Date is still being decided. It'll either be May 6th or 7th (This Sat or Sun), we're waiting to get a better look at the weather before we nail it down.
edit - I am sent an e-mail to Chris from eShine about attending. I believe he is in Port Colborne, so it'd be ~1-1.5 hour drive for him. I will let you know what his response is. I know that I personally would probably buy ~$50-$100 in products, so lets keep our fingers crossed.

Luckily his prices online are still good, so perhaps if we all decide we need a bunch of stuff we can organize a group buy and maybe get a couple % off.

Updates (ill update the main post too).
1) 90% chance of rain on Sat now, 0% Sunday. I trust the weatherman as far as I can Kaber toss him, but I think it's time to finally drop the hammer and say SUNDAY MAY 7TH IS THE DAY.
10 AM SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY: Bring your Miller High Life as G35-Zilla will take on PC-KONG in a cage-match to the death!!!
Ok, now that that's out of my system....
2) As you can see, I will be there as close to 10am as possible. Please show up when time suits you. You don't have to be there at 10am or stay all day, I'd just like everyone to be able to meet and have a drink and wreck..er, clean some cars. Remember, Colin and the motorcade will be there around 1pm.
3) Top secret, hush hush, I think I may be able to get us some wholesale pricing on goodies. I will bring a price list this weekend and everyone can take a look at it and make their calls. Only issue is the sutff would have to be shipped to me, then delivered or shipped to you. Upside is it'll be about half the price we normally pay. I'm not going to be making anything off this and there is no pressue to buy or anything. I have no interest in becoming a distributor (even though some folks seem to think I should ). My wife would beat me up. If you guys want to know before hand what the selection will look like pm me, I don't want to put the site name here yet.
4) Bring whatever you like. PCs, buckets, mitts, microfibers, soap, clay, polishes and waxes, it's all good to have. We'll clean as many cars as we can. I'll be detailing two cars from the wheels on up and will definitely help with others as I can. If you're missing polish or wax or sealant or something, don't sweat it - my mom taught me how to share!
I think thats it. Have a nice night fellas, I'm off to clean some more cars!

LOLz, I'll put 50 on G-Zilla.....he's one mean dude...., but if he gets 'tapped', I get dibs on his ride.
Great Picus.....Sunday morning at 10 for G-Zilla and some more, and I'll bring up the rear with Sam about 12:30-1pm...
......and wholesale prices is one fine deal.........
Barring any change in the weather, We'll see you there guys and gals.

Sounds great. I've cleared Sunday with my B-I-Law and it a go. I'll be there before 10 just because I'm responsible for the building and my Bro.'s behaviour. I know there will be no issues with this bunch of lunatics .
I'll inquire about allowed Beverages by Thurs.Regular pop's and water should be no problem. As for anything else it'll be my BIL's call and I know we will all respect it.
Looking forward to seeing all the old faces and those new ones as well.

Hi everyone - Sam brought up a good point in a PM:
If possible it would be helpful for people to bring their own hose/splitter. I am sure we'll be ok on that front, but as usual it's better to have and not need than need and not have.
Expanding on that, powerbars and extension cords will also be helpful. I will bring my powerbar and a couple 50ft cords, but if someone wants to bring a couple more I am sure it won't hurt.
Lastly (and this is a long shot), even though the weatherman says it'll only be 11C, it's always good to have as much shade as possible when washing and polishing, so if someone has a car tent or portable shade machine (!!), that would be a great thing to bring.

Hey Wayne,
I didn't say old fart faces . From what I can gather it seems a majority of the recent members are youngish. Or new to this forum. Old in my book art those members who were at the All seasons G meet at Square One. You remember the one ( last year ) where it rained, snowed, hailed and was windy as all get out. Old is at least being at the LCM to drool at those vintage beauties .
I consider the rest of us mature . Should I have used familiar?
