It’s that time of year again! Winter is closing in and for some that means the days of driving their classic car are numbered. But don’t pull the cover over your baby too soon, because the 3rd Annual Thanksgiving Day Sea to Sky Run is back! Once again, this is a quick, local, and fun meetup to “give thanks” for another fine season of motoring. (Note: The details and times are exactly the same as last year, so if you were there you know where to go!)
What: A casual cruise and meetup with fellow classic car owners of all pre-’79 marques and types. Drive the best part of the Sea-to-Sky Highway on a quiet holiday morning, and enjoy the company of classic car nuts before you have to head off to the in-laws for thanksgiving dinner! We have planned it so that you can be back home by midday. Some of you might have done a Sea to Sky run recently with your various car clubs, but its always fun to mix all the marques together and meet new people. And really, who can say no to the beautiful views and winding turns past ocean and mountains – especially on a holiday!
This year’s event will benefit Sea to Sky Food Banks. Please bring a non-perishable boxed or canned food donation (canned fruit, veggies, tuna, etc.).
When: Thanksgiving Monday, October 10, 9:00-11:00am. CONVOY DEPARTS PARK ROYAL AT 8:30AM. (SEE BELOW for detailed convoy meetup times)
Where: Galileo Coffee, 173 Highway 99, Britannia Beach, BC
