Horseless Carriage Club members are ‘Chasing the Goose around Grey Bruce’ as part of a tour hosted by Southern Ontario and New Jersey regions. The Club is stationed at the Best Western Inn on the Bay in Owen Sound and July 17 through July 22 are touring scenic and historic sites around Grey and Bruce counties. On Tuesday, their tour brought them to Saugeen Shores.

Members from Texas, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Manitoba, Ontario and more could be seen riding their horseless carriages around Southampton and Port Elgin. There are approximately 60 vehicles in all on this year’s tour.

“This is my first time here touring with this group,” said 1915 White Model 45 Touring owner, Charles Tosch. “We leave [the Best Western] every day and go in a different direction.”

Tosch and his navigator, Warner Buck came on the tour from Brandon, Manitoba. Buck said White started off making sewing machines, then switched to cars, then eventually made farm equipment.
