in the Academy Crossing  Shopping Center off High Street (RT 17). 

DRIVING DIRECTIONS: Please note these directions will take you into Churchland via Rt 164.  We think this is an easier way than Rt 17 due to construction and many traffic lights along this route.  You will enter the shopping center from Churchland Blvd instead of from High Street (Rt 17) We hope this is not too confusing.  But please call us if you need help finding us!
