Chateau Montebello Sept 29th 2013

Post by Fiatnut »

Event is 5 weeks away so I would need all of you to do all you can to get the invites out, get the buzz going so we can maximize the attendance and hopefully have a wonderful event in Montebello.

I was able to negotiate a rate of 50$ (tax and service included) for the Brunch at Montebello but no discount on the rooms. For those who want to stay overnight but prefer a less expensive option, here are other hotels nearby:

It would also be great if someone could go over there to look things over and see if the access is ok for our cars (especially the lower ones) and also see how many cars will fit. Max Del Pinto and myself will be going soon, I will email all of you to let you know when and if you'd like to join us.

Jerry Cucchiara from the Toronto Fiat Club will also be joining us and bringing members from his group so he's now been added to our email circle....welcome Jerry. Also on cc is Richard Buteau (the contact person at the Montebello) and Alain Levesque (the famous Canadian Automotive painter who will be having an exhibit that same weekend and helping us with our event)

The objective is to get at least 100 cars (I don't see a problem with that if each group averages a minimum of 12 cars)

I will also need you guys to call the Chateau a few days before and let them know how many from your group you will be so they can prepare the brunch area for us.

Please let me know if everyone has any suggestions or ideas and please "join" our event on our Facebook page here:

Lastly, each city should have a departure meeting point in the morning so we can have a common departure (even if we don't caravan once we hit the road)
Get in contact with your chapter to find out when and where your leaving from.

Wow. This would be great to attend. Just have to get my car back together before then. Great motivation though!

A video of Raduno Montebello has been posted on YouTube.
I thought I would share with my friends on FS.

It was a great day with great Italian cars and of course, like here, great people. :D

Looking forward to next year.
