Classic and Vintage Car Picnic - Halls Green, Hertfordshire

April 17, 2012 - PRLog -- CLASSIC CARS FOR A CLASSIC PICNIC
Now in its fourth year, the Letchworth Garden City Classic & Vintage Car Club picnic and family day held at Halls Green, Weston, Hertfordshire, will be taking place on Saturday 9th June – the weekend after the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations.
The picnic has become an immensely popular annual event, held in a beautiful rural setting, and attracts large numbers of wonderful vehicles and their occupants. Evocative names from the past are all represented including Rolls-Royce, Jaguar, Bentley, Healey, Morris, Austin, Riley and many more. Whilst most vehicles are pre-1970 there is always a good turnout of modern day classics including Porsche, Maserati and Ferrari.
Owners bring along their cars and picnics and enjoy a relaxing and quintessentially English afternoon listening to the band before indulging in  scrumptious scones and cream from the tea tent. A highly entertaining car gymkhana gently tests the driving skills of entrants and there is a variety of stalls to wander around.
The venue at Fairclough Hall Farm  is the permanent home of Harriet Kelsall’s bespoke jewellery design showroom and jewellery-making demonstrations are held throughout the afternoon. Children are not left out of the fun and get to enjoy a bouncy castle and slides.
Entry on the day is £5 per vehicle. Pedestrians £1. Gates open at 11am and the event closes at 5pm.
