Please find the group here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/west...adacamaroclub/ Additionally, there is a Facebook event created for this cruise!

Staples, Red Deer Rocky Mountain House stop and lunch The Chevrolet dealership in Rocky Mountain House, Edwards Garage, www.edwardsgarage.com, will once again be hosting a lunch for our group! Just like last year, the dealership has elected to work with the local Boys and Girls club to cook! Lunch will cost you a (minimum) $5 donation per person to the Rocky Mountain House Boys and Girls club. A great cause and worthy of our support based on all that Edwards Garage has done for us over the past few years! Edwards Garage Ltd Trip to Banff Rocky Mountain House to Saskatchewan Crossing is about 190km, with three stops along the way:
Banff Hotel: We have made arrangements for a group discount at the Douglas Fir Resort and Chalet for this event. HOWEVER, there are no blocked off rooms! It is first come first served! If you want a room, please book now!! To book a hotel room, please phone: 1-800-661-9267 Use reference #ABCC14 to get the preferred rates. The following prices are for June 18th, 2016: $170.00 Studio Room (up to 4 people)Children 16 years and under stay free when sharing with an adult. Above rates are a per night rate and based on 2 adults in a room. Extra adults are $20 per person per night. Rates do not include applicable taxes. In addition to the discounted rooms above, you may also be interested in their Two and Three Bedroom A Frame Chalets! Their cancellation policy is 48 hours – any cancellations made within 48 hours of arrival will be charged a fee of 1 night room and tax. Douglas Fir Resort & ChaletFor those headed to Jasper: We do not have a designated hotel. Last year we used the Best Western Jasper Inn & Suites, and have also used the Marmot Lodge in previous years. Banff Dinner and drinks afterward! Dinner will be at the Rose and Crown in downtown Banff. We can order A La Cart, off their standard menu. The chef doesn't see our group size being an issue for them at all, and they are flexible on the numbers. They have a games room with pool tables, buck hunter, foose ball and tables and booths that will accommodate us and we will have our own servers. This will allow us to mix and mingle or sit and relax after driving. They also have a roof top patio which is hopefully open in June! They request an 18% gratuity on our bills but we can pay individually. The hotel offers free transit passes for those that don't want to walk to the restaurant, or drive and try and find parking. Group bus trip! Rose and Crown Breakfast - Sunday, June 19, 2016 - Father's Day With everyone leaving on Sunday at different times, as well as the marathon happening on Sunday with potential parking/traffic issues, we have opted to let people organize their own breakfast! Some suggestions we have are:
Approximate Itinerary: Calgary/Edmonton TIPS
Please note: The Banff Marathon is also on Fathers Day, Sunday, June 19, 2016. For those looking to visit downtown Banff on Sunday, please be aware of some road closures and other activities going on throughout the day. Visit http://banffmarathon.com/ for more information.
