Summer MINIs on the Dragon?

Interesting item in the Tail of the Dragon calendar...
  • June 25-30 Summer MINIs on the Dragon headquartered at Fontana Village.
Does anyone know about this? Seems odd, I'd never heard of it before... unless it's organized by some of the more local clubs, like Smoky Mountain MINIs, Tar Heel MINIs and/or Atlanta MINIs?

I know that some people get together every year for a (much more informal) Fall of the Dragon, but seeing that on the Tail of the Dragon site definitely made me curious.

Does anyone here know anything?

This is probably the small group that heads down in the summer... Koolmini, Clover and a few others...

I've not heard a thing...just checked our Atlanta MINIs Calendar and noth'in.

June 25 is a Sunday. if the event is from June 25 - 30 that would be Sunday through the following Friday...WEEK DAYS!!!

Though I don't set up the events for our Atlanta MINIs, I think it is totally doubtful that we would set up an event during weekdays.

As a matter of fact we are tossing around what kind of trouble to get into in June.

Here is the thread where the event originated, it was started as a means for all those who have commitments (like school) during MOTD to still have a chance to meet NAMers and drive the twisities. All are welcome to attend

I've known about this listing on The Dragon web site for more than 6 months now,
but I don't know why.

Because it's been listed on the Calendar that long?

Wait.. is this the small yearly summer group (I thought they went in July) or the group of people that had exams/prior commitments that prevented them from going to MoTD??? I seem to recall a 'College kids on the dragon' thread or something of the sort.
