October 11th Field Trip: Rusty Relics

Posted on October 6, 2023 by Gabriola Photography Club

Gabriola Photography Club’s next field trip is on Wednesday afternoon, October 11. We’ll be focusing our lenses on “Rusty Relics” – some of Gabriola’s old and abandoned vehicles.

Gather – rain or shine – at 1 pm in the Agi Hall parking lot on South Road, Gabriola Island. Please park in the north lot (the end closest to the ferry terminal). From there, we’ll drive and/or carpool to a number of sites, ending back in the Village.

If you plan to participate please email us ahead of time to let us know, so that we can contact you in the event of any last-minute changes.
