I have a question.
Does #4 included a trip through Toronto? If so, I need to change my selections.
I'm graphically dyslexic so this stuff is always a visual challenge.

Sandy

Region #4 includes Toronto as part of the region, but it goes all the way to Lake Simcoe. I am assuming we do not have member PTO members living downtown Toronto. If the PikNik was at someone's place in the Northern half of Region 4 closer to Lake Simcoe you could drive around the GTA and not have to go near Toronto someone doe not want to.

You must come this year!!! I will come pick you up!!! :)

Thanks @JimW. I will be there this year as long as Toronto isn't a part of the driving portion:)

I'm trying to get a handle on the stage of construction we'll be at here to see if we can do it here.
Won't know for a few months tho. Assuming it will be late summer again?
Time will tell.
Problem is I'm not really close to the majority.

Ok, so ... I think we can agree South Central wins.

Can someone tell me what South Central includes and I can start the search for potential locations? Directions/locations are NOT my thing.

In the map on the first page, it is the green section numbered 4, and includes the counties of Dufferin, Halton, Ontario, Peel, Simcoe and York. I think :?

The County of Ontario is now Durham Region. I think the map used was an archive map from 1951 but most of it is the same!
There's lots of nice areas in this part of the province well away from the big city/GTA but central to most...

I don't have any specific spots in mind but lots of nice country, in Simcoe and Dufferin, and the northern parts of Peel, Halton, York od Ontario. No trip to the city required. Plus Lake Simcoe and Georgian Bay.

Road trip!!!!!
