A few changes to the Itinerary.
- the Cochrane Days Inn has reduced their rate for us by $50.00!
- We have changed our hotel in Kelowna. We are now staying at the Coast Capri Hotel. Better part of the city!
- We are not doing the winery tour.
- Trip between Kelowna and Tappen will be on local paved roads and we will not be on Highway 97A. Local corvette owners say its a beautiful drive. Oh and so does does @thomigun.
- The White Post Auto Mall and Antique shop in Tappen has graciously said they will open on Sunday for us to visit. This is close the Rust Bros. but info is Mike and crew will be out of town. Damn, i hope they change their mind!
- We will be stopping in Sicamous for an outdoor light lunch @ the OK Tire shop. the owner has graciously opened his doors, even though he's closed to host us. Jeef and I want to organize the cars into a giant OK in front of his shop to take some good photos to share with him.
- Dessert will be at the D Dutchman Dairy about a block away as well the the fruit stand for anyone wanting fresh BC items.
- There's a go cart track across the street, Just sayin'.
Heard from many of the registrants and we are definitely excited to head out. We will be practicing physical distancing and have sent out guidelines about using sanitizers, masks, gloves etc. The hotels range from leaving rooms vacant 1 to 2 days before entering and doing a thorough clean prior to the next guests to use the rooms. Hotels are running between 50 to 65% capacity to account for cleaning.
Feedback from our contacts in all cities we are stopping is positive. They are welcoming visitors back but just want people to abide by the requirements. The new normal.
If you haven't already seen the new post, 3 Valley Gap is offering people who want to come out and stay with us for the evening of July 26, just call and book saying you are joining the 2020 RMCC. They will give you 10% off your room rate and then just say you want to join the BBQ as well. For a charge there is options of Steak, Chicken or vegetarian choices.
