WHEN: SATURDAY, MAY 3RD, 2014

They are putting us by the Farris Theater on West Main Street. For those who are needing an address for their GPS devices: 301 West Main Richmond MO 64085. Some of the streets around the courthouse will be closed so you will need to take some side streets to get to our location.
I would like to encourage everyone to show up prior to 10:30 am as we will be part of the festival and I am certain people will want to see all of the different MINI's. A rough itinerary is list below:
TIMETABLE:
8:30 AM-9:00 AM: ARRIVE IN RICHMOND, MO Farris Theatre @ 301 W Main St. Richmond, MO
9:00 AM-12:00 PM: SOCIALIZE- MUSHROOM FESTIVAL ACTIVITIES
12:00 PM (NOON) : ORGANIZE FOR MUSHROOM FESTIVAL PARADE
12:15 PM: DRIVE TO PARADE LINE-UP
1:00 PM: MUSHROOM FESTIVAL PARADE
2:00 PM: RETURN TO RALLY SITE
2:30 PM: Optional Social gathering
(PARK YOUR MINI AT THE RALLY SITE AND COME TO THE OPTIONAL SOCIAL GATHERING, STAY AS LONG AS YOU LIKE OR DEPART AFTER THE PARADE)
WHY: This will be the third year that there will be a MINI Cooper Rally at the Richmond Mushroom Festival. Last year, ten MINI’s attended (26 were pre-registered & planned to attend before some winter weather showed up) and we all enjoyed the parade and diversity of the Mushroom Festival. There were many unique vendors and a wide array of foodstands. The people of Richmond loved seeing the MINI’s in the parade and wanted us to come back this year.
DETAILS: The Mushroom Festival is an annual event that attracts a lot of people and they start on Thursday evening and conclude on Sunday. They have provided us a area to display our MINI’s next to vendors. There is no cost, just a great time for fellowship, to display our MINI’s and participate in their Mushroom Festival parade.
MINI PASSION: Hilary Morrissey is a passionate MINI owner. She has attended MINI Cooper shows and events throughout the state as well as hosting the MINI’s to Macon show in October 2011 & 2013. The opportunity to get a group of MINI’s together at a fun event seems very appealing, so here we go! Mark Saturday, May 3rd, 2014 on your calendar and make the trip to Richmond, Missouri!
TO MAKE RESERVATIONS: Please e-mail Hilary Morrissey at ministomacon@gmail.com with your first and last name, the year, model, and color of your MINI.
