RI/New england Meet and Drive!

Hey guys,

I am posting this here to gauge interest before getting the wheels rolling.

As some of you may know i work at a hotel in RI and am currently waiting on my mini to arrive. Well, its slow around here this time of year so i spoke with my manager and the head of the catering department and got them to agree to let me hold a Mini Meet and cruise, i even got them to hook us up with some decent rates if i get enough interest!

so here is the low down, im thinking sometime in the next month or so before it gets to nasty and there are still some nice leaves on the trees. The meeting would b on the front lawn of the Atlantic house in Narragansett RI, literally across the road from the water. Im thinking a sat or a Sunday, the catering has agreed to do a lunch for me wich would be something simple, a grill some burgers/bbq chicken/pulled pork something along those lines, some soda and chips and fruit for a price of 15$ a head (of course u dont have to eat there u can always run to a BK or something if thats more for you).

For any out of staters or people that would just like to get away for a night I was able to get Semi ocean view rooms with 1 king bed for 89$ including lunch for one the day of the meet and a continetal breakfast the morning after your night. All at the Village Inn wich is 2 blocks down the road from the Atlantic house.

again there are no hard dates/times for any of this im just starting here to guage interest! I would love to see a line of Minis cruising by the ocean and through some night fall foliage so please post here if you are interested or have any suggestions/ideas! thanks!

I'd be interested in seeing how things develop. I can't commit until I know what the timeframe might be.
