OMVA Fall Show 20 Oct 2007
The OMVA Fall Show will be held this year in Ottawa, the Nations Capital. The date is Saturday 20 October and it will be held at the Cartier Drill Hall on Laurier next to the City Hall and NDHQ. 8:00- 13:00 aprox.
This is the first time it has been held out East. Lots of oppertunity to visit the Canadian War Museum, the Dieffenbunker-Canada's Cold War Museum, The National Aviation Musem, the National War Memorial and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, the Peacekeepers Memorial, Parliament Hill and the Book of Remembrance, the National Military Cemetary and more. For those with more time to visit the National Archives are here, as well as the Swords and Ploughshares Museum and then there are sights in Kingston as well. You may want to keep the Kingston attractions for next year just in case the Fall show is held there next year. We are looking for vendors and dsplays. tables are limited at this time. Please contact me at cmpmagazine@hotmail.com for more information. Thanks Eric |
Swords & Ploughshares Museum
It's still there, but don't forget Gunner Mike (the owner) will be in darkest Africa at that time... :eek:

When Mike's Away
If Mike approves, and if there is a demand (more than two people), arrangements can be made to have a S&P Museum tour. Keep in mind that the main building is crammed to the rafters for winter, but there are very nice displays outside.
More to follow. |

I may take the opportunity to slip into the Nation's Capital for this innagural event. I am not sure when, as I am scheduled to blow up some stuff in Oregon that week, but we should get together if you'r up that way. Bob/Rob/Grant and Alex - we should get together! Mary is coming for sure this time. Stewart |

Re: Stewart
I'm not sure right now, Stewart, work schedules and all that. I might be persuaded to spend Saturday afternoon/evening in Gracie's, though, if I were up there... :D

What's the parking situation like, if we bring our MV's?
Ferret's drink like REME, and I want to make sure it's worth the trip from Montreal, as I would drive it there. Dan Sicotte |
Dan, I still have some anti skid IRR paint for you. Hoping to be in Ottawa for the show....
|
I should be close to my ferret, or buying parts and accessories for said vehicle. I'll PM you my cell phone number.

Really goof first Ottawa event....
Thanks Eric.....
Blew my allowance and thoroughly enjoyed myself.... a wonderful occasion to meet all the new faces from Montreal...... hope we can do it again...... Bob C. |
Fall show, thank you
I would like to thank the volunteers, vendors, display and MV people, pipe band and the Legion staff for all coming out and making this event better than i anticipated.
We had five vehicles, the best turn out for any fall show, however i did anticipate more. I am hoping that next year it will be held in Kingtson or another eastern area and maybe back in Ottawa every second year. Thanks again for the support. Eric |
