Fall Harvest Road Rally

On Thursday, October 8, starting at 11:45AM, the Newman Center Men’s Club will be hosting its annual Fall Harvest Road Rally. We will begin our journey by meeting at The Fieldstone Country Inn, 5986 South Transit Road, Lockport (just east of Transit Rd.). We will meet in the Fieldstone parking lot (north side of the building) at 11:45am and depart on our journey at noon sharp!
We will travel as a group, and you will be provided with a list of destinations. Stops along the way will include Becker Farms, (try to keep the boys out of the Beer Pub), Rush’s Farm Market (best potatoes in the world), Miller’s Amish Farm Market, and Harris Farms (great selection of home-made pies).
Then we will travel back to the Fieldstone Country Inn where we will dine at 4:30 PM. Dinner choices will be; Waldorf Chicken Salad, hot turkey sandwich with mashed potatoes, or beef on Weck with a side of French fries. The cost of the dinner is $34.00, and this includes a soup & salad bar, along with coffee and a cold beverage, and tip.
This will be a great chance to stock up on all your Fall produce needs: apples, pumpkins, potatoes, corn, squash, and much, much more.
If you plan on attending, please contact Bill Pistner at 716-472-3394 or pistner@roadrunner.com, by Tuesday, October 6. Please feel free to invite your friends and family to enjoy a great Fall Day in the country. This event is open to all.
