So if any of you subscribe to MC2, you must now be aware of MMMT, hosted by Redwood Empire Mini Enthusiasts. This is a 3 day International event to be staged on Treasure Island in the San Francisco Bay. This event should be one of the larger Mini-MINI events in the US in 2008, possibly eclipsing even MTTS in Los Angeles.

We have participants registered from throughout United States, Canada, Great Britain, Italy, and Japan with interested possible participants from China, Australia, and New Zealand. Group packages for hotel accommodations have been arranged, but since this is not a hotel based event, feel free to get more affordable rooms using online hotel reservation sites.

Cars can be left on Treasure Island overnight so that you can avoid costly parking at San Francisco Hotels. 24 hour security will be provided. Busses are available on a regular schedule from Treasure Island to downtown San Francisco. There are multiple runs planned throughout the weekend, on-site vendors, classic/rare car display in our Main Pavilion Tent, and a BBQ catered banquet Saturday night with a live Beatles Tribute band playing until 10pm Saturday night on the grassy field with the San Francisco skyline as a back drop. Vendor’s booths will be open until 10pm each night.


You won't want to miss this event! Hotel rooms will get difficult to get as we approach September, so make hotel reservations soon. Our arranged group rates are only available until July 5th... then you will be on your own finding sleeping accommodations. For more information and registration form on our dedicated website or read the latest copy of MC2 magazine.

 

We have some added events that you may be interested in registering for:

Friday night Giants Game - Giants vs Pirates
Saturday Winery Tour - Andretti Winery

Andretti Winery founded in 1996 by Mario Andretti and his longtime friend Joe Antoni (former CEO and chairman of Kmart Corporation), is dedicated to celebrating the Italian lifestyle, complete with the finest wines created anywhere in the world.

I have set up a new web page to make online payments easier using PayPal or to download registration forms and event brochures and run maps as they are developed.

more events will be posted as they are developed

 

Here is good news for those of you that have been dragging your feet!

Because of recent announcements from both Mini Mania and Moss Motors promoting the Magical Mystery Mini Tour, and extensions for the "final number of participants" given to us from our vendors; we have extended the cut-off date for registration of $100 per car until August 20th. Therefore you can continue registering using our dedicated web site until then.

After August 20th, advance registrations will no longer be accepted online but registration will be allowed at the door on the days of the event as space allows. The cost of "at the door" registration will be posted shortly. Only cash payments will be accepted on the day of the event.

Unfortunately the tee shirt order has to be placed today (August 1st) so there will be no more pre-ordering of the event tee shirts. I will have some additional tee shirts available on Treasure Island but they will be sold on a first come, first served basis. Supplies will intentionally be limited since I want them all sold before the event is over. The tee shirt option has been removed from the downloadable registration and PayPal forms.

I look forward to seeing you all having fun on this exciting weekend!

 

I will drive up north from LA for this one.
