Canuck Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 We had a great time at the Western Meet. Other than Thursday being extremely hot the weather was great the rest of the weekend. There were 18 members in attendance and 17 Monte Carlos. It was great to see everyone again and also meet the members who attended their first club event.

72-CLASSIC_RIDE Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 What a GREAT event it was! Meeting the New Members and reconnecting with the others made this one special. Of course Life presents challenges that prevent Members from attendance and you All were in my thoughts also. Hope to see everyone next Year What a diverse group of individuals all with the same passion for our cars and it shows during these events. It almost encompasses the effort(s) made by those members who were instrumental in ensuring it's success. So, as always, a very Special Thanx to Aaron and April for their endless efforts making those events so memorable for the rest of us who have attended. Matt & Christine mapped our Beautiful Friday Cruise Route and provided the logistic help & Lunch in making this a very Scenic and pleasurable experience. The views were epic A Special Thanx to all (4) of you for making this one of the best in my memory. I say this every time, Gonna be a tough one to beat but somehow they do................. Looking forward to the Longer drive up to Penticton next year. Thanx to everyone in Attendance for their contribution....................... Until next Year Doug 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

72 LS5 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 That looks like such a great event! I really like the fact that you actually cruised together through the countryside. That part is missing from the car scene down here and that's the most fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted August 16, 2018 Author Share Posted August 16, 2018 I really like the fact that you actually cruised together through the countryside. We do cruises during every Western Meet which is fun for everyone. Even if someone attends the meet without a car they can ride in other members' cars.
