Tom and Rory the web site has been updated with new info but is missing preregistration forms. At the meeting we talked about getting permission to use the fall fair grounds for a group camp site. The biulding that the saturday night dance is being held at is part of the fair grounds. Camping and hotels are limited so let me know your plans and maybe I could help out.------------------

RogerNot 100% sure of my plans yet, but i was maybe going to my dads cabin off Bamfield for a few days before...i'd be leaving my car/truck(or whatever) somewhere in Pt Alberni and taking the Lady Rose over there. Then come back Friday and stay in Pt Alberni, probably in a motel. All depends on who's all wanting to go with me.

PS (to Non-Albernians) : Lady Rose is not some aristocrat or whore... it's a very old boat, and great trip

Tom, I'm sure we can find some place to put your truck and being a local that spent a lot of time growing up down the inlet we called her the Lady Bucket. I do like going for a ride on her, very relaxing. Roger------------------
