hey SOCO members....is anybody up for a car show on the shores of lake huron in the late summer? there is is a car show in grand bend, called" the Field of Dreams Car" show ,on saturday september 8th. it is the third annual....and it is a "show what you drove " car show.we could go early in the morning saturday....or spend the friday night on the road....and be in grand bend first thing in the morning. the show open at 9:00 am , and is five dollars to enter. i have never been ....but if the weather is great....it could be a nice outing. google it to find out more details.
of course our eastern ont. and american friends are more than welcome to join us.

let me know how you feel about this event....and we can make some plans.

this may be a great event for those who can't attend the woodward dream cruise.

cheers,
gryfan

 

Beautiful beaches in Grand Bend.
Nick, I would be interested in this outing but only if you have retired your Speedo?

 

sounds good..... by the way the " speedo" is at the dry cleaners. it is a" big" job to clean ......so it may be there for a while.

it appears that most people who will be attending, think that a room on the road friday, may be the way to go. if anybody has any idea of a place to stay....let us know. this event is a fund-raiser for the "make a wish foundation"

Hal

 

Hi Hal, seems like you are having fun, I hope the rain stays away tomorrow.

 

Sent you and Nick a PM Hal..........

 

just a quick thanks to those who braved the early morning rain ....and enjoyed a sunny day in grand bend. it was a great show with a combination of crossfires , reattas, and a cutlass convertible thrown in attending under the SOCO banner. we had a great time ...with a laugh a minute. hal won the prize for traveling the farthest distance to the show. we added a couple to our group under the reatta class. the batmobile also made a cameo appearance.

hal thanks for all of your help....and next time bring gwen.this is a show we should try to attend next year. hope all had a safe drive home.

Yes Nick a great weekend, The weather only got the road dust off the cars. The laughter and Idle banter made up fot the morning start. Question: how many pieses of fish for diner and the humble breakfest will never be forgotten. The venue left nothing to desire. Just need more of those unpractical vehicles for next year.
And so does the Childerens Wish foundation.

Till next time!!!
