British Swap Meet and Fair Sanichton Acres Sunday May 5th 2019

#1 Post by island dormy » Mon Apr 15, 2019 9:24 pm

Sunday May 5th 2019 is the day for the Old English car clubs annual restoration and swap meet it will again be held at Sanction Acres ( on the way to the Ferry terminal and airport), just off the Pat Bay Highway.
It is a great event and normally attracts 10 or so Land rovers. It is advisable to be there by 9:00 am as it fills up fast, the parking is limited.
If any body is interested in convoying down from the Duncan area we will meet at the Dog House Parking lot at 7:45 for a 8:00 am SHARP departure to the show.
Bring the usual items, lunch, lawn chairs, camera, radio, you know all the normal trip items, except maybe this time it will probably be safe to leave the recovery gear in the garage.

Hi Franko

No you do not have to be a member, it is $5.00 per person to a maximum of $10 per vehicle so if you have one of the rare 12 seater 109 station wagons its a real deal. Bring your whole family, maybe some friends, the more the merrier.
