Folks, as we know many are making their summer travel/holiday plans we are happy to announce that we have established a link with the hotel so bookings can now be made.

Also, for those travelling from afar and who may have never been in this part of Canada before we have negotiated the event room rate a few days prior/post the event for an extended stay.

We shall also be adding a registration site in the near future as we gather momentum for this historic gathering.

A while back I started a Face Book (928 Owners club) group. we have over 100 members already and I have started to campaign for the Sharks on Ice event
You are welcome to join and beat your drum.
here is the link
www.facebook.com/groups/506982062662314/...4177635¬if_t=like

Please tell and encourage every 928 owner you know to come.
We can get full support from the club but we need a minimum of 100 owners.
It is the first Canadian Event and it needs to be a big hit so that more will follow.
