Tuesday, 7	Hagerty Broker Event	11:00 am
Hagerty is hosting a small event on Tues Aug 7th at the Canadian Automotive Museum in Oshawa for a small group of insurance brokers.  This event is designed to give those brokers some additional information about Hagerty products as well as a chance to spend some face-to-face time with the owners of collector vehicles.  The goal is to make the vehicles less intimidating and to give brokers a chance to understand the passion owners have.  Several members of the Hagerty team will be flying out for this event as well.   Andrew is looking for approximately 15 collector vehicles (not all Triumphs) and their owners to participate.  The event will begin at 9 a.m. with an information session for broker partners.  At 11 a.m. Andrew will introduce owners and vehicles followed by a short drive (about 20-30 minutes) giving the brokers the experience to be driven around in classic vehicles (driven by the owner, of course).  After that Hagerty will host a lunch and repeat the same schedule in the afternoon.  Volunteers should be available from 11am-2:30pm.  If any club members are available and willing to participate it would be greatly appreciated; please let Dave know at dave.sims@cogeco.ca
Sunday, 19	Brits-on-the-Lake, Port Perry, Ontario	9:00 am
The tenth annual Festival will start things off on Saturday with a motoring tour of the idyllic Lake Scugog countryside, motoring through hamlets and villages followed by a noggin in Port Perry. Sunday, all of the cars and entrants will be out in their finest on Queen Street in historic Downtown Port Perry for the all-British Car show with Peoples' Choice Judging in 26 different Classes.    No prior booking is required and displaying your vehicle really couldn't be easier. You can simply show up and REGISTER at the gate then find a place to park in the show area.  Just $25 for cars and $20 for motorcycles.   However, pre-registration for a discounted fee is available starting at $18 for cars and $15 for motorcycles.  Pre-registering your car or motorcycle saves you money and it significantly reduces the amount of administrative work that we must do on the day of the show, which is quite considerable.  And since pre-registering assists us to prepare in advance, when you do arrive at the event, you'll be whisked right into the show with no wait at all.  So, please consider pre-registering (see below link)..
