Unimogs showed up last year. Time to show what a Pinzgauer can do too! I'll be there for certain and may bring the Rover too. A MUST FOR ALL ONTARIO, NEW YORK, QUEBEC AND MEMBERS WHO CAN MAKE IT!

31st OVLR Birthday Party
Silver Lake, ON — June 20-22, 2014
Dust off memories of trails like the “Light” off-road,
the Heavy Off-Road on the hydro line, Bolton Creek
and Ernie’s land. The RTV competition. A great BBQ
dinner Saturday night. Then the entertainment of
the Sunday auction where the auctioneers attempt
to channel Bate’s auction style, “This item is one of a
kind...”
The Event
The event will be held near Silver Lake, Ontario, because
of the geographical location being central to the bulk of
OVLR regional members as well as having some diverse
terrain upon which to host the event. (bedrock, cedars
swamp, and mud). Silver Lake is located about sixty miles
west of Ottawa on Highway 7.
Accommodation
Register your campsite at Silver Lake Provincial Park
– real toilets and showers. Swimming and playground
available. Members typically concentrate in the
Dawson Campground (see map below) with the
“party” site being #40.

Put the weekend of June 20 to 22 on your calendar.
Book the Friday the 20th off from work. Dust the
cobwebs off your Land-Rover and do your Spring
tune up. Plan to head out to the Deacon’s place near
Maberly.
Watch the website for updates, RSVP will follow. http://www.ovlr.org/
