We will be there for the Peoria Rally. The hotel that was selected does not allow pets. I don't know if this will be an issue for other rally goers.

I'm hoping to attend. I haven't seen much chatter about it, though. Maybe I need to check around more.

I think we will have about 2 dozen MINI's there. You may want to print off the 1st posting, make copies to leave on the other local MINI's you see in Peoria.

We are working on the last details and will post the updates ASAP.
