I'm reposting my comments from the poll posting in here because it's relivent to this discution too....... plus it's realistic.
I will admit BC is beautiful to drive thru I should know, my dad & I brought back a classic Mustang From Kelowna to Toronto.
Personally I think it would be better the shedule something by region, mainly because of the long drives some people would be undertaking to cross the country just to meet up for a day ? I mean com'on, yeah it would be cool to meet people from all over not to mention the Foci, but realisticly it more or less would have to be by region. I'm sure you will all agree with me here in saying anyone would be welcomed to attened from anywhere in the country where ever the events might be taking place so long as they can make it out & afford the cost to under take that.
My suggestion would be to try to have it so that All meetings take place by regions at different times durring the summer Months in a huge park somewhere for a BBQ event that would inclued other things & last for a day or two, like a camp out event. I'd say start in the Western Canada, in Calgary AB or Regina SK in June. Then the central Canada meeting in July In or around Toronto ON since it's equal driving time anywhere in Ontario to get there, & then having the last meet taking place in August in Eastern Canada In either Fredricton NB, Charlettetown PEI, or Halifax NS. Agian having it so that anyone from anywhere in the this country or the from the U.S. would be welcomed to attend to the big meetings.
I have to admit the chapters idea is a good one but really, we are all part of the same board, & we all participate in here so really if we went by chapters it would kinda alienates us by region, when we are all equal in here, talking to each other without the whole distance factor being there. that's my 2 cents.

I was the only member on this board with a Yellow Focus Sedan, and a 2002+ Euro Facelift on a sedan.
