Hey everyone!
Well it's about that time again. The leaves are turning colour, the temperature is dropping and the ladies are back to wearing pants... So it's time to put a few more KM's on the summer tires before the winters go on or the car goes in for storage.
This event is open to everyone and every make or model. It will start @10am, located in Brampton like the last one in the above ground parking lot at Bramalea City Center. I mapped out a fairly easy route but this does have some twists and is not for the pavement queens. We are hitting some dirt roads.  Well I hope you can all make it.
*** NEW***
So we have decided to add in a BBQ at the end of the event. We will be going to Belfountain Conservation Park. Entrance to the park is $4.75 per Adult and $2.75 per child (6-12). I am going to book us a Propane BBQ for use. Everyone is expected to bring they're own food please. I will bring some Tasty Burgers and Cheese but I won't bring toppings. Also please bring your camping chairs too.
After we eat we can explorer the park, take some pics and walk the path around the lake. It should be fun. So bring some running shoes. Just hope it doesn't rain lol.
Make sure you bring your 2-Way Radios too!!!

I'm in.
I really like the BBQ part.
Should we:
a/ let a volunteer handle it all with a cost to participants?
or
b/ everyone bring something?
John, could you include an address or postal or Long and Lat for GPS'ers?

My vote would be for everyone to bring their own ... thinking selfishly for the moment that would be easier for me to deal with the kids etc and I think it would also be easier on the organizers too.
edit: not sure if this is germane or not, but the Caledon Ski Club has their annual meeting and equipment sale that day.
edit 2: both Terra Cotta Conservation Area and Belfountain Conservation Area are open and take picnic reservations - they feature decent parking, good washrooms and other amenities; downside is it costs to get in.

The BBQ idea sounds good. but I am swapped with gettign a new job and dealing with a bunch of personal BS right now.
Ken and DP could one of you two take care of this for me.
Ken: i know every park cost to get in. So I guess pick one, find the price and explaine how much to everyone. And yes ppl should bring they own food. Because everyone is picky in they're own way lol

I'll look into the park and make a recommendation ... off the top of my head I think the Belfountain Conservation Area looks good - and it's right in town where there's a couple of ice cream and coffee shops etc ... it's not a huge park but it's October so it shouldn't be too busy.

Sounds like a plan ... I can also bring a butane camp stove (for coffee etc) and a small charcoal bbq
