I'll third that! (edit- Oops, Elaine got there before me)
I've only been to a couple other meets, but this one was the best!!
What an amazing bunch of people.
Pierre's group did a fantastic job keeping us happy! Whether it was passing out the beer at night or the great meals through the day, they were always there with a smile and seemed to be having as much fun as the rest of us were.

I would like to be on the list of people who want to thank Pierre for such a great job of hosting the meet, and his family too. Everything was well organized and ran smoothly.

Aside from almost being syphoned out of the tour bus thru an exit window everything was dandy. Hard to get back to harsh reality of day to day "catchin' up".

Pierre and his group did an excellent job. The food was fantastic and the meet went WFO from the beginning right til the end..........unreal. Not only does my face hurt from laughing but my sides too. I've added a bunch more good friends to my list. The comradeirie was great and I got to sit in on a roundtable discussion that was,........... well let's just say different Posted by Jillbeans (Member # 1912) on :
Pierre, Your Meet was AWESOME!!! So cleverly planned and arranged, it ran like clockwork. The food was good & plentiful, the beer was kick-ass, there was plenty of paint, panels, & talent, your friends and family were wonderful, Marie-Claude & the kids are gourgeous, the Hedz were way kool, and I can honestly say that it was the best meet I ever attended. We got in last night @ 10pm. The kids went back to school today (YEEHAW!)Sorry if they were bad, but I had to bring 'em. THANK YOU, MERCI, GRACIAS, ETC. Love Yins. JILL ps no French kisses tho...

Pierre,
Thank you so much. You, your family and friends put on a great meet and all of your hard work really showed.
I met some old friends, met some new ones, and generally just had a lot of fun. What a talented bunch! After many emails and critiques back and forth, I finally had the pleasure of meeting one of my favorite designers, Janette. Special thanks to Mark Z for taking some time to show me a few pinstriping basics and even letting me help (actually hinder) on a truck.
Merci beaucoup!

Denis,
Through all of the hoopla it seems you were kinda overlooked here. Thank you for the warm welcome and great hospitality (and the extra cooler of Molson!)You guys were great to all of us.
Nice job on Matt's car too.
Posted by Janette Balogh (Member # 192) on :
Big cheers to Pierre and Crew ... the hosts with the most!
If laughter burns calories, surely I MUST have burned off all the good stuff they fed us with at this meet.
I'd like to express special thanks to those who spent their time teaching me, one on one, ... Joe C., Dana, George, and Bill Riedel. I'll strive to make their time with me a good investment.
Bob Darnell, has been one of my favs from the moment he appeared on this board. The gift of his panel really threw me for a loop. It's home safe,and I'm still beaming!
This meet was full of sparks! I'm blessed to know such a great group of friends.
Thanks for all the inspiration, and the smiles! I really needed this "fix".
Nettie
ps: Will share our photos soon!

I'm certainly going to be spoiled since this was my first "full blown" meet.
I had a great time in Quebec and feel honored to have met such a fantastic group of people.
Many thanks to Pierre and everyone who made it possible!
