Mini of Tinley Park, Illinois is having their Grand Opening/Motortober party on October 22, 2011. From what I was told there will be food, drinks, and giveaways. They will also have an off-road area set up so you can test the Countryman's abilities off pavement. In addition, they also should have an area with cones set-up so you can zig-zag through the cones.
The sales team and staff will be in their halloween costumes as well.
I also heard a rumor that they will be offering incentives towards automobile purchases on the day of the event.

Just wanted to pass this along to NAM members who may be interested.
If you have any questions you can call them at 708 468-0000.
Location: 8301 W 159th Street, Tinley Park IL
Time: 9AM -6PM

BTW I am not affiliated with them, just an enthusiastic customer.

 

I am planning on going to this mid-afternoon. Thankfully this dealership is located closer to my work and home than the other handful of dealerships in the Chicago area, mostly in the west and norhern parts.
