We have the banner in ARkansas right now. We had our event this past weekend and I'll be getting the banner to Missouri as soon as we can meet up.

MINIxB, are we still going to meet to pass the banner on? I have to work this Saturday. What about meeting up this coming Sunday?

I could try to meet this sunday. Where were you wanting to meet up at? I could probably meet you in Springfield, MO.

Can we meet up next weekend? Saturday or Sunday works good for me. I'm really busy this weekend. I've got a bunch of things going on.

How about Bass Pro? I have to figure out how long it will take me to get there. I've only been there once, years ago. Probably around lunch time.?

I believe that MiniXB will be bringing this to our December event for all of us to sign. As for the pass off, how about someone in St Louis?

If there is any way you can get the banner to PA/NJ for December 30th, that would be awesome. Just got around to reading the article in MC2 mag about this and please check out this thread on NEMINI.org. My husband was diagnosed with lymphoma last March and underwent chemo and radiation and was declared in remission "officially" just 2 weeks ago. Baron is a nut and is doing the Baron in the boot challenge in my hubby's honor on December 30th to raise money for the American Cancer Association. If it's possible, it would be awesome to have the banner at Morristown MINI for his attempt and to have all those who donated sign it.

Follow the link below for the thread on NEMINI.

If there is anything we can do, it would be awesome...or, when it gets back this way, we can possibly have a banner signing party. Maybe even do it in the same time as Baron giving the check to the Cancer Society.

Who is the best person to contact regarding getting my hands on it?

The banner is still in KC. I wasn't able to make it to the December meeting (I was sick) so it's getting signed this sunday. I think it's going to Michigan(?) next.

Great!! Hopefully, it will be able to get to AMVIV. I think some NorCal MINI's were looking for it. Ultimately, I would like it to find it's way back to the Dragon in May.

Come on West Coast!!! I'd love the opportunity to sign it having been diagnosed with cancer and gone through treatment in 2007. What a great thing to do. Keep it up everyone!

If it's going to Michigan, 'SotaMINIs would love to have it on its way out west!
