Thanks Peter... believe it or not, I was just about to ask!

As per previous years, will there be camping for those who are coming from distance?

I look forward to seeing all of you again.

Re: Stuart,

The event always takes place at the museum building by Oshawa Airport... it's at the very top of Stevenson Road North (a few hundred yards north of Rossland). You can't miss it - just pull up "Oshawa Airport, Oshawa, ON" on Google maps and follow Stevenson Road North.

Camping is on the grassy verges surrounding the parking areas. For facilities the museum folks can brief you.

The weather reports suggest campers may get wet if they don't choose their location with care. If careful, they might get away with damp instead of soaked.

Default You're right..

...looks like a rain day. We'll make it through OK. The parts department inside the building should have a good day.
ALSO...Stevenson Road has a nice new exit from the 401. Straight North to the show.

See you there.

Affirmative on that! Despite the rotten weather, it was a pleasure to see all those who drove in from all over Ontario to be there... yeah, we got wet, but who cares?? Congratulations Peter, ya done good once again!

PS: Who owns that V-100 Commando that showed up? No one I spoke to seemed to know him... but the vehicle was/is amazing - I didn't even think there was one in Canada!

Thanks again Peter!

Geoff
