Chester Run

BATANS to Chester and the surrounds. Sunday, September 15.

We are fortunate to be invited to view Colin MacDonald’s auto collection in Chester. He has an eclectic collection, ranging from a 1950’s Ford Prefect to a Second World War motorcycle and much more.

Schedule

  • Meet at Chester, 10:30am at the yellow garage, 37 Valley Road:
    • There is parking on the streets nearby, and you may use the gym parking area at 133 Queen Street, which is only a 2 minute walk away.
  • After viewing the autos, and chatting, and such, we’ll proceed to the Chester Golf Club for lunch at 12:00 noon:
    • Arrangements will be made to have a separate parking area for the BATANS group, more on that later.
    • This will be a buffet style lunch, featuring haddock chowder, also a turkey vegetable soup or similar and assorted sandwiches, coffee and tea for $24 per person. A cash bar will be available.
  • After lunch, at approximately 1:30pm, we will have a drive around the Aspotogan Peninsula.
    • A stop at the Bayswater Beach Park is a possibility and there is the Swiss Air 111 memorial at Bayswater as well.

The event ends when we get to Highway 3 near Hubbards and we each go our own ways.
