I know its early, but i think we should plan this, BIG Canadian Meet in the summer...US people welcome to come too!&# Options

[Valo666]

So, ive tried, and tried, and TRIED! to get a big canadian meet going. Only 2 semi big meets we have had was the GTA meet earlier in the summer where 5 ppl came out, and the thanks giving GTA meet where again...5 cars came out. Any ways, i wanna do this right. I know this will probably get moved to the meets/events section, but im posting it here any ways because im trying to get some ideas of where to have it, when to have it and if people would actually come.

So, we need to figure out some where thats convient to have it where we can have enough room for how ever many cars to come, some thing to do besides just hang out in a parking lot, and some where that we can spend more then a day there. I pretty much wanna do the whole CSP and DWG thing but canadian.

Im thinkin that we should either do it in Montreal, or Quebec city. My reasoning for that is so that we can get people from all over ontario, quebec and the east coast to come out, aswell as be close enough to the boarder to have people from the U.S. to come up too. They are big enough cities, there will easily be some where to have the meet, plenty of places to stay for a decent price, lots to do around town, and some nice drives just outside of town.

When? im thinking we should have it begginging of summer or mid summer. Sometime when people can enjoy the weather.

What to do? i think depending on where we end up, we should go for a cruise. If we go to Quebec City, maybe do a cruise through the old city, out of town and up to Mt St. Anne? Montreal...i donno cuz last time i was there i was 12 and dont really remember alot about the trip.

But i seriously wanna have a big big meet. Im thinking if people dont wanna drive alone, we can do a kind of convoy along the way. Pick people up as we go. Like it would stat off with me, sarah and maybe Mike, if he comes in Windsor, then we would drive up the 401, pickup any one in london area, drive down the 403 and pickup any one along the way, drive up to kitchener and pickup the few members we have there, into toronto meet up with who evers coming, then stop along the way as we need to untill we all get to either montreal or quebec city. I think it would b crazy having like 20 celicas driving down the highway for like 6 hours one right after the other.

This could easily easily work, all we need is some support. I can even see if i can talk to any of my friends in the industry and maybe get them to sponsor the canadian sector of 6gc and see if we can get some prizes/merchandise for people.

What do you guys think??

im hoping for an entire weekend event. Spend 1 day just hanging out meeting every one, etc. Then the next day go for a cruise for a few hours.

From windsor to Qubec city its about 12 and a half hours, but im definatly willing to make the drive.

But also, depending on how many people are coming we will try and get a discount rate for the hotel.

that sounds like fun, I'm all for that. I can take a vacation anytime that I want, as long as I have days banked up. There is always the unexpected but since it's planned ahead, chances of me going are greater. Sometime next summer would be awesome.

Count me in !

argh, Bryan..you got me really tempted to go to this trip, but i recommend Montreal, i was up there in July..haha made it in 9 hours---i had a cop scanner at the time though, so i was flooring like 160 the entire way anyway, Montreal is a great place man, and lotsss of things to do, we oughta go hit up this one club called Red Lite..oh man, i'll never forget it there, it was awesome...but yeah, im seriously considering about attending to this meet up. Count me in for now, i'll most likely be able to make it unless i have to attend some stupid intermission or w/e for school in summer.

I wanna have at least 20-30 people coming from both canada and the US. Im gonna post this link up on Toyota Nation aswell cuz i know of a few guys who float around there more then here.

[DangerboyJr]

Dont see why it should be a problem. We can cruise up there together Brian. Considering Im about a 20 min jog from your route. Or we could meet in Kitchener/Cambridge

I'm defenitly in Bryan. You know what I think of it (Canadian Meet). And I shurely can* bring alot of Celidudes from the Club Celica Québec!! The only thing is, we're an all-gen club. What you think of it? Anyways, I'm in and HorseHead too. May I suggest another place for this meet? I'd say Sherbrooke/Mont-Orford. Closer than anything else to the mass (I believe so) Located close to the Maine border, with a beautiful scenic view with the mountains in the background! Let me know what you guys think of it but count me in whatever happens:)

Yeah! Québec City could be very busy at that time, lots of tourists and traffic. Could be a nightmare just to go around. Sherbrooke would be a better place for shure. But yes I'm in whatever you decide. Don't want to miss that!!! Btw, any american 6gc members? C'mon guys, why not making the biggest 6g meet ever!!!!!!!

[Valo666]

just curious...is Sherbrooke relatively by-lingual? Im just asking for thouse of us who arent fulent in french.

Paul also brought up a good point, maybe we should have the meet a bit earlier then summer and on a long weekend. Maybe Victoria day long weekend? That way we get the monday off any ways so it wont mean taking that extra day off work and a worry free comute back home.


Any one against having it a bit earlier?? Questions? Concerns? Suggestions? im open to any thing.
