A Map for Brookside's Block Party

On Saturday, Noor and Eli help make a map for Brookside's block party. They want visitors to find places without asking for help. The map key says triangle is the playground, square is the notice board, circle is the lemonade stand, and star is the first-aid table. The picnic tables are marked with a diamond. On the map, the notice board is in the center. The playground is west of it, the lemonade stand is east of it, the first-aid table is north, and the picnic tables are south. Noor starts at the playground and walks east, then north, to reach the first-aid table. Eli starts at the picnic tables, walks north, then east, to reach the lemonade stand.
