A Message from the President

Automobile manufacturing must be among the most difficult industry in the entire world. The government emission regulations, safety standards and union demands constantly make for major challenges. The designers struggle to imagine what car shoppers will expect in the years to come and yet have no clue as to what the market will bare or how much better the competition will have read the future.

Models come and go but very few cars can match the colourful history that the Camaro has enjoyed. Everyone has either owned a Camaro or knows someone who has owned a Camaro and has a story to tell that includes the car. The Ontario Camaro club is made up of folks like this who have a soft spot in their hearts for the Chevrolet icon. For over forty years Camaros have roamed the streets evolving through four distinct body designs always living up to their reputation as being a sexy, nasty and fun car at a reasonable price. When production came to an end in 2002, it was a sad day indeed for many of us who have come to love the Camaro, but now a new day has dawned.

On March 16th 2009, the all new fifth generation of Camaro began. The engineers have managed to put together a modern Camaro that reflects its heritage, manages fuel consumption very well, is reasonably priced and has not been neutered in the performance department. It has been some time since something this exciting has made it to the showroom floor and the Ontario Camaro Club could not be happier. Let the celebration begin and watch for some real good deals on Mustangs and Challengers at your local Chevy dealers used car inventory.

President, Ontario Camaro Club

About Us

The Ontario Camaro Club is dedicated to the preservation of the Camaro. We encourage the ownership and care of all Camaros ...original, restored, modified or race ready.

Our club was established in August 1988 as the Ontario Chapter of the International Camaro Club. On January 1, 1999, we became the Ontario Camaro Club. We are an independent organization managing our own membership, newsletter, events and website.

We are a non-profit entity and proceeds resulting from any of our special activities are for the benefit and support of our selected charity, the Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus Association of Ontario. To find out more about SB&H just click on Spina Bifida.

Every year, we host the Ontario Camaro Nationals which is the longest running Camaro-only show in Canada and this past June 2009 was our 21st annual event. To see what's going on at this year's show visit the 2010 SHOW page.

We are very indebted to our valued Sponsors who make our show and our very existence possible. Please support them at every opportunity. Visit our SPONSORS PAGE to find out who can help you with your Camaro.

We have over 235 active members. Although most of our members are from the province of Ontario, we do have members from other provinces and the United States as well.

Our meetings are on the last Saturday of the month from September to May (excluding December) at Wilson Niblett Chevrolet in Richmond Hill, Ontario....our headquarters dealership.

Along with our annual Summer BBQ, we choose a show each summer as our club participation event and travel as a group to one of our brother/sister club shows. We never go unnoticed at these events. Our awesome cars always take more than their fair share of awards and along with sporting our club banner and apparel, the OCC makes a positive impression wherever it goes.

Each March, the OCC participates in Performance World at the International Centre on Airport Road in Toronto where we have a walk-around display made up of members' cars. Each year will see new and different cars being showcased.

To find out about membership in the OCC, please visit our MEMBERSHIP page. Our Membership Application/Renewal Form can be printed from this section. We have come a long way and there's a lot more of the journey left. So come aboard for the great Camaro experience.... OCC style!!
