Founders Day any Islanders going?

#1 Post by island dormy » Tue Sep 30, 2025 10:09 pm

Howdy

A couple of us islanders may catch the first ferry out of Departure bay on Saturday the 4th of October to go over to Founders day............. all the way out past Abbotsford.

Any body else going over?

I've got spare seats, if anybody needs a ride.

The Dormobile may make its first founders day appearance in 20+ years. Weather permitting of course, and so far the weathergirls lookout is positive for the weekend.

Talk soon Victor

Sorry you missed a pretty good show. Lots of coilers and air baggers there with only a few leafers to fill out the collection. My Wolf and trailer won a people’s choice award which came with an awesome etched mug. Raffle draw had some nice prizes as well. A few island trucks were there but not as many as in some past years.
