The Gateway to Niagara is located on the opposite side of the lake. Take the QEW Niagara to Casablanca. Turn towards the escarpment (right if your coming from Toronto/Hamilton) and we meet behind the Tim Horton's in the parking lot.
I would like to get a list of attendees. I realize we can get slowed down in the morning and traffic might be a headache, so please sign up if your coming, as we will give you some extra time to find us if needed.
The following have signed up so far.........
1. meford4u and son
2. Darkpuppet
3. KING OF KANCE KANCELLS AGAIN! :(
4. NefCanuck
5. NikiterZTS
6. ZX5focused
7. habmann
8. ZX3guy2000
9. eSVeetv
10. euroZX5
11. torradan
12. sweetg
13. Focus man, focus

Add your name to the list if you are attending. Take it off if you cannot attend.
We will be leaving from Grimsby and making our way to Niagara Falls to the park across from Whirlpool where we gathered last year. Will we do the same cruise? No. But that is being discussed.
You need to bring or arrange the following...........
1. A camera.........we prefer digital, but we can team you up with someone with a digital camera if necessary.
2. Food. Whether you bring your own and BBQ it there or there are fast food places within a 5 minute drive. We are probably going to eat after the event, but that is flexible and will be determined by the hunger level at the time.
3. A little money. Probably less than $10, but you will have to buy items during the hunt. Most of the items and information are free.
4. If you have a portable walkie talkie or whatever they are called, bring it.
5. You will need a map of the Niagara region. I/we will not be supplying them as this is a scavenger hunt and you actually will have to do some work this year. And for those men that hate to stop and ask for directions? Your in trouble.
6. A pen/pencil
Here is the outline of events for the Scavenger Hunt, without giving too much away.
Once we gather and the information is given out, you will be sent out on your way to find the locations and items within the Niagara Region. You will be required to take no less than Three(3) pictures that will be used throughout the site. The Grand Prize winner for Best Photo will have their picture predominently displayed as Page One. That's Right, no more looking at the best car on the site. :P But those who do not attend the event will be participating right along with you......
NefCanuck (Daniel) and I will be out on the course with you. We will be moving from location to location, so you have to find us. If you do find us, then bonus points are awarded for getting one of us in a picture.
You will have a time limit of 2 hours. So get what you can, plan wisely, and have fun. If your late coming back, then for every 5 minutes you lose 25 points. Don't be late. We will meet up again at the starting point.
You will not be given a map, nor, in most cases will you be given addresses. All of the locations are historic/ famous landmarks located along the Niagara Parkway(this is a huge hint people).
See this thread for the out-of-towners who would like to participate in the photo contest but cannot attend the Niagara Cruise.
