Please circulate this information to OMVA guys who may want
to bring a vehicle, or even just attend.
This year's Doors Open event at the Small Arms site in Long
Branch will take place on Saturday, September 29, from 10:00am
to 4:00pm.
Dixie Road & Lakeshore Road East, Mississauga
Last year's opening was a great success. We had re-encators
dressed as members of the 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion,
the FSSF, and the US 101st Airborne. Because of advance publicity
in the local media we attracted over 1300 visitors in just
six hours. This was more than three times the count at the
second most popular Doors Open location in Mississauga.
We have already signed up the re-enactors for this year,
only in larger numbers, and we're talking to the Ontario Regiment
Museum in Oshawa about having Bart, their M4 Sherman, attend.
I'm confident that if we can arrange for the Sherman to be
there the media will definitely pay attention, which would
be good for the Small Arms site, the Ontario Regiment Museum,
and the OMVA.
