October 15 Back Roads
Tour and Appreciation Lunch
In keeping with PBCA members love of
combining driving their LBCs with lots of
eating, our Saturday October
15th event will be a Back Roads Tour in Baldwin County
ending at a local eatery for lunch. A portion of the
lunch will be covered by the club as appreciation to the members who
worked hard to make the 2006 Pensacola Beach Show a success. We
will meet at 11:00 am west of Pensacola at the Tiger Foods parking
lot at U.S. Hwy 98 and Bauer Road. We will proceed via a scenic
route and end at Lesters Restaurant at 24821 Canal Road, Orange Beach,
AL. Bring a pencil and your powers of observation as there will be a test
with awards to be presented to the most observant.
There will be a charge for lunch of $8.00
per person for PBCA members. The club will pick up the balance of the
check. Bar beverages will be charged separately and will be the
responsibility of the individuals. This event replaces the "Fish
Camp Tour" and $5.00 lunch we used make to Bon Secour,
AL, before the Fish Camp was sold to become the site for more condos
and the prices of meals in the beach areas began to go the
sky.
Set this date aside and
get let your appetite grow.
