ON BCM 2014 Survey

Hello fellow rotorheads,

The Grey Bruce Rotorheads and I have been discussing the 2014 Bruce County Meet. For those who have attended you will know we have had very successful and enjoyable meetings over the past years. For those planning to attended, don't worry! We hope to continue to host events such as this and make them even more enjoyable!

This of course leads us to the question, "How can we improve this event?" Well that's where you guys come in. We need to know for those who have attended, and for those who are planning to attend, are you interested in spending a night camping in tents?

While some people love spending the night in a tent or under the stars, others may think spending the night with mosquitoes while sleeping on the dirt is less desirable.

In the next few weeks the GBR and I will begin making plans for this years BCM. You could help us out in the planning of this event by simply replying to this thread or sending me a PM stating your opinion on tent or not.

Thanks for your help with this and I hope to see you at this years BCM!
-Bones-

I believe the past few BCM events have been fortunate to have excellent weather for driving. Any of those days would have been good for camping, too.
I would be anxious to explore Manitoulin with my RX7. Camping is fine, provided the weather cooperated. But that cannot be controlled or guaranteed. A rainy weekend would not be enjoyable.
Regardless, count me in at this years event, where ever you choose.

Thanks for everyone's input so far, and keep it coming! Dates have yet to be determined; however, we are aiming to push it back a bit later than it has been the last few years. Please bare with us and we will have proper details for you all within the next two weeks.
Thanks,
-Bones-

Mr.Cool, so this is the event that you were telling me about when you spotted me in my FD while you were on your Kawi? Sorry, but not a tent/camp kind of guy.

I8aMR2, yes this is it. It is an over night meet but not necessarily a tent/camp meet, that's just an option as we have had others sleep in tents in the past others chose to sleep indoors, or if your rick in the back of your rx8. Also some people only show up for one day of the cruise so its all optional. In any case I highly recommend coming to this meet if you can. Its a great first experience and way to meet other members.

I think camping would be a great idea as long as the weather is decent. Not a whole lot of fun trying to pack up a tent in the rain really.

Well as long as it's 5 star camping, room service with kraken pancakes. Enough tequila I'll sleep anywhere e.g. top of a pool table, beside the dog cage with the dog.

Point to self make sure dog has some tequila, so he does not wake me up with 2 hours sleep.

I'll talk to Buggy and the BCM crew and maybe next year we can combine the two events (same weekend).

Thanks to everyone who attended my hopefully annual event.
cheers
