Goderich, Ontario Car Show

Hi everybody,

I posted this message in Ontario Canada Opels but I believe that it should be of interest wider. So, here we go:
Goderich is known as "The Prettiest Town in Canada" (see the link Town of Goderich - Canada's Prettiest Town ). It is known by its downtown "Square" which is actually large octagonal.
Traditional Show and Shine Car Show will be held next Saturday, August 19 on the Square. Organizers are expecting 100-150 cars http://www.calendarwiz.com/calendars...hspecialevents
It would be great if we could organize some Opels to be there. I promise that you will have fun strolling through this friendly town amenities or even visiting very nice local beech. Rob, you might like to visit small aviation museum showing the WWII history of local airport where the RAF pilots were trained.
I will provide barbecue and cold beverages after the show at my place that is just two blocks away from the Square. Visitors will help pull the engine from my car (just kidding!).

The summer in Ontario is short. Let us utilize it and keep gathering. Toronto is just 2 hours from Goderich and Detroit and Buffalo 2.5 hours.

Please let me know as I would hate to run out of beverages.
P.J.

It was a great day in Goderich today. Some 200 classic cars were exhibited at this traditionally well organized car show. My GT was the only Opel and attracted a lot of attention. The weather was great, hot and sunny but as the show is in the park in the middle of town square, the area was shaded by large trees. Later we took a cruise down the beach. I also went the Sky Harbour to check magnificent vintage B25 bomber that arrived for the coat of new paint. Wish more Opels were here!
