Austin-Healey
Owners Association of British Columbia to host
Rendezvous
2012
at Tigh
Na Mara Resort at Parksville, on Vancouver Island, Canada
June 25
to 29, 2012
2012 is
a Milestone year for our beloved Austin Healeys. It marks the 60th Anniversary of
the introduction of the BN1 at Earl's Court, London, UK. The British Columbia Club
is pleased to once again host Rendezvous, this time at Tigh Na Mara Resort at Parksville,
on Vancouver Island. Many members of our club were fortunate to have a long standing
relationship with the Healey family, and along the way, some of our members became
friends with DMH as well as with Geoff, Margot and John and Joy. These friendships
were very important to the development of our club from early the years from our
inception in 1974.
We decided
to theme this meet on the anniversary year; and selected the BN 1 to be incorporated
into the Meet logo.
Parksville
is a picturesque seaside town on the east coast of Vancouver Island and the venue.
Tigh Na Mara Is a four star seaside resort famous for summer
fun for generations of B.C. residents. You will find great driving opportunities
coming to Parksville, and even more once you arrive. We are planning a relaxing
week with events designed to appeal to many interests for you to enjoy your time
on Vancouver Island.
A website
has been established for the Meet. www. healeyrendezvous.com, which will provide
you with registration and regalia information as well as information on what to
expect when you arrive. For the first time you can register for Rendezvous, purchase
regalia and pay securely on line, via Visa, or you can download the registration
form and return your registration information via e-mail or by post. For additional
information on the meet and the area, Facebook users can access our Facebook page,
Austin Healey Rendezvous 2012.
Registration
and regalia is by attendee and registration is required to obtain a booking code
for your accommodation. There are several accommodation options including Hotel
rooms, cabins, multi bedroom units and Oceanside studio and one bedroom units. It
is important to note that the room rate we have negotiated will expire on May 15,
2012. Reservations after that date will be subject to rack rate.

our friends from Canada, the United States and overseas once again. We hope to see
you in Parksville.
