The exit off 72 is #100B and it is 3.3 miles from the exit to the park. YOu will see two signs at the corner, one for the Nelson Center, and one for Lincoln park. The Nelson center is the big building in the center of the park...

Mike, Post/email/distribute my cell number etc. with these directions as a
valid plan "B" (see my sig...)
All drivers comming from the east or north are advised that HWY's 72, 74 and
55 are Targeted speed enforcement on Sundays (Bears games). It's not
uncommon to see 2 laser speed traps and 10-15 troopers in the 40 mile
stretch between Champaign and Decatur..
Drivers comming from the south (ky, etc), take the HWY all the way, resist
the urge to take local roads, TRUST ME. 24/57 north to 57, to 64 to 55.
Comming from:
North: 55 south to the Sangamon Avenue exit. Go west 3-4 miles on Sangamon
avenue. When you drive in front of the fairgrounds, you are close... The
first stop SIGN is at the corner of 5th and sangamon, which is the north
east corner of lincoln park. YOu can then enter the park by either going
straight through the intersection and turning left into the park, or turn
left at the intersection, go 1/2 mile, then turn right into the park.
South: 55 north, same directions as above
East: 72 west to 55 north, then same as above.
West: 72 east joins with 55 north going while by-passing Springfield, just
stay on 55 when it splits back up, go 1 more exit (to sangamon ave.) and
then same as above.
