Noise Abatement

If you were flying a C172SP out of a noise sensitive field like KSNA in the States, how would you take-off as quietly as possible. Would you go for Best-Angle-of-Climb or Best-Rate-of-Climb, or would you not bother in a 172? I assume the difference is that one gets you highest in the shortest horizontal distance, whereas the other gets you highest in the shortest possible time, is this correct, and if so which is better for noise?

Presumably you would do a no flap landing (for minimum throttle settings), or would you not bother about this as well?
