BBOMG Schedule of Events
We're still working on the schedule of events for the full BBOMG weekend. We are trying to keep people's options open so they can do whatever they like. One thing is for sure, you'll have a blast no matter what you decide to participate in.
BBOMG Banquet
Arrangements are also being made for the BBOMG 3 banquet. The banquet will be on Friday night and the BBOMG reception/party will be on the Saturday night. Similar to last year advance payment will be required to secure your seats at the banquet. We do know that we are going to have to limit the number of attendees to the banquet to 300 due to the limited capacity of the room. Details to follow.
Contest
In the coming weeks we will also be releasing some information on a little contest that we will do. If you're lucky enough to win this could save you some money!! All you need to do to enter is to make sure you are registered for BBOMG meaning your name must appear on Rick’s list ( http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showpo...71&postcount=2 ). Details to come! Also, make sure Lisa (CajunCamaroChic) has your complete information as requested on the same thread.

This year, we'll be holding a very special auction after dinner.THE VERY LAST MIKE JUDGE LITHO will be auctioned off. That’s right! Litho #200 of 200! Mike has spent countless hours creating these master pieces for a lucky few to enjoy. These autographed lithos are a fantastic example of the purpose behind the BBOMG event - The relationship between the people who build the cars and the people that buy them. Litho #200 will come with a personalized letter of authenticity that states it is the last official Litho. 100% of the proceeds of this auction will go to Big Brothers / Big Sisters of Oshawa/Whitby.

Lisa Graves (CajunCamaroChic) has booked the DJ, so see her the evening of the banquet to make your contribution or drop your donation off when you arrive for the banquet. After the DJ has been paid, any additional funds will be donated to charity!
Also, we have put together an interactive map you may like to download to your smart phone or computer which will help you visualize the area and locations while in Oshawa.

A few things to know about Ontario traffic laws.
* You can confidently drive at 120 KPH (70 mph) without getting a ticket on highways which start with the number "4" eg 401.
* You can turn right on a red in Ontario
* Orange lines and dashes on highways signify a construction zone.
* Radar detectors are illegal and can be confiscated on the spot.
* Using a cell phone or similar device while driving a vehicle is a $125 fine.
Safe travels and we'll see everyone soon!
