So, what time are the "west enders" meeting up for this? First time I can call myself a west ender :lol:
Hey Nick, do you have a place and time? Need to know so I can make arrangements with the "Nanny" :mrgreen: We will be taking the van to and dropping the kids off in Port Hope for the day. Then wait on the side of the hwy for everyone else to come by.

yup, place & time for picnic just updated in 1st post.

The gta 'west enders' need to decide on a caravan meet up spot & time.
Let's start a separate thread on that one here to keep this one picnic & event related. :)

Sorry folks....

after spending a considerable amount of time calling around to see if any reasonable hotels/motels would provide some group rates for us & a block of rooms
(for either fri or sat nights, or both,) I unfortunately must leave accommodation bookings to whoever individuals want to stay overnight in the vicinity.

That weekend is during high season on a holiday weekend, in a highly picturesque area, so effectively, they don't need too. Boo. :evil:
So a heads up: Book now if you are considering to stay overnight!
The better half wants to stay & tour the Gananoque/Kingston area on the Sunday, so it looks like we'll be staying overnight Saturday.

Can use this if u like: http://ca.hotels.com/search.do?resolved ... rder=PRICE

Let me know if you do decide to stay as well and perhaps we can partake in some 'extra-curricular' activities, ahem.
Will let you know where we'll be staying if anyone wants to stay there too...

After the cruise portion of the day for those who decide to stick around, an optional but yummy late dinner (8pm reservations under name FIERO) on Saturday night will be at:

Lone Star Texas Grill
251 Ontario St
Kingston, ON
K7L 2Z4

https://www.google.ca/maps/place/Lone+S ... !1e1?hl=en

This is in the very picturesque & happenin' part of downtown waterfront Kingston, right near Confederation Park & Kingston City Hall...a great area to stroll in for digestion (or ice cream), people watch (or Kingston Brewing Company visits).

Join us if you can!

Tanya & myself will be staying the night in Kingston. We booked a room at the Kingston East Motel. There are not many places left to stay the night in Kingston, everybody has 1-2 rooms left or fully booked up. Don't know if we're going to do anything on Sunday yet. May just stay in bed as late as possible and eventually head back to Toronto with a quick stop in Port Hope to pick up the girls.

To bring:
picnic gear, shelters, chairs, umbrellas, sunscreen, GPS, FRS radios if u got 'em for comms (whatever fits!), CAA, emergency parts & tool box (hey we're Fieros :roll: ), CAA, some $, car shining stuff etc


I'm going to buy an FRS radio. I've done some googling, and it looks like all FRS radios are compatible, regardless of brand. Any recommendations? Handsfree?

ok, we just rebooked to the Colonial Resort & Spa in Gananoque on hotel.com; they have a sale on for $94 per night, (and includes breakfast!)....hurry!

& we now have the center section parking lot & grass area at the park :)
(thank you to for that goes to Joanne Garry Steacy from Mallorytown!)


Also, the cruise at the end of the day is approx., an hour long from Brown's Bay Park to Kingston. It is along the very scenic 1000 Islands Parkway.
We can do it as a group after we depart the park or on your own.
I think it'd be much more fun as a group and for some cool photo ops. 8-)

...to clarify some folks inquiries; there is a per vehicle entrance fee to the park on the weekends at Brown's Bay, not per person. :(
(Their website is misleading & needs correcting!) Give em heck too at the gate as their website says 'maximum' vehicle charge. :roll:
The fee is approx. $16 cdn per vehicle no matter how many people in or on it.
(Still ok for us I think, about $8 pp for 2-seaters :roll: )

However, on the more positive side, we are able to go in & out with our day permits, 8-)
so that allows people to come as go if anyone needs to get gas, food, medical attention :shock: , check into accommodations, etc.

Hope this helps!

p.s. don't forget your supersoakers ! :o :shock:
