The PittStop MINI Club is happy to announce our April event. We are planning lunch and a drive through Amish country in Lawrence and Mercer counties; including a drive through a covered bridge and at least one stop at an Amish farm that sells flats of flowers and hanging baskets. Other stops include Amish farms that specialize in quilts, baskets and crafts.

We will all meet in the parking lot of Hoss’s Steak & Sea House Family Restaurant in Grove City. The agenda is as follows:

12:30 Meet at Hoss’s. To get there take Route 79 to the Grove City exit and go about ¼ west of the Grove City Outlet Mall on Rt. 208. The address is 1948 Leesburg-Grove City Road. Arrive at 12:30, check out each other’s cars, renew acquaintances and make new friends.

1 PM-2:30 Brief meeting, door prize drawing and lunch. Lunch includes a Sandwich, Soup & Salad Bar and soft drinks.

2:30-? A pleasant and scenic drive via a covered bridge through Volant, New Wilmington and Amish Farm area. After the first portion of the drive, you are welcome to stay with the club or proceed at your own pace to various Amish farms, each featuring their own specialty. A map showing them will be provided if you want to skip one or linger and catch up later.

As of this posting we have 59 member cars! We are expecting a very good turnout for this event, so it is important that you RSVP NO LATER THAN APRIL 18th. The cost of this event is only $10 per-person for club members or $11 per-person for non-members (this covers your lunch buffet). Member’s guests riding in the same MINI pay member price.

After April 18th, the cost will be $11 each for members, $12 each for non-members. We ask for your cooperation in replying as EARLY as possible so that we can be sure the restaurant will be prepared to comfortably accommodate us all.

To sign up, please send an email to ksero@pittstopmini.org!

We are really looking forward to this fun event, and it just won’t be the same without you! Our goal is to have an impressive parade of 50 or more MINI’s.

Lot's going on now that spring is coming! Sorry you can't make it. Well, maybe you guys can pencil in Saturday, June 21st instead. We have an event coming up in Bedford PA (a little closer to you and Eastern PA). They are having a "Downtown Beach Party" and the Pittstop MINI Club has been invited to drive in and display our cars on main street. They have a band that will play Beach Boys and Jimmy Buffet music on Saturday and on Sunday they will host a civil war re-enactment. It should be great fun! If you are interested in more details please contact me!

Darn - this one sounds very cool - we won't be able to make that one either - daughter is graduating from HS and family will be here from California....but I'd still like details as others might want to go..

Thanks

Unfortunently I cannot attend the April 26th meet in Pittsburgh. I too will be at the Cooter's Run outside of DC that day. I will be moving to the western edge of Hopewell Twsp. in early June though and would look forward to more information on the June 21st gathering. Will be joining PittsstopMini.org at that time too.

Hope your event goes well! If you guys can make it we would love to have you at "The Italian Job Movie Rally" in Alexandria, VA on Saturday, May 31st!!
