If you can do:
VIR, WG, Mosport, Tremblant, Calabogie and Road Atlanta in one trip you can die a happy man in my opinion - those are easily my top 6 on the East Coast.
Only issue is summer temps with VIR and Road Atlanta - those days could be brutal in July - Tremblant, WG and Calabogie would however be near perfect - especially WG and Tremblant where you can go out for a nice dinner and be in a nice non-track environment at night - those are my Top 2 for the summer.

VIR vs Summit... Haha! No contest.
If you want to experience a close encounter with deer on the track Summit is the place to be. And when it rains there the paddock turns into a lagoon.
If you want to go to the best track in the Northeast, VIR is where it's at.

Need to get a Google calendar, or something, going to line up all of the overlapping club DE dates...or use the idea of someone that can reserve the tracks for the group.
Friends at Tremblant and Monticello can help fill in gaps.
I already reached out on both and they said happy to help when we know dates.

With this much lead time it is almost better to arrange, through a sponsor, your own Mancation days at Mosport, Tremblant and Calabogie. One call to someone like Gerry Low (416.809.6803) can probably make this happen. He does his own stuff and also works with Pfaff up here at Mosport. There is no question in my mind that if you give him the week you want to do Mosport -> Calabogie -> Tremblant then he can figure it out. You would then leave Montreal and cross boarder on way to Watkins.
The other thing someone like Gerry Low can do is potentially reach out to the right people at Tremblant (Bob on rennlist as an example) to get help to set up a Tremblant day.
Glad you guys put Tremblant on the list - Tremblant is in my Top 4 with Mosport, Watkins and VIR.
To have the best time, you want to avoid the big PCA days and basically have private days with 30 other guys - 10x better experience - basically the same cost.

Peter and Randy, I have sent you Gerry Low's calendar for 2012. He could possibly be your best bet to help you customize the program.
Gerry knows you guys from last year.

I don't have enough time as I'm flying out to look into it, but will Sunday and Monday.
No Road Atl or VIR for me on Maniacation, been there a few times already and I can get there any weekend leaving Friday AM and be home Monday around noon.
We go fast, we go far.
I say straight to Canada and NJMP and Monticello on the way up or on the way down. Anything I missed North of VA?

Private track days preferred, think I will start in NJMP June 27+28 with Dave Murry and fill in from there,
Maybe as Francoise suggested
Just have to find monticello day between 29 and 5th.
Maybe as Francoise suggested
One example if you want to stick to DEs:
July 6 - 8, Calabogie by PCA NER
July 10 - 12, Temblant by PCA NER
July 13 - 15, Mosport by PCA NNJR
July 6 - 8, Calabogie by PCA NER
July 10 - 12, Temblant by PCA NER
July 13 - 15, Mosport by PCA NNJR
