Tentative Schedule:
Friday June 15 Anyone is welcome to arrive anytime on Friday.  We have lots of room for free camping so you can set up early.  Friday evening we will go to Orillia to the 'Cruise Night' at the Home Depot.  This is about a twenty minute drive.

Saturday June 16 Social gathering and static car display on Saturday morning.  John Poole will conduct a Tech. session on painting for about an hour.  A B.B.Q. lunch is available for a nominal cost and proceeds go to support renovations at our local community hall.  Around 1:00.pm. we will leave for Wasaga Beach (the longest freshwater beach in the world!)
Most of this route is flat and paved but  there are a couple of not too steep hills. It takes us through farmland and a couple of small villages where gas is available. It is about 40 miles to Wasaga Beach so it will take us about an hour to an hour and a half.  We have complimentary parking passes along the beach.  There are lots of places to eat in Wasaga Beach, which we can do before leaving at about 6:30.pm. to return to our house.  We will return to our place for a social evening and carry out any necessary repairs.

Sunday June 17 We will meet at our house at about 9:00.am. and leave for Orillia at 9:30.am. for breakfast at a 50's diner.  We will take a scenic route which will take about 30 minutes.  We will then go to Couchiching Park in downtown Orillia for about an hour and then return home to load the cars etc.  Everyone should be able to be on the road by about 1:00.pm.  There is a nice boat trip on Lake Couchiching aboard the Island Princess www.obcruise.com for anyone that needs a break from microcars.

For any of you that are trying to find our house using your GPS:
make sure you enter Oro-Medonte as the City and not Coldwater.
I know many GPS users have trouble finding our location as Coldwater is only a mailing address, not our house address.

Microcar / Minicar:
Typically a small vehicle with less than 850 cc engine displacement or
fewer than 4 cylinders or fewer than 4 road wheels
