Any Newfoundlanders out there????

Hey guys, I think this is my first time posting on the Ontario board. I just wanted to say hello to my fellow Canadians and to let any "displaced newfs" know who are missing home that we have a F-Body club here now. We also have a website, www.nf-fbody.com. It started earlier this year, and we are growing more and more each month. The member list stands somewhere near 25 now. Not bad for only a few months, and a population of only 500,000 in the entire province. Anyways, anybody who is from Newfoundland and are missing home, now you can get a little closer to being here again.

Thanx!!!

Thanks for the warm welcome. I've read many of marks posts, we'll leave him where he is! We have grown fairly rapidly here, considering the population. I guess we where like anywhere else, we had lots of f-bods flying around but no one took the time to organize anything, so know we did and we are loving it. Days at the track, weekly cruises, it's a great bit of fun!
