Canuck Posted August 16, 2023 Author Share Posted August 16, 2023 Just to let everyone know I have secured all 26 rooms at a hotel in Summerland for the meet but will not know the rates until the fall. You can expect roughly $170 per night (Canadian dollars) and up depending on the room type you get. Once I have the rates I will post the hotel information for booking. The dates will be Sep 12th, 2024 and leaving the 16th (4 nights). If someone wishes to arrive a day or two early to take in some of the scenery they can do so. There's plenty to see and do here (hiking, wineries, beaches, steam train ride, zip lining, etc). I live in Summerland and plan to take that whole week off so I will be available. The hotel is walking distance to the Saturday car show and downtown shops. There's a lot of amenities nearby (restaurants, fast food, grocery store, gas stations, liquor store, etc) and parking for trucks/trailers. The last meet here in 2019 we filled every room of this hotel and hope to do so again. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted October 4, 2023 Author Share Posted October 4, 2023 I've been discussing the meet with the event organizers and have a great spot in the park picked out for our group. We'll have some nice shade for the day. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
