Offical 2014 CanAm Tour

Looking for fun?? Join us on the 2014 CanAm Tour. I believe this is the 12th year for the CanAm. We have great fun with a number of our good friend from Washington coming north to join us Canadians.

Tradition has it, the route can not be shared until the day of the event.

We are going to bump up the date to the May 30, 31 and June 1 weekend.

We will meet up at the Starbucks located at 1399 Sumas Way, Abbotsford, BC. This is north of the Sumas Border Crossing for our American friends. Let's try to be there at 6:30 AM to meet everyone. Driver's meeting will be at 7:00 with a departure at 7:05 AM. We will break the group into smaller run groups.

Some of you may want to join the group at the Friday lunch stop. This will be in Vernon on the northeast corner of Hwy 6 and Hwy 97. We should be there around 12:30 and 1:00 PM. Please confirm if you will meet here.

Hotel information for Friday and Saturday nights:
Prestige Lakeside
701 Lakeside Drive, Nelson
1-250-352-7222
A block of 30 rooms available until May 14 under "CanAm Tour". Bookings by individual call in. Cancellation is 48 hours prior.
Single queen $140, double queen $155 and king $150 per night. Water view + $20

If I could ask people to confirm once you have booked or if you will be dropping out. Reasons why......I would like to offer openings to the good folks on the waitlist. And, would like to get a head count for the dinner reservations for Friday and Saturday evenings. Thanks.

Because of the size of the group, we have decided to keep the tour inside Canada to avoid border delays. NOTE - bring bug spray.

Participants (as of May 21):

Guy, New West, 993 cab
Kevin, Calgary, Carrera
Mark and Karen, Revelstoke, ??? - Vernon
Paul Y, Vancouver, Cayman

I got emails from J and Paul A. They are in.

I should add that I am in too. After 6 months of recovery, my back seems to be coming around so I can drive again. Yahoo!!

Let's do this.

Damn! We'll be in Las Vegas for a wedding the same weekend.
Too bad because It would have been fun to tour in the 3.2 Carrera for a change.
Have fun!
