We are returning to Penticton for the 2017 Western Meet. This is a spectacular 3-day event with car shows, wine cruise, collector car auction, parade, live entertainment, etc. The event is held in the middle of BC wine country with large lakes, beaches and beautiful scenery. This event will provide us with special parking for our club in the park by the beach and they have added a Monte Carlo class for awards (1st and 2nd prize)! In 2015 we had our largest Western Meet with 27 members and 24 Monte Carlos at this location driving from long distances.

Sounds like fun!! Maybe we will book all the rooms at the Rosedale Motel.

I'm certain we'll get most of them. It would be good if all three cottages were booked by members so we can party over there without disturbing others that are not there for the meet.

There are only 13 rooms left at the Rosedale Motel. If you need a room for the meet, I suggest you book as early as you can. This hotel will fill up. It would be cool to fill it with all FGMCC members.
