MINIs will be back at Superdawg on a prime time Saturday night!!

WRAPUP: Super Superdawg Saturday!!

We had about 30 MINIs participating in a fun drive thru the Cul De Sacs of Vernon Hills ending at Superdawg. The rain held out until about 1/2 way thru the drive and then cleared after we arrived.

We had a few first-timers, and lots of old friends. The long distance award goes to Phyllis and Lee coming in from Tennessee.

A great evening hanging out and visiting with everyone!

Who is going to the biggest MINI event in the area August 1 and 2?

WRAPUP:

The afternoon started wet but everything dried out before we departed. We had 9 MINIs out for the drive, which is a nice size to keep everyone together. There were a couple first timers and the rest have been on prior drives. A fun cruise thru North Aurora and Sugar Grove back roads and a stop for some yummy Ice Cream.

Thanks to Mark H. for creating the rallista routing and to everyone who came out for the drive!
