Our club has two annual meets each year which draw members from all over the United States and Canada. We choose an existing car show event to attend as a group then add our own activities, awards, dash plaques and door prizes for club members. Attending an Eastern Meet or Western Meet is a great way to engage with members, show off your ride, make connections for parts and learn more about these great cars. These meets are always a great time and bringing your Monte Carlo is not required.

This meet has been cancelled.

The news came out August 20th regarding new protocols for the BC interior due to increasing covid-19 cases. The drag racing event is cancelled, restaurants are closing up and Creston has become one of the highest infection rates in BC so we have no choice but to cancel the meet.

Please ensure you cancel your hotel reservations.

Location: Creston, BC, Canada
Date: Sep 2-5, 2021

The 2021 Western Meet will be in Creston, BC. The town of Creston is located on the Canadian border and offers some great scenery in the area. The meet includes two great cruises, drag racing and our awards banquet. We expect roughly 15-20 members to attend. We will update the web site and message forum periodically as information comes available. If you have any questions regarding this meet, please contact Aaron at dodsyaaron@gmail.com or 250-462-8444.

Each person just simply needs to book the room. If you book online through this web site please ensure you call them with the credit card information to complete the reservation. Your reservation is not kept unless you give them the credit card info. You can also try booking through other sites if you wish (Expedia, etc). I suspect that with it being the labor day long weekend that they may start to fill up rooms so I suggest you book soon. If you have trouble getting a room there please contact Aaron (dodsyaaron@gmail.com or 250-462-8444).
