Hi everyone. I wanted to let everyone know there are other things going on this month too. The whole month we are doing a test drive event to raise money for the Hendrick Marrow Foundation. Every mile you drive, Hendrick MINI will donate a dollar to this great cause.

Saturday, October 13, 2007- Pumpkin painting contest. We will have several pumpkins and supplies. Just come and have a good time. Feel free to bring you own materials too. Hendrick MINI will judge the pumpkins and there are several prizes available, a detail or tinting for your MINI, just to name a couple. Come on by and make this event a success.

PM me if you have any questions. Winners and prizes posted on Motor-Tober Site

Yep, that's Ann's new baby. Unfortunately, it was wounded in the Providence Road traffic wars the 3rd day Ann was driving it home from work. :-( Needs a new hood.

Thanks to all who came to the training session. As you can see this is something that could save a life in the long run. For those of you who didn't make it please try to be at Hendrick between 9-9:15AM to get you up to speed. Food will be available all during the Marrow Drive and we will have one of our members be a runner to go pick up hot food from Zaxby"s. Thanks again as always our club members do come through. Luther Shields, President m2c2
