Awesome cruise. The route was great both pre and post bbq. The only suggestion I have is the park part seemed to drag on a little too long. For the auction, we should start a list of what was gonna be auctioned in a thread so ppl had an idea of how much money to bring. Other than that, it was great. Next year I wont make such a red carpet entrance(s) haha.

Lol freaking chris...

A suggestion for next year that I can think about right now is to perhaps do the auction a bit earlier (enough people left the park before we did the auction).

I didn't mind the length of the time spent at the park, lots of good, hilarious times.

Oh and next year, more bumblebee sex and tossed salads PLEASE

Appreciate the suggestions so far, everyone, thank you.

We were supposed to have a volleyball challenge between Canada/US, didn't work out with everything else we had to ensure we got organized.

I also got some feedback about the BBQ, if the hotdogs weren't frozen, they would have cooked faster/better, my apologies about that, but appreciate people letting me know.

Thanks again to G, Caroline, Stacey, Sagar, Millz, DJ, Victor and Tam.

As Organizers/Helpers and Donator's, you all made for a very successful CanAm 2010.

Thank you! :tup:

The feedback only helps us make things better for next time, so please keep the feedback coming.

It was posted on the CanAm website with a link to the auction as well.

Couldn't have promoted it more than we did, if people didn't check either the website or the Forum, then.......... :?

Just wanna give a big up to Derek, G, D.J, SAV, Millz ( thanks for leadind the way back home millz really appreaciate it) and to all the drivers and passangers that came along.

My first time coming out and hopefully/certainly not the last either.

Worst part of Can Am: when we where all at the raffle ticket sales and auction, and the two bees where uhm.. Gettin it on. And I may have disturbed them and the one came right after me( think I did a ten meter dash and everyone laughed at me :( )

Best part of can am for me: The underground tunnel, like a scene out of an import tuner DVD lol

can't wait for next year.. State side WOOHOO (=^_^=)

- thanks to everyone behind the scenes that made it happen me and the wifey enjoyed the cruise once again
- great choice when it comes to the food (EUROPEAN MEATS) ftw...thanks btw victor!!!
- too bad the volleyball or other activities did not happen
- ladies and gentleman...we need to get the ladies involved! I'm sure most were bored...
- also next cruise...i'll bring a damn iPOD dock BOOMBOX! so people can just pop in their iphones/ipods so we can have some chunes...almost fell asleep riding the bike lol
- maybe setup games for everyone to participate and maybe win prizes??
- also as much as i loved G's new BBQ toy (w/ zipties w00t w00t!)..i think we should have another one setup...thank god for the tuna sandwich i waited till the end to get my food!

- too bad the volleyball or other activities did not happen - Yeah, alot of last minute stuff, so unfortunately the volleyball didn't happen...just forgot to grab it.

- ladies and gentleman...we need to get the ladies involved! I'm sure most were bored...
I think the volleyball would have helped.......

- also next cruise...i'll bring a damn iPOD dock BOOMBOX! so people can just pop in their iphones/ipods so we can have some chunes...almost fell asleep riding the bike lol we were supposed to have music, not sure what happened with that....overlooked with everything else that happened, I think

- maybe setup games for everyone to participate and maybe win prizes?? please see my volleyball comments. Also, we didn't get the stuff that was supposed to come up from the US, so there actually would have been more giveaways as well as raffle items and prizes

- also as much as i loved G's new BBQ toy (w/ zipties w00t w00t!)..i think we should have another one setup...thank god for the tuna sandwich i waited till the end to get my food! unfortunately, unless we actually have someone cooking shortly before we arrive, it's hard to make things go any faster. However, G and I did discuss, and we may actually get another one if the price is right. Hope someone is willing to bring it up in the back seat of their Skyline! :whistle:

BTW, that is the Official TAC Event BBQ! So, the next time we want to have something, we have the means to feed the masses! :tup:

Thanks for the feedback, Jonas!

Once again, congrats to the whole organisation!!!

I don't think I have anything to add since almost all the point was reported here.

I might add 2 or 3...

Should have 1 official media coverage by group. I don't think we had any into the C group. So Kiwi is disapointed not seeing her car a lot into the pictures hahaha
On the same note, once the cruise is done, I think it could be a great idea that one official photograph took a pictures of each cars(maybe with it's owner) and have this pictures given later with a high res quality image as a "I was there" memory pictures. (sorry, i don't know how to tell it better lol). And you know, Quebec's people like to complaining(quote from 2008 I think hahaha) and I need to give it to them, there is not much pictures of Quebec's guys vs the rest. (they told me about this and I need to agree with them)

As for the rules, I know, each past year, I was kind of the only one french speaking guy. Good for me, I can deal with the english with no big trouble. At least, you guys are always patient with me(Por15 related at Fireman's park hahaha), but this year, I had with me some people with VERY bad skills in english. So if next year they all come again(wich i am 90% sure of it, and pretty sure i'll bring even more people), you should plan an french translator hahaha. I know G's girlfriend is perfectly bilingual :p worst case, I could help with pleasure!

And my last point is for Sav, or SAV's related. Buddy! Stop doing your thing SOOOOO last minute hahaha. It was, and will ALWAYS be a pleasure for me to help you. But you should give you some time to sleep too! Oh and one reminder for myself, wet finger into SAV's ear in a sunday morning is a bad idea ahahhahah.

Tnx again guys! Still loving you all and can't wait for the 2011 edition!
Maybe we could plan an Quebec edition too later lol

Thank you organizers and everyone that helped out, it was a great weekend.

I gotta admit I was very skeptical, but the entire weekend was an unforgettable experience.

Met alot of great people this year, and I'll definitely be driving next year.

My only 2cents - more condiments for the hot dogs and burgers, Compliments to the level of dedication to all the organizers. They literally didn't have a bite till every single person was served their food. And when it came time, I'm pretty sure they didn't even have ketchup on it.
