       Tim et all, the English version has been coming for a long time.  
Don't know what's holding it up except the person in charge of doing it is 
very busy.  You can e-mail Marie Josee at:  josee.rodrigue@arc.ulaval.ca, she 
is perfectly bilingual and will send you all the details of the Madeleine 
Island event.  What I know to date is this:   <A HREF="http://www.westfalia.qc.ca/">Club international de 
camping-car Westfalia</A>  Maeleine Islands Camping Event, August 11 ~ 17, make 
your own ferry reservations well in advance by contacting <A HREF="www.ctma.ca">www.ctma.ca</A>, you 
must be a member of the IWCCC to attend this event, cost is $30 CND.  Ferry 
ride is five hours and propane fridges will have to be turned off.  Two 
ferrys/day with first one at 2 pm.  Cost of the camping event has not been 
released yet but they expect it to be under $100 CND for the week, less if 
you do not plan on being there all week.  There are lots of activities 
planned for the week which will culminate in a huge Lobster feast for 
everyone on Saturday evening, August 16.  Camping space will be tight as over 
500 Westfalias are expected so campers will be double or triple billing on 
the same campsite.  Electricity and water hook-ups will be available.  No 
awnings or tents will be permitted due to very high wind conditions on the 
Islands and limited space for them.  That's what I know so far.
