Title: Alberta All British Motoring Society June 18th, 2016 Edmonton
Post by: B-Red on April 25, 2016, 03:00 PM
Good day everybody,

The Alberta All British Field meet will be held on June 18th at 11 am to 5 pm on Saturday at Victoria Park.  The event will host over 200 registered vehicles and up to 2000 members of the public will be in attendance. The event is a public event with free admission to the public.

Information about the event can be found at http://www.albertaallbritishmotoringsociety.ca. Please check the site to fill in the registration form to participate.  The plan is to make this event an annual event and strong participation will help us big time. The ALRE have participated before in the bi annual event. We used to get between 8 to 20 vehicles in the event.

Early registration will help organizers get the t-shirts in on time. 


I need to know who is interested in participating. I would appreciate this information back by May 3rd. so I can advise the organizing committee. There are food vendors in this event. We may have breakfast on site for the startup.

I will also be looking for a volunteer / volunteers to prepare our traditional Pulled Meat Sandwiches for lunch. Craig did this two years ago. Ian did it last year. We need new recruits. Pork and Beef are usually made with buns and pop

We will be located on the west side of the Oval in Victoria park. So, be prepared for some sun and some shade.

Please respond back to me directly so we do not jam the mail server.

thank you

cheers,

Emad El-Zein

I'm off to Ruby Lake that weekend, so I won't be able to make this one.

I'll be taking the CT Bill.

We may end up calling the trip though if it looks like it's going to rain all weekend (which is what the forcast is calling for now at least). There's no point being up at Ruby in the rain, the lake will be blown out and the fish won't be feeding.
