Hello Everyone, Trillium Chapter is excited to bring you our first Advanced Driving School at Calabogie Motorsports Park (1 hour west of Ottawa, 3 hrs west of Montreal, and 4 hrs northeast of Toronto). Calabogie is a great track to drive at with over 20 turns and a distance of over 5 km (25% longer than Mosport). We will hold a 3 day event starting on Friday, July 19 and ending Sunday July 21.  Saturday and Sunday will consist of on-track and classroom sessions for all levels of drivers, novice through advanced, as well as pre-approved solo.

Members and Instructors. The September school is filling quickly with 80% of the spots now taken. September is one of our most popular dates since the weather is often dry, reasonably not too hot and not too cool, and still great amount of sunlight. With the school more than 3/4 full, a 'Sold Out' sign is soon to appear. Please apply today.

To contact the registrar for any questions regarding this event please email us at  registrar@trilliumbmwclub.ca

Thank you

Dear Members

It may have come to your attention that during a recent BMW Clubs Canada members meeting, the BMW Clubs Canada board of directors voted to terminate Trillium's membership in BMW Clubs Canada effective February 8, 2019.

This is the club's Q&A page meant to answer questions about the club's web site.  Please make sure you fully understand all policies on membership and events before signing up.

As of 2017 (TBA 2018), the minimum standard for accepted helmets at BMW Club of Canada, Trillium Chapter driving events will be SA2010. Please do not confuse M2010 with SA2010. M is for 'M'otorcyle, not 'M'otorsport. We do not accept motorcycle (i.e. M-rated) helmets.  For more information on helmet standards, please see the web site of the Snell Memorial Foundation at http://www.smf.org/stds.
