Looking for a Pittsburgh Fighter Practice

Hey everyone,
Small back story first. I live in central PA and my girlfriend currently is living in pittsburgh. I end up visiting her on weekends (saturday night - sunday night) but with her having to work a few hours on sunday I was curious if anyone knew of fighter practices where I could get a little stick time in around the squirrel hill/greenfield/waterfront area. She works around 12-4pm.
Either an address/email/phone number of the fighters running the deal so i could contact them would be amazing.
Thanks,
Meurig

Greetings good gentles,
Come take in the fresh air and sunshine. Join us at the First Outdoor BMDL Sunday fighter practice

I don't know of any practice out in the squirrel hill/greenfield/waterfront area. The Washington Blvd site is very close to the Pittsburgh Zoo.
Hope to see you there.

The Washington Blvd practice is about 15 minutes from Squirrel Hill, add a couple more minutes if you're coming from Greenfield or the waterfront.

This is perfect! Where I'd be coming from is the major intersection in Squirrel Hill (Hazelwood Ave, Beechwood Blvd, and Brown Hills Rd). Shouldn't be too hard to get there
.
Thanks again everyone

The actual location is

When I was BMDL KM I made sure we could use GoogleMaps for all of our various fighting sites; directions from Sq Hill should be pretty simple.
