The London to Brighton Commemorative Run - November 6, 2011
The Vancouver Coast Branch of the Old English Car Club of B.C. are pleased to announce this year’s event with some important changes.
There will be a new starting venue, a new route and a new finish destination.
The starting point will be the BC Society of Railroad Engineers clubhouse at 120 N. Willingdon Avenue in North Burnaby.
The first car away will be at 10:00am. The route will take you over the hills of Burnaby, through New Westminster, across the Patullo Bridge, onto River Road and out into the valley.
The destination finish will be White Rock by the seaside.
There will be a very special welcome for us starting with all entrants receiving goody bags which will include coupons for local eateries. There are four fish and chip shops, a pub plus a number of different restaurants close to our parking area.
Our arrival is being sponsored by The Celtic Treasure Chest store and owner Steve McVittie, who is putting together our welcome, will also have a marching pipe band in action plus Celtic displays of dancing, crafts and more.
So a special festival is being planned in conjunction with our event. Bring the family and enjoy the day. It should be mentioned that for out of town entrants White Rock will be closer to the ferries and the border. Entrant fee is $2.00 per car or a donation to the food bank. Registration will be at the starting point and will begin at 9:00 am.
We hope to see you on November 6th.
