Vancouver Chapter Boxing Day 2009

Boxing Day 2009 dawned cold, icy, and foggy, but as the morning passed the fog began to lift and the day turned into quite a nice one.  About 50 cars gathered at the MacMillan Science Centre for the Vancouver Chapter's annual Boxing Day Run.  The years of the cars ranged from the early teens right up into the 70s.  As well as a good showing of Fords, Cadillacs, and Packards, there was a wide variety of makes from North America, Europe, and Japan.

The tour left the parking lot at 11:00 AM and headed downtown and around Stanley Park, continuing the tradition begun by the auto clubs of over 100 years ago.  After leaving the park the group headed to the truck museum in Port Coquitlam, where hot coffee and snacks were a welcome treat and everyone had a chance to view the interesting vehicles on display.

Thanks to those Vancouver Chapter members who worked to make this event another successful day.
