Amongst other things and aside from the great comraderie (as always), you will see the only running Windsor Carrier in North America as well as[/SIZE] have a chance to be a running target for the 6 pdr!! Think of what we could tell your children & grandchildren in your absence!!
Seriously folks, this has become a great summer tradition in the Greater Ottawa Area and it's worth the effort getting there! We hope to see you...

We have amended the activity list somewhat. We plan to shoe-horn these events into the already advertised schedule:

Saturday:

- Barn and wagon lines tour;
- Test run of Bob's rolling frame;
- Dodge engine pull ('55 ambulance);
- Cross country run to the S&P Museum for those who want to see what keeps Mike (AKA Gunner) busy - transport will depend on who wants to go and what is available. WARNING - you may be recruited to drive one of his vehicles to BBB333 and return (CCKW/deuce and a half/etc...);
- C15 strip down (third year running and still not stripped); and/or
- sitting on one's can quaffing ale (s).

Note on S&P Convoy 2008: Two factors will limit Mike's convoy this year - a lack of drivers and the cost of fuel. So, here is a chance for a lucky chap with driving experience to pilot one of Mike's treasures. A local consulting company has anted up to cover some of Mike's fuel costs, so we will see at least one truck/gun combo at BBB333.
