Chili Run to Letchworth
This event is RAIN OR SHINE! We have an enclosed pavilion so if it’s cold and rainy, you can get out of the weather.
Join the Niagara Region PCA for a fun scenic drive to Letchworth State Park, the “Grand Canyon of the East”.
8:30am – Meet at Garber Porsche of Rochester, 3955 W. Henrietta Rd., Rochester, NY 14623. They are very graciously hosting breakfast for us again this year. We need a headcount for Garber, deadline for responding is October 10th.
If you prefer to skip the breakfast but would still like to participate in the drive, please arrive by 9:15 so that you can attend the Driver’s Meeting.
We are anticipating two run groups from Garber to Letchworth led by club members
Here is the route, if you would like to print it out – route
9:30am– Departure for Letchworth State Park. We will tour the park’s Portageville entrance, where the event will technically end. You may continue through the park at your leisure and stop at the South Highbanks Pavilion at the North end of the park.
The park entry fee is $10. Bring cash.
Lunch 1:15-3:15pm – South Highbanks Pavilion at Letchworth
There will be CHILI, hotdogs, and salads. Drinks: Water, soda, beer, wine and coffee.
Anyone who would like to help with setup and the grill, please contact John Jacobs.
Everything has to be removed from the shelter when we leave. “Anything you bring into the park; you must take back out with you. Letchworth is a “carry in – carry out” park.” There will be no trash pickup after we leave. We would appreciate it if you would take leftovers and extras back home with you. We would like to leave a good impression with the park personnel. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
Bring your hiking shoes, and camera.
Please RSVP to Renee Sliwinski. Again, please indicate if you are attending the breakfast and/or Chili Run and how many. Due to the rising costs, there will be a $10/pp charge for the Chili Run. This will be collected at the South Highbanks Pavillion. Again, exact change is requested.
RSVP deadline is October 10th, to allow for final preparations. We are also looking for desserts. If you would like to bring something, please include that intention in your rsvp. Thank you.
Looking forward to seeing everyone!
