Time: Meet at 7pm and leave at 7:30pm. Return to Mick's afterwards for desserts and warm beverages. Feel free to bring a dessert of your choice.

Where: Jan and Mick Keenoy's Home

Optional: The MINI Club would like to host a US Marine Corps "Toys
For Tot's" Drive. If you care to donate a new unwrapped toy,
please bring it that night and the club will deliver them to the
charity.

Would be very cool if we filled up a couple MINI's worth of toys! Fairly minimal effort that can have a huge impact on a kids life. Hope you consider participating

 

We'll be there with a toy or 2 For those who have never attended, this is a great event. Mick & Jan are wonderful hosts & the rallye is always a lot of fun.

 

Becky and I will be there. Party On, Dan

 

Judy and I will be there! Missed last year and Croker was upset!

 

Just bought the toys, now can't wait for the event, it is always a lot of fun.

 

Maybe a little snow will make the lights shine pretty.

 

A little snow won't stop the MINIs, the Miatas are a different story....

 

We plan on being there.

 

With new tires, we will be there even if we do have snow! Going toy shopping Friday. Terrie & Don

 

Hey everyone. Phyllis and I will be there. Haven't missed one yet. Smoke loves to ralley, even in the cold. Bill

Thanks to Mick and Jan for another great rallye. Thankfully, the hail held off until we got home!

 

Mick and Jan thank you for opening up your home to us. It was a lot of fun even with the rain!

 

Thanks Mick & Jan for a great night Gimli must have overdone it as his starter shot craps this morning

Heres the article, mentions us by name
