Toronto, Hamilton, Niagara ++ Charity Poker Run Cruise, Register Now!!
*** UPDATE - AS OF JULY 14, ONLY 3 SPOTS REMAINING ***
Ok guys (and Gals) the Poker Run is on with proceeds to the Optimist Club. The date is Saturday July 19th and will run from 9:00 am (drivers meeting) with the last stop and prizes being awarded at 2:00 pm. You will be welcome to stay longer at the final stop. We have the entire patio reserved at the new East Side Mario's in Waterdown!! And we have been offered 50% off ALL appetizers!
We will be starting from the Dairy Queen in Waterdown. They have agreed to open early to provide us with coffee and donuts, and to use the store for registrations and of course, the bathrooms will be available. This will also be our third stop (around 11:00) and we have been offered some "sundae specials" details later.
The cost is $ 20.00 per person, (driver and navigator) this includes a $10.00 donation to the Charity and your $10.00 wager on your poker hand.
All generations of Vettes are welcome!
Routes and card/rest stops will be revealed the day of the event. Make sure to wear a smile, we are getting coverage from 2 local papers.
Parking has been the only challenge. The run will be limited to the first 25 cars, hopefully you all bring "paying" passengers and we end up with 50 paid hands.
Should the weather not be cooperative, a "rain date" has been scheduled for the next day, Sunday July 20th.
I'm heading off to Bowling Green now ....... and I'd like to be able to finalize our arrangements with the sponsors when I return, so please .... if you are planning on attending, SIGN UP HERE NOW. Thanks.
Even if you have indicated your attendance in earlier posts, please sign up here, as this is the only post used for registration.
The roads you will cruise on are second to none in Ontario! Not sure? Simply ask mg62, Ghostrider, 1bad69 ......
Thanks everyone, I look forward to seeing you all on the 19th,
Michael
Questions, directions? Post 'em here and I'll respond upon my return.
And guys ...... try to keep this TTT while I'm gone ..OK?

Count me in with my co-pilot Elizabeth. Unless of course, I get stuck with the Vette in Bowling Green, Kentucky or in Nashville, Tennessee.

Yikes ... 10 already. Listen guys, if the list goes past 25, don't worry. Although I can't 100% gaurantee a spot .. it is for charity so the sponsors might give us more room. I'll make some calls when I get back.
Gone to BG guys ... see ya. :seeya (i'll bring back lots o' pics)

If Flav is coming then I guess I HAVE to..... Who know when we might see him again... :D
Guys, I am changing the cam and intake, and re-curving the dist. Canada Day weekend. If all goes well and the car is all buttoned up, then I will be there for sure.
However, if the car's not running then.... :confused:
