Everyone's been itching to cruise down to Niagara this year so let's do it. Sunday, July 26 is the Cruise-In on the Parkway at Reif Winery organized by the Niagara Corvette Club. A bunch of us did this show last year and had a great time.
I thought I'd alter last year's agenda slightly since the parking lot was almost full when we arrived last year. Feel free to post suggestions on altering times, locations, etc. and I will keep this post updated along with a roll-call. Let me know if you can make it and whether you are bringing someone with you.
AGENDA
8:30 - 9:00 am
- meet at the Tim Hortons at Casablanca Blvd. & the QEW (the big one on the Niagara-bound side with the Wendy's)
9:00 am
- cruise down to the car show(Click here for the flyer)
- route, QEW to Glendale/55 exit, to York Rd, to Niagara Pkwy, and straight up to the winery
10:00 am to 1:00 pm
- hang out at the show
- visit the winery
1:00 onward
- visit falls
- visit wineries
Last year we just broke into groups and did whatever. If anyone is interested in cruising back let me know and I can create a slightly different route for the drive home.

Could you change the schedule slightly where you leave for Reif Winery at 8:45 am. We have a CCO group coming from the GTA and a WBCC coming from the North. The WBCC group will be meeting in Stayner at about 7 am to meet up with us at 8:45 am. The CCO group would need to meet at about 7:45 am.

I think we can accomodate that. How many cars do you expect in those 2 groups? We could always just cruise straight down on the QEW in the morning to save time and cruise the back roads on the way home.

We like the idea of just cruising down the QEW in the morning and having a scenic cruise in the afternoon. Do you think we can all meet at the tim hortons on the casablanca exit.
The cco guys are meeting at Jason's tim horton in mississauga at about 8:00 am and then cruise to the casablanca tim horton to meet you everyone. The wasaga guys will meet in stayner at 7:00 am and then cruise to casablanca exit.
If we do a QEW run, we can push the departure time from casablanca to 9:15 for the guys from the north.

With the bigger group, it will be easier to use the Casablanca Tim's (make sure you tell them it's the one on the Niagara-bound side) as the launch point and we'll travel on the QEW so it's easier to keep everyone together but 9 AM will be the launch time. Any later than that and we risk not having room to park when we get there. Get them to leave earlier or drive faster Daryl!
I'll also ping Wilf to see if there's any chance of holding an area for us in case they get held up.
