| Tuesday, 12 | Club Meeting at Howard Iron Works Restoration Facility and Printing Museum in Oakville | 7:00 pm |
Barry O'Rourke knows the owner of the Print Museum in Oakville, Nick Howard, who has kindly offered to hold an event for us. Nick will give us a tour of his facility, from the restoration area to the showroom with many beautiful presses and related printing equipment. Much like restoring our Triumph’s these machines are totally stripped down and then rebuilt, with some parts have to be recreated from scratch as there are no spare parts available. From wooden type, printing stones and offset plates you will see examples of the past from the 1800s on, including a demonstration of a running press
The Howard Iron Works Restoration Facility and Printing Museum is located at 800 Westgate Raod, Oakville, L6L 5N2 (On the other side of the road from Porsche Centre Oakville). Tel. (905) 821-0000.
The usual pizza and soft drinks will be provided by the club. Look forward to seeing a good turnout.

| Sunday, 18 | Brits on the Lake - Port Perry | 9:00 am |
This was taken directly from the Brits on the Lake website ...
2019 marks the start of our second decade presenting BRITS ON THE LAKE Classic Motoring Revival. The last ten years have been remarkable and we have made many new friends and we have seen them return year after year in their hundreds to enjoy this unique event and of course our host community of Port Perry.
The event has matured over the last decade and it is time to shake things up, to expand our horizons and to welcome new friends into our special time here.
With that desire for something new, we are pleased to open our doors in 2019 to include European, Import and Kit Cars along with motorcycles from other nations as well. We are confident that this will enhance the spirit of the show by making it even more exotic and filled with variety adding even more beauty of design and engineering to our loyal British attendees. |
