Thanks Doug and Merville for planning and organizing such a great event and to everyone who came out to make it a success. We had 13 vehicles and over 20 people. After our drive, we had a very nice lunch at the Beacon Landing Restaurant on the Sidney waterfront.

Hi Everyone,
Well, things have been happening, we have a great revised website created by our new Website Master, Duane Chapman. Check it out and join the forum which is moderated by Shawn and Duane.
No Meeting on 15 March as we are having a drive on the Sunday and if any points should be considered I will talk about them then.
Peninsula Run – Next Sunday 17 March – Not only is it St Patrick’s Day, but there is a Peninsula Run designed by the ’infamous’ Doug and Merville team. The drive questions are being sent by email to all whom have emailed Doug stating they wanted to participate. If you want to have some Sunday fun, email Doug and Merville at douglashall@telus.net . We need to know numbers as we are having lunch at the much heralded Beacon Landing Restaurant and Pub. If you are not sure if you can make it, and make a late decision; join us at the Beaver Lake Filter Beds Parking Lot for a 10:30 am start.. Check out the “Next Event” tab on the website for the Peninsula Run information.
