Hello Everyone,

Just thought I would start this thread now to see who is interested in attending another meet in Ontario.

August seemed to be a good time.

Last time we met at Kelsey's by the Airport in Toronto.

Does anyone have another venue in mind? 

Suggestions most welcome!!

Karen


Hi Karen, me and Lewis will be with you in spirit if not in the flesh. Hope every one has a great time and happy hunting while you all there.

I missed the last one and don't want to miss this one. As I am in Niagara, T.O. would be great for me, although, the majority should rule.  Please keep me in the loop!

Hi everyone

Karen, if you ever hold one in Yorkdale, I could make that much more easily than the Airport or other spots. I'm about 2 1/2 hours north and getting to Yorkdale is not too complicated for me.

Hi All,

If memory serves, last year meeting was held at the Kelsey's on T.O. near Steels and can't remember crossroad. This was a nice place... but if another place is better for everyone then lets go for it  ??? I will be coming down from northern northwestern Ontario, so which end of T.O doesn't matter to me  :) Keep me posted too.

Yorkdale is kindof in the middle of Toronto, I think  ::)  and on the subway line, so that might be a good spot and easy access to the 401.

How about a date:  August 17th ok??? That's a Sunday
