[Sun, Oct 28th, 10am - 6pm] MINI/Mini car show in Richmond

Hey everybody! Crown MINI (with hopefully a little hope from River City MINIs) is planning a MINI/Mini car show for October 20 or 27. It will include prizes, giveaways, activities (for adults and kids), catering from Buz and Ned's BBQ, sponsors, a charity (SPCA), a mini autox course, etc. Because Crown is throwing a lot of money behind this, we're looking into which weekend would be better. What do you guys think? Which weekend would be best? How many of you guys would come down for it?

I'm going to talk more about it on Friday with Ashley @ Crown, so I'll be back with more info.

I would suggest Oct 20th and leave Oct 27th open for a rain date.
Just my 2 cents.

Hmmm.... If the dates work out with some other things on my calendar, I'd LOVE to lead a group up from the Raleigh area for this...

I could be a go for this - if it's on the 27th.

I'll be in B'ham, AL the previous weekend.

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of info lately. I wasn't able to meet Ashley as planned on Friday, but she's started a thread over on our site with more details: http://www.rivercityminis.org/forum/...pic.php?t=1103

I'm not sure if the date is set in stone yet, though. I'm going to try to talk to her more about it this week.
