Mini Meet East Meets West 2

Post by Minidave »

In conjunction with the Mini-sota club, they're putting on a huge classic Mini themed event in support of the 50 year anniversary, and thousands of classic Mini's are projected to be there, along with a substantial number of MINIs.

Dimini and I are planning to go, anyone else want to join in the fun?

Go here for links to the festivities, it's only about 450 miles there, so it's not as far as the Dragon or other east coast events.

Also, here's a PDF Brochure for the event.........Brochure

Judy and I will be there.

We were at the last EmW in IL -- it was an amazing event. I'm really looking forward to it!

It was a fun event. Even split between classics and new MINIs. Weather was awesome. I even wore long-sleeve shirts most of the time. That certainly beats the humidity and heat of KC. It was nice to see die-hard classic enthusiasts share parking lots with the new Gen folks. People behaved. I did not take my pick-up because of a last minute suspension problem and the discovery that it overheats in 96F weather. Too busy at work to get it sorted before the trip took place. Oh well. Car pooling w/MINIdave in the Clubby was fun and 100x more civilized than driving the p'up w/earplugs for hours on end.
