english below Nous sommes chanceux de pouvoir compter sur une bonne santé mentale et la plupart dentre nous ont également la chance davoir des enfants en bonne santé. Malheureusement, pour les élèves de lécole du Sommet, ils doivent composer avec des problèmes de développement toute leur vie et les choses anodaines sont un défi pour eux (se laver, cuisiner, shabiller, se déplacer, etc...) Comme à chaque année, nous emmenons un peu de joie dans la vie de ces enfants en leur faisant faire un petit tour en Ferrari tout en recueillant un peu de fonds dont lécole a grandement besoin. Cette année le Ferrari fun Drive aura lieu ce samedi 28 mai de 9:00 à midi (dimanche en cas de pluie) Lécole est situé au 1750 rue Deguire, Ville St-Laurent (entrée sur le côté de lécole sur la rue Grenet) Nous avons grandement besoin de votre participation à cet événement magnifique. SVP enregistrez-vous au Ferrari Fun Drive ? by Ferrari Club of America Quebec Chapter Merci de votre collaboration et de votre soutien We are so lucky to be able to enjoy sound mental health and most of us are also lucky to have healthy children. Unfortunately, for the students of the Summit School, they have to deal with developmental issues their entire life and simple things are a challenge for them (getting dressed, eating, cooking, travelling, etc...) Like every year, we bring some joy in the lives of these kids by bringing them for a ride in a Ferrari and collecting some funds for the school which is greatly needed. This year, the Ferrari Fun Drive will be held this Saturday May 28th from 9am to noon (Sunday in case of Rain) The school is located at 1750 rue Deguire, Ville St-Laurent (entrance is on the side on Grenet street) We desperately need your participation to this amazing event.

Got some pretty exciting news about the Alfa Convention last night at the Club Fiat Montreal general assembly but I can't yet reveal it... The concorso will be held in Little Italy during the Fiat Breakout on ALMA street which will be renamed ALFA street on that day!
I just acquired a sweet little Italian from Montreal (Fiat 850 Spider) and need to bring it home to western USA. Can anyone there recommend someone who can facilitate this? I don't want to pay up for enclosed transport, comfortable with open. Also need it moved through the border, so knowledge/assistsnceneeded here as well. Thanks for any recs.

Fab, Tell us more! No one reported on the Alfa-Romeo Expo67 reunion and cruise to Montreal. There were apparently a dozen Montreal Image Unavailable, Please Login
Hi Denis, Sorry I don't really post or visit fchat much anymore...kind of lost the motivation and the audience in the Canada section aren't really members of my club so we use mostly Social media. The 2017 Breakout was pretty incredible....100 Alfa Romeos from all over North America as far as Seattle, Florida, etc....thanks to the contribution of Alfa Expo 17. Was absolutely insane and the weather was with us once again.
So cool! Yes, we had a few members of the AROC here in Seattle attend. Looking forward to hearing the "debrief" at our August member meeting. I hope they bring pictures, or publish them in the monthly newsletter.
During my meanderings, I came across a local car that was featured in Petrolicous. Happy (lite) reading. https://petrolicious.com/articles/1978-ferrari-dino
