Can anyone confirm whether the Valley Forge event tomorrow is on the north or south side of the Betzwood Bridge?  Two years ago, it was in the Fatlands on the north side, but last year it was moved to the south side.  I am recruiting some newbies and would like to give them correct directions.  Thank you.

Yes. from the description it is at the north end of the bridge and what I'd call the east end of the Fatlands map.
