HEY Toolman,


Does OCC have some members near Hawkesbury?

[Burnt_RS]

When, in advance, do we register for the tour? Can we register now, or do we have to wait until the event?

[stratman2SSRS]

We will be there!!

[Burnt_RS]

Do we need to be OCC members (I.e. Buy the membership)?

To be clear: We have been working with the Ontario Camaro Club on holding an International Camaro/Firebird event at a Camaro plant since the days when they were built at Ste. Therese. Unfortunately that wasn't to be. Since then, we've been discussing the event with Oshawa - and the time is now right to open the doors to you, our enthusiasts.

Our initial announcement was ONLY to allow you to block the date and to start the process of passport acquisition. Unfortunately a lot of confusion started when plans were made that weren't known to the OCC or Chevrolet.

To be clear -

From our announcement earlier this week:

".....The Plant Tour will occur on Friday, June 10, 2011 and will be open to owners (past and present) of Camaros and Firebirds. Tour spots will be filled on a first come, first served basis upon registration. To support the OCC in their fundraising efforts, those who secure a spot on the tour will be asked to contribute $10 (CDN) which will be donated to the Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus Association of Ontario. Your $10 dollar contribution secures a spot for you and up to three guests (over the age of 12) on the tour.

For those bringing their Camaro or Firebird, registration with the OCC Nationals is required to secure parking in the official event area. We want to set some Guinness World Records, so please bring your cars, if you can – the more, the better! The cost to register your car is $35 (CDN) and no additional contribution is required if you secure a spot on the tour...."

So I would ask that we all suspend interpretations and allow the OCC to get their registration site up (they are enhancing their site to make it easier to register)

We expect many clubs and organizations to attend this event - however, you can imagine the chaos if each group made its own plans for inclusion within the event - thus, it is crucial that we have ONE organizing club -- The Ontario Camaro Club (just as we had Central Indiana Camaro Club as our host and organizing club at Indianapolis in 2000, 2002, and 2009.) in order to curb confusion.

Thank you for your understanding.

Thanks Rick. I guess I'm getting a little too excited. Also, thanks all of you that keep updating the forums with information!

How late will the tent be open Thursday? It appears we have a contingent from OH as well as some SE States coming through Buffalo Thursday afternoon but we hadn't planned on getting into the Oshawa area (to the hotel) until 7 or so.

We are working with the OCC to assist however we can in making the process as simple and smooth as possible. This may include a few group trips on Thursday from the BBOMG host hotel over to the OCC registration tent to get wristbands etc. taken care of. This way to avoid 3000 people from hitting them all at once . Just an idea at this stage - details to be worked out later.

Stay tuned to this thread and the OCC website for all the registration details. Stay tuned to the BBOMG thread (http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=116335) for details about BBOMG.
