Calling all Mid West Coopers! River City MINI Rally June 21 & 22 2008
St Louis MINI Club and Chicago MINI Motoring Club welcome you to the
inaugural River City MINI Rally in Peoria IL. Peoria is an oasis in the
flatlands of central Illinois. Motoring into the picturesque Illinois
River Valley of Peoria is a relief from the miles of corn and beans. This
is a FREE event. There will be two catered meals to budget into your trip.
Once we have the details we will post them here. Please check back for
updates.
