I'm guessing you skimmed over the wording fast... not the Peterborough club the Peterborough Snowmobile Show is rumoured to have been bought according to the post.

livin' on the b103 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Yes, I was told by a reliable source that the Peterborough Show has been sold to the same group that run the Toronto Show. Dennis, you have no idea how much I share your sentiments!!! Livin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denis... you've got it all wrong... all you need is enough support from your friends of whom I am sure there are many to vote you in as President. They would need to have a greater number voting for status quo. Then as President you go ahead and speak your mind. Something tells me that would be a lot of common sense.

Techdenis007 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I don't bring anything to the table. Not against the millionaires club anyway. Club would lose the support and equipment contributions from Villeneuve construction, and if they bail others might too. I might get in when the old boys retire.....

gsx6 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I have also heard from a reliable source that the sale of the show was finalized yesterday. Just want to thank Joe for starting the Peterborough Sledarama show and building it into the great show that it has become. Hopefully it will continue to be as good as it is now. Being from the area it is nice to not have to go all the way to Toronto for a good sled show. All the best to Joe and his family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've stopped attending the Toronto show because if you are not looking for something new, it's just not worth the price of admission anymore. Some great deals to be had at WildBill's and the Group that was selling off the non-current Ski-doo stuff (Not sure if they are still). Royal sucks a$$ these days, unless you want to wear a cheap suit. Some of their pricing is so high, and then some is really good. You have to be edumacated before you shop.

revrnd Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Easy guys, I doubt you'll see any of that @ the Peterboro show. Any whiff of females being objectified will cause the usual suspects to picket the Memorial Centre (see Old Milwaukee 'pinup' billboard protest).

I would assume a two day show likely a different venue and increased ticket price along with bumped up floor prices for the vendors. This would drive away the smaller vendors selling stock and looking for exposure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
