Odd, I thought I posted this but maybe I didn't hit post!
Since there is no Boston Pizza meet on June 13th, I think we should try and get as many Airspeed folks out to our latest Classic Car Adventures event.
If you're anything like us, you've got a stack of magazines sitting on the shelf awaiting recycling or re-reading. Here at the Classic Car Adventure's offices, we think it time to give those Automotive magazines new life, and meet other car enthusiasts in the process! Surely other enthusiasts have magazines we wish we had bought, and ours have more reading life left in them. So we thought, "why don't we try and get our Classic Car friends together and have a magazine swap?!" If you've been to any of our events before, you know we think classic cars are best enjoyed while moving...so of course we'll be hosting a drive as well!
Similar to our Thanksgiving Run, our new "Rag Run" is a free-to-enter event with a short (approximately 45min-1hr) drive along some fantastic twisty roads. While there is no entry fee, we are asking each car to bring at least one-non perishable food item for the Food Bank. We definitely hope you'll want to be involved in our magazine swap, to do so you simply need to bring three classic car magazines that you wish to swap out for three new (to you) ones. We're not worried about whether the magazine you bring is one-marque specific, multi-branded, a particular style or even what year the magazine is from. If it's got reading life left in it, it's perfect!
Our drive through the valley will have simple to follow directions, in the typical Classic Car Adventures style. We're heading out onto twisty roads which will take you back to those years before 6-lane highways from point A to point B. We've always felt the fun is in getting there, even if we're doing a loop back to lunch! Speaking of Lunch, the Mission Springs Brewery has brought back their Sunday brunch due to popular demand...and we plan to try as much of the menu as possible! If you haven't yet been to the Mission Springs Restaurant, you're in for a treat. Whether it's the antique gas pumps, the '46 pickup hanging from the ceiling, or the spark plugs built into your table...there is something to interest every car nut.
When: Sunday June 13th, 2010. Driver's meeting at 10:00am, Lunch (optional) following our drive.
Where: Meeting at the Mission Springs Restaurant parking lot. 7160 Oliver Street, at Lougheed Highway, Mission BC
What to Bring: At least one non-perishable food item for the food bank. Three classic-car related magazines (of any type).
This event is open to any make, and any model. While our events are certainly geared towards cars made in 1979 and earlier, the most important part is that you're a classic car enthusiast!
