Most excellent D3m0N! I am there! Those two PW/B MCs lead the way once again!

Hope lots of you Eastern Iowa MINI mates can make it out...looking forward to seeing you again, meeting new folk, and talkin' MINIs.

11:30 is good. Ahead of the peak rush but plenty hungry by then.

See ya then!

So, who else can join us? If you're planning to come, please reply in this thread so D3m0N can get a head count.

Hope to see you there!

Now THAT's a good excuse. Suppose the Celts will still be undefeated by then? Should be quite a game! Have fun; we'll catch you next time...

Thus far I know of ayes from D3m0N, Miah34, R56MINIx2, Gil-galadx2, and MariaChickx2. Still a few in the group who haven't indicated one way or the other. Should be a nice sized gathering for pizza and MINI chat.

We'll need to keep an eye on the wx; hope it will not be a factor...

Let's hope for no repeat of last weekends weather. So far it looks like we might be in for it again, hopefully it goes away!

Saturday precip probabilities are still 30% or below depending on your source, so we could still get lucky on this one.

Hi Gang -

Am assuming the that "light wintry mix" PM forecast for tomorrow is not a show-stopper for our Wig and Pen rendezvous?
