An email i got from the local rat, thought it might be of interest to those going to the kootenay raid.
Mike sent this out so just wanted to make sure everyone gets the information. Look forward to seeing you all up at Nelson.

Hello All;

Now for a bit of a back ground on the Raid and the dates.
Triumph has done some major internal restructuring. As a result internal planning has not gone as it should have. For instance the 2008 Calendar of events for North America was not slated until February. Prior to the meeting a mid to late August date would be the best case scenario. The Triumph meeting for execs and world wide dealers will be in England across the 18/19 July weekend. As you can appreciate, most people have booked their holidays around the anticipated July dates. So, here is the plan, Danny (owner of the New Grand) had booked the weekend of the 17>19th of July, for our event. So now we are having the Raid as a locally organized event, with a little help from our friends. There will be a banquet, prizes, etc., just like previous years. More on that in a later email. Some assistance we require for now is a design for a T-shirt. Please send your design thoughts to Danny.
