Classic Mini Fun Run #4 - Redux March 2015

Post by Minidave »

Weather cancelled our trip to the northwestern Arkansas hills last November, so we're planning to try it again in March over spring break.

The tentative dates are now March 14-17, due to work conflicts and such so mark your calendars and get your Minis ready for some fun!

The host hotel is the Best Western Eureka Springs - 800-814-8307

I'll add more names as people chime in, we'll be headquartered in Eureka Springs.

So far, we have...... :chili: :lyellow: :ps: :black: :indi: :chili: :brg: :ps: :chili: :elec:

Dimini - Red P'up
MiniDave - Champagne Beige Clubman Estate
Bruce K - white Cooper
DRuder - Black Cooper S
MiniManiac - Blue Cooper
DW - Red Cooper S
KSMINI - Green Cooper S
MiniX2 - White Cooper
ImagoX - Red Cooper
John K - Blue Cooper S

My MINI is 11 years old with 206,000 miles on it. Does it qualify as a classic? :lol:

If you want to do the end of the week, then 19-21 or 22 March works.

AAA rate at the hotel for $87 on the web. Anyone do any better than that by calling?

(I still get a little twitchy every time I type AAA...)

I think that was the rate they quoted me back in November. I haven't called yet for this upcoming trip.

Dave,

Is your plan to drive down on the 14th or are you heading out Friday, the 13th? I can do either, I just need to know so that I can make my hotel reservations.

Thanks! 8)
