Dutch Tulip Festival Ottawa Friday 13 May - Sun 15 May 2016
The Dutch Tulip Festival will again be taking place in Ottawa Fri 13 May - Sun 15 May 2016. Jeff Mosher will be the Period Military Vehicle Coordinator.
Details are sketchy at this time as we are waiting to here back from the organizers but some info for now:
Location will be the green area at Lansdowne Park on 450 Queen Elizabeth Drive in Ottawa right next to where the Ottawa Red Blacks play. Satellite photo of Google Maps shows the area under construction but that is now complete.

Same concept as last year - Period Second World War Military encampment with displays.
German re-enactors and vehicles welcome once more.
They will be feeding and watering us again with the idea that food must be delivered to us or served close by our displays due to the amount of the crowd.
There may be a battle again like the 2015 event. This is being discussed.
There will be some compensation for those who transport military vehicles to the show.
Organizers are looking in to shower facilities.
There will be AC Power.
Organizers want to have a 40s USO style dance on Saturday night.
Organizers are looking in to having some form of Victory parade(s) in the area with Veterans.
Organizers are looking for a secure area for parking of civilian vehicles.
