Hi all:
We're having our September meeting this Friday (9.19) at Tony Roma's. Meeting starts at 6:30 & we have one of the side meeting rooms booked for our group. Dr.Steve they have a bar for you to try out, the food should be good & they're setup to give us each separate checks.

I'm stepping in for Commander Rob as the new MidCal Coordinator, so if you have any topics you'd like discussed at the meeting please PM me with details so I can add to the agenda. Also, if there's anything you'd like planned/setup for the coming months let me know so we can get a couple ideas on the board. Look forward to seeing all of you there!

Note: Tina, can you bring the MidCal stickers? Thanks!

 

Great. Sandee & I are looking forward to the meeting. I'll be glad to help any way I can to keep the club going. See you Friday. Ken

 

Nick & myself will be at the meeting. Thanks Joe for stepping up. +1 for any help you might be needing to keep the club together. See you on friday!

Thanks to all of you for coming tonight to the meeting. DJ broke his string of botched orders, JIMINNImachine stopped by (always great to hang out with you bruthaman), it was Nick's birthday, celebrated Michael finishing his Masters Degree in Accounting, & all the gang was there. Karen & Susan, it was great having you & welcome to the MidCal Mini family!

To recap the meeting topics:
1. "Project Top Secret" - can't say anything here cuz' it's that classified.

4. C-Dub will be plotting via satellite our next early Saturday morning club run (October). "MidCal run" thread coming soon to our forum, so watch for it.

Bitzie and I would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all of the new MINI friends that we met tonight at our very first MidCal MINIs meeting. You made us and our "new babies" feel quite welcome and right at home. We look forward to future meetings and events and truly enjoyed getting to know other fellow MINI lovers.

 

wow, nice looking turn out
wish I could attend, but those that know me understand that at the moment it is not an option
hope to be able to make a run soon, miss everyone

 

We always miss having you there Chef. Even though you're Bay Area you're still part of the fam. Kikimowse, that's a good lookin' autosignature on your post.

Club pictures: MidCal photo album

I'll/we'll start taking new pics & updating our fun escapades.

 

I have to say...................my house looks awesome.

oh, yeah, Nice pics..........

 

I need to get our next meeting spot booked. Does anyone have a preference on where this shin-dig is going to take place or is it my choice. Careful guys, I'll book Aqua Shi or something if nobody puts their 2 cents in.

 

Fine as long as it's all-you-can-eat and you're paying.

Steve

 

What about BJ's Brew Pub in front of Fashion Fair? Might be hard to get a spot on a Friday night though.

 

Shoot as long as he's paying, I say Ruth's Chris

 

You have to be kidding. You would have to park a mile away if you found a parking place at all. And you think that BJ's is less loud than Casa Corona? I like it there, but I don't see how it would work.

Steve

 

Let's talk to the 1st United International Federated Bank of JIMINNI to get a club loan to pay for current & future expenses. On a serious note though, where do you wanna do this thing? Doesn't matter to me/us at all.

 

I thought BJ's would be good. We might have to find parking, actually at 6pm it might not be too bad. But I don't think they would let us reserve a table or two? Thats my .02

 

Sorry bud, BJ's is wayyyyy too loud. I'm all for going back for margaritas at Casa Corona. What do you guys think?
