MINI TAKES THE STATES is back after being delayed a few years and will be bigger than ever!!

Many Chicago area Club members and even former club members that have moved away will be in attendance.

Who likes driving MINIs and listening to the Blues?

We will be taking a neighborhood drive to listen to CMMC member Dave Hoffheimer Band performing live at Ten Ninety Brewing Company in Glenview.

WRAPUP: A smaller crowd of 5 cars (3 MINIs a classic Mustang and a classic Eagle Talon) took off from MINI of Glencoe for a short cruise on some fun area roads. We were joined by a couple other club members at the Ten Ninety brewing company where we enjoyed some good eats and a performance by the Dave Hoffheimer Band. Big thanks to Dave and to MINI of Glencoe!!
