Hey,

Just wanted to know if there were any Mini owners in Manchester, NH. Would love to get in touch with people near me. Let me know!!

 

There are several hundred of us here in the northeast. I'm guessing 10 or so of them are very close to you. We tend to hang out and converse on the THIS MINI2.com thread. Go on over there and introduce yourself!

Also, don't forget about MINIs On Top, one of the nation's largest annual MINI events. It will be held on June 28, 2008 at Mt. Washington.

Welcome! See you over at MINI2!

Hi NikiMae!

Hi Theo

And MINIsOnTop:

Having grown up in Newton, college in Henniker, and lived for about 10 years all over Nashua, Manchester and everywhere in between, please allow me to offer a howdy (former) neighbors. Today CO is home. But as I sit and type this, my Pats hat is atop my head and I tip it to you girls and boys in nostalgic revelry.

 

Woohoo! I had NO idea there was a Mini event here in NH! That makes me SUPER HAPPY!! I grew up in the Mt Washington valley! I'm so there!!!

 

I can't seem to find anywhere on the minisontop site on how to sign up for it or costs..anyone know? please fill me in

 

NikiMae,

Registration is not yet open, but will be in the very few weeks to come. Check the MINIs On Top (MOT) website, or the MINIs On Top thread on MINI2.

Also, there is a major MINI caravan that leaves from the I-93 Rest Area at about Mile 51, which is about 15 miles north of Concord, NH. The Rest Area (named "Area 51" ) is where two major feeder caravans meet up on the Friday afternoon before Saturday's MOT. The first caravan leaves for Area 51 from Yankee Candle in South Deerfield, MA at 11:00 am on Friday. The second caravan leaves from the Boston area about 11:00 - 12:00. The two caravans and individual MINIs converge on Area 51 no later that 1:30 pm, where they merge into a ~50 MINI caravan on a drive to Gorham, NH and the Town & Country Motor Inn. Friday night events are usually a sunset Moose (Photo) Hunt, evening Trivia Challenge, and general MINI merriment.

If you are sure you will be attending, you may wish to make your reservations at the Town & Country (mention MINIS On Top for our special rate) or other Gorham lodging (Royalty Inn, Top Notch Inn) for Friday and Saturday night right away.

PM me if you have any questions!
