While you're enjoying the show, our performers serve our famous all-Canadian, family-style meal; at what other restaurant are you served your dinner by a singing Mountie?

Your meal begins as soon as you are seated when you are served our Garden Salad, Fresh Bread and French Canadian Pea Soup. Once these courses are complete, the show begins.

Your main course is served approximately 45 minutes into the show. Enjoy a taste of Canada from coast to coast with a selection of Manitoba Roasted Chicken, Lightly Battered & Fried Atlantic Haddock, Alberta Grade “EH” Roast Beef, Vegetable Medley and Roasted PEI Potatoes. Your main course is served family-style on large platters so you can help yourself!

There is the same commitment to greatness. The understanding that it takes a team of truly passionate players to create world-class results. And the belief that a loonie buried in the ice can always bring a little extra luck.

Kim and I are looking forward to attending. The dates are in our calendars. I am curious regarding SOB's not being invited. As you know several long time members have transitioned to SOB over the years and we still enjoy and look forward to their participation in the Ontario rally's. What makes the regional rally different?

What makes the regional rally different?

2 principal differences: 1) they often sell out, so an SOB might be keeping a Heartland owner from attending, and 2) Heartland funds the region rallies at a much, much higher level than chapter rallies.

Seems like such a long way off... but at this point I think we're planning to attend.

Glad to see some new members intending to attend. That's great.

Now that the Xmas season is over, we'll be concentrating more on the rally. I am presently finalizing camping costs with the resort and I should be able to update some information shortly.
