Superdawg 7/22

WRAPUP:  What a fun event!!  We had over 30 MINIs (and a Mini) of every size and style fill the back parking area at Superdawg.  There were many new and potential club members, and lots and lots of old friemds.  Several club members even showed up in brand new MINIs, and many cars came in from Wisconsin, as well as Aurora, DeKalb and other far away places.  Kevin from MINI of Chicago brought in a suprise Hot Dog topped Countryman.   Our friends Motoringfile  even stopped by and showed off a couple cool new and old BMWs. Weather was warm, but fine for hanging out and visiting until the very late hours.   Huge thanks to SuperDawg for being such great hosts to our club, including giving out some drinks and extras, to Kevin and Mark from MINI of Chicago for bringing in the Hot Dog Countryman, to Arnie for helping with all the arrangements, and to everyone who came out to make it such a wonderful event and evening!!

July 4th Parade

WRAPUP:  Perfect weather for the half dozen MINIs that participated in this years parade.  The crowd was large and enthusiastic with lots of children looking for candy.  The MINIs were a crowd favorite getting lots of attention.  A good time was had by all, except when the radio control MINI leading the field accidentally ran over the pile of horse poop..
