Used up some more of my "15 minutes of fame"....
I sent an e-mail to the local papers asking them to put Westiva in their upcoming events. Greg Williams who writes for the Calgary Herald contacted me to get some more information. We arranged to do an interview and here's the result.
I guess this means we have to come to FM5 now.

July 1 update...
15 days to go and there are still some campsites left at Mount Kidd. None left at Bow Valley though. There are a number of other campgrounds in the area that don't take reservations.
I'll hopefully have some time to get a bit of work on the car done before the 16th.Ian

Less than two weeks to go!!!
I've got some goodies from Rock Auto to give away at the meet. Trying a couple of other sources for other giveaways.
Going to set up a "fan favorite" vote like I did last year. There will be a long distance award too.
Getting excited... nowhere near enough time to get things done on the car that I want.Ian
