On Sunday July 24, we are heading for a Niagara cruise and stopping at Reif Winery at Niagara on the Lake for their annual Corvette, Classic and Hot Rod Car show fund raising event. There will be over 200 vehicles showcased and all proceeds benefit the Niagara Peninsula Children’s Foundation. Note we are not going there to show our cars, but just as visitors at the event.

After our stop at Reif, we will be cruising down the very scenic Niagara Parkway all the way to Fort Erie, where one of our members Shawna (aka Gecko) has generously offered her home to host a club BBQ for the afternoon. There is a swimming pool on site so bring your swim gear if you plan to cool off or just want to catch some sun. Cost to attend the BBQ will be $10/person which goes towards the purchase of food and drinks.

This is expected to be a day event where the cruise and winery portion take place from 10am-1230pm, and the cruise to Fort Erie and BBQ begin from 1230pm to whenever. Members may choose to participate only a portion of the day and depart at anytime but please make your preference clear on your reply so we can confirm head count for the BBQ and for the cruise. Note the $10 commitment to the BBQ will be collected in advance one week prior to our event via paypal.

You can always join us for the June 24 track day. It would be a great way to experience your car. Even if you don't track, you can hang out with us for the evening. Speak with swbatte as I am working him to come down also. Only 155km from London.

We are just 2 short weeks away from the event. Some of you have verbally confirmed your participation but we have yet to see your post. We are using this thread to keep track of head counts, so please post your response to the following:

1) Are you attending the Cruise, BBQ or BOTH?
2) How many people are attending?

Thanks everyone!
 
Hello all sounds like fun..:rolleyes:

Count me in for the cruise..:eek:

:frown: Unfortunately I have a prior commitment so I can't make the BBQ portion of this event

Gary:smile:
 
This is going to be a great cruise and BBQ!
Shawn is planning a wonderful drive using a special "Bike route" that she knows through the Niagara area, so please join us.

Bram
 
we will be there too. +3. Please include us for the Barbe TOO! Lets all be there and make this a big event. Shawna has been trying to put this together for years. Will be a good time for sure.
 
It would be great to finally meet you Gary!!

It's great to see all the babies and kids coming together. Jonathan will be almost 6 months and will attend with us and grandma, so that should be fun time. I better get him accustom to the pool or there will be plenty of crying by the BBQ.

That's great news Richie. It's about time you come out again and show us your car. Who else are you bringing along? Tony and Bobby? Look forward to some fun times.

John and Christine will be there.

Wow..... So looking forward to catch up with Christine, you too John!

Will be fun for all.............just bring hats, sunscreen, bathing suit and towel as if it's hot out it will be stinking hot here :>). Don't need chairs and if is is hot there will be lots of shade area under the Yamaha Canopy.

** Parking................the driveway is a long single drive in so if it's dry and hasn't rained in several days it is okay to park on the South (your left) side on the grass as you drive in or space out on the driveway around the circle and double drive area...........
 
Here is a brilliant map by Shawna to go along with her instructions above. Never knew about her artistic talent.

Just a thought, it may be easier parking diagonally with the left front wheel on the green, but sure we will figure something out next week.
