Good times! Great meet, and the weather definitely worked out!

I can't say the same about traffic on the way there!

Man I wish I could have made it. I was out in Muskoka and it was raining like hell and I thought the weather would have been crap down at the bbq also, too bad.

Not only was it supposed to rain, but thunderstorm... all afternoon. We got nothing but sun. I guess the motoring gods were looking out for us.

[Ghost]

well we got pretty much what you described here in Burlington for most of the day ... Rain and thunderstorms ... but after looking at everyones pic's that have been posted up it sure looks like the motoring gods were with you there

Sorry, I've been so busy since the BBQ I haven't found the time to post an appropriate thank you to all those who helped make the 7th Annual BBQ a success. This will have to suffice.

I just wanted to thank our Sponsors: Cattman Performance and Simone Performance for the terrific gifts and contribution. Please take a second to visit them.

The 3 grill men: Napoleon, Nozar and Renny for slaving over the “hot” grill and feeding everyone. How’s your arm Nozar?!

Big thanks to the man on the mic: Mark Chapel for well... everything! Those of you who don't know, Mark arrived early to setup, supplied us the PA and is the voice of the TMEC gods. He’s full of wisdom you can only acquire at his ripe age Your hard work is much appreciated. He was privately awarded the TMEC M.V.M. Award.

I had two awards and I wanted to present it during the award ceremony but there was a mess up as I had two exact awards and only one got printed because they prob thought it was a dupe.

The other award still owed is the TMEC M.V.M. Award presented to: Hadley Kay who as many of you know is also our moderator and the man responsible for keeping the forum together during our rough patch earlier this year.

Both Mark and Hadley’s contribution to the club has been above and beyond the call of duty. I hope you like the M.V.M. "Most Valuable Member" Award and accept that as a small token of my appreciation.

Thanks to my wife and son for all the dirty work while I kicked back and had several beers. You’ll never read this but rest assured, I owe her a nice dinner and Vince a new toy

Finally, Thanks to everyone for coming out and supporting the community. The weather was in our favour and it turned out to be a beautiful day. I had a great time and it was nice to see the new attendees come up to me and express their appreciation for the event. I know I can count your RSVP for next year.

See you all then (if not earlier )!
