Here are the details:

Don your spookiest costume and deck out your MINI for an evening of fun, food and prizes!

Join us for a “Party with the Markels” Halloween event beginning at 5:00 p.m. Sunday, October 28th at the Markel Ultimate Auto Campus.
From 5:00 until 7:00 p.m., we’ll host a family-friendly party complete with games, prizes and, of course, trick-or-treating. All treats will be given out by the MINI’s themselves!

At 7:00 p.m., the lights dim and a mysterious fog rolls in as we break out the D.J., food and drinks for our adult-themed party. Put on your scariest face and do your best to impress our panel of “celebrity” superhero judges. Prizes will be awarded for the best costume and for best-dressed car — so be sure to deck out your MINI in all its Halloween splendor. The party ends at 10:00 p.m., so come down early and join the fun at our “Party with the Markels” Halloween event on October 28th!

So who all is going to this? I'll be there. I have no clue what I'm dressing myself up as, as well as the MINI.

I had great ideas for my costume and the MINI's, but neither worked out like I had hoped - so for now I have no idea.

As is my tradition....Mine will be made tomorrow as I got the final idea today. So, shopping in the morning for stuff to make the costume and then put it together on Sunday before going to the dealer. See you all Sunday.
Does Westroads have a trick or treat night? It would be kind of neat to set the cars in the parking lot near one of the entrances. We will see on Sunday.

Unfortunatly I cant make it. As I type I am leaving the Holiday Inn in Grand Island and am on my way to the airport. I am leaving for DC. I had training this last weekend and figured when it got over I would have time to get back to Omaha and this this. But turns out the big wigs want me and a few others to fly to DC and lobby senators and congressmen till tuesday. So I hope everyons has fun.

I just wanted to thank everyone for coming out and I was totally impressed with all of the costumes for the MINI's themselves. Sherri, you did an awesome sewing job.

Jim I checked out homestarrunner site and that is an awesome site, lots of fun games too. When it's slow around here I'll know where to surf now. LOL!

Thanks again from the whole MINI of Omaha staff and myself.

Welcome Steve - I'm pretty sure a good time was had by all that attended, and we look forward to more events at MINI of Omaha.
