The three area MINI dealerships are hosting holiday events.
Here is a quick wrapup and links to RSVP and additional details

Our annual end of season drive to Starved Rock will be on Saturday November 1st.
This event was renamed the Road Warrior Rock Run in 2016 to honor longtime club and board member Conrad Alexander.

WRAPUP: Beautiful fall day for our end of season drive to Starved Rock. We had a good sized bunch of 22 MINIs exploring lots of fun twisty roads. A couple of 1st timers and several long time members who we havent seen in a while..

Huge thanks to Joe B. for help with the start location and some of the drive planning and to Mark H. for setting up the Rallista route.

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!
