Ontario - May Long Weekend Cruise (and other upcoming events) - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

CanadianCamaro · 05-03-2010, 11:18 AM

OK all - I know there's a few of you itchin' to have another cruise/GTG since the last one local was really Kingston. Over the next week or 2 I'll start a thread with a full list of events and cruise nights for southern Ontario / GTA and include links to as much information and other resources that I can (I encourage people in other major regions to do the same and perhaps we can get the top 3-4 "stickied" in the Canada section). But for now, here's a couple upcoming events for May and we'll dedicate this thread to our next cruise.

Upcoming May Events - GTA and Southern Ontario:

(Full list to be posted soon)

GTA Long weekend Cruise:

UPDATE
CANCELLED
Sorry folks - The weather is playin' games with us here. Saturday looks like a fail, Sunday can't make up it's mind, and while Monday looks good, I am unfortunately committed to somethign else. So it looks like we're going to have to take a pass on this one.
Keep an eye on the GTA events thread for the next event

Date:
Sunday May 24th

Rain Date:
None

Start time:
9-10am

Start location:
TBD

Route:
Will be announced just prior

Destination:
Looking for suggestions here folks. Here's a few ideas with approximate one-way travel time from Brampton

Suggestions:
Tobermory or somewhere up the Bruce Peninsula - 4 hrs
Penetanguishene/Midland area - 2 hrs
Long Point Lake Erie - 2.5 hrs

I would propose that we depart sometime around 9am and plan to have lunch at the destination location. I will coordinate the route, lunch reservations etc. once we get details and numbers worked out.

I would love to do any of the above. If we get a fair number of cars and/or we're going further away I'd keep the route to the main roads keeping in mind drive quality and time in mind.

For now, Anyone interested in a cruise on the long weekend please chime in!

Going to Hylton BBQ...

CloudXTC · 05-03-2010, 08:35 PM

HINEY1 · 05-03-2010, 08:45 PM

I think you should all cruise to Hylton's barbeque on the 22nd.
I'm sure his wife would love 30 Camaros in the driveway!

Perhaps Wasaga Beach, be a great picture of us all lined up along here http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=d&sourc...1,6.36,,1,6.49 Although it would probably require leaving at 3 in the morning in order to get there early enough to find the parking lot this empty.

OK - 4.5 hrs for you, 5.5 hrs from my side of the city.

I thought about that - but came to the same conclusion. Long weekends, Wasaga Beach and trying to find decent parking for our cars are 3 things that don't mix. There are some amazing photo ops out on the Bruce Penninsula though

Saturday May 22 works for me, Sunday not so good.

RCLapCar · 05-04-2010, 09:36 PM

Is there anything interesting west of the GTA (London area and beyond)? Sadly my knowledge of driving destination in Ontario is a bit lacking.

Farmer's fields.... that's about it. That's why I suggested these possible destinations. The drive to each and the scenery is quite nice.

But it seems that there isn't much interest around here........
