NOTE: for this get-together we are actually getting winter! Bring your warm clothes. Don’t forget some things to keep your head and feet warm. Saabs have wonderful aerodynamics but make sure you have windshield washer fluid anyway. Check your tire pressure: it drops in the cold.
On the Family Day long weekend, get together with your fellow Saab Club members and Saab owners and come out to see ice racing in Minden Ontario. This is the middle of Winterfest in Minden, and there’s lots more to see and do. For the whole family, in fact.
We meet 10-10:30 AM at the McDonald’s on Highway 12 just outside Beaverton (north of Beaver Ave), and leave at 10:30 to take a scenic drive to Minden, which is in cottage country on the nicest route to Algonquin Park.
All the details are in the event listing.
I hope to be there! See you 10 am -ish,Beaverton! Mark Marcon
Kind of late, but there are a lot of Toronto, OPP, and Durham region officers out there pulling over quicker drivers. Not that Saab drivers would speed.
For a while it was looking like an early Spring get-together with flowers and singing birds and everything. But it looks like we’ll get some real winter!
Great driving up there! Unfortunately, the timing won’t work for me this weekend.
I recommend HWY 21 from Minden to Haliburton. Plus, many other routes.
