Additional Information

Greetings Distinguished Gentlemen and Ladies,

Welcome to the 2025 Distinguished Gentleman's Drive! This event is a great way to raise funds for a worthy cause, and is a really fun day to boot! It's really great to see all of your classic cars out on the road every year.

Over the past 4 years, the Calgary Drive has raised over $85,000 for our charity partner, Movember Canada. With Drives in 200+ cities around the world, we have consistently been among the top fundraising cities worldwide! Your participation will help save men's lives, and for that we thank you. Please remember that all participating drivers need to register at www.gentlemansdrive.com (and make sure that you are registering for the Calgary Drive!) to get your fundraising links and to join us on the Drive as is required by our event insurance.

The gates to The Stash will be open by 8am for us to gather, chat, enjoy the cars, and prep for the drive. The Stash is along Hwy 2a just across from Big Sky BBQ. Facilities will be available on-site. 

The route is approximately 150km through the foothills, regrouping in Diamond Valley and at Granary Road, before carrying on back to The Stash for a wrap-up, awards, and prizes. 

Please ensure that you arrive with your vehicle fuelled up and roadworthy, and remember to wear your Sunday best!

Passengers are welcome! Invite them to join you for the day, and they can register as a passenger in your vehicle to join in on the fundraising as well. If you are bringing passengers who have not registered, please let me know so that I can try to keep a running head count to prepare for the event.

Please refer to the Vehicle Eligibility and Dapper Guide under the About DGD menu at the top of the page. If you have any questions about the day, the theme, or vehicle qualifications, please contact Liam by clicking "contact drive host" on the Drive Details page of your profile on www.gentlemansdrive.com or directly via email at [email protected]. 

Finally, please spread the word! The High River show is hard to compete with, but I think we put on a pretty decent rally for a great cause. If you have participated, you know that it's a banner day and it would be great if you could bring your friends to help us to grow the event.

We can't wait to see you all on September 28th!
