Sounds good... Where is the Hosting restaurant and when were you guys thinking of having the party?

PS - Really enjoyed the Autocross at this years OctCooperfest!!

 

It will most likely be on a Sunday afternoon in early December. Sundays are the only days I have off from work to help host it.

I will be posting the menu and better specifics on the club website once I get it all typed up but, for now, here goes.
The date is Sunday, December 12th, 2004 at 3PM. The party will be at the "Elephant and Castle" pub in on Route 22W in Springfield, NJ. We have a fixed price menu but it will be a "pay as you go" event. RSVPs are to go directly to the restaurant. You MUST mention the MINI club in order to be counted for the event. I have reserved a room that will hold up to 25 people however, we have the option to upgrade to a bigger room if the group gets larger than that. Also, we will have our own MINI parking. Rich and I are working out "holiday" stuff as well.

Many thanks to Rich and Debbie Franks for hosting this party! Had a great time, good food and great company!

Had a chance to meet DreamingTwig, heyduard, paulgraz, nancygraz and nicolegraz. It was a pleasure!

Twig, you slipped out the way you came in, through the back door! Didn't get a chance to say "bye".

Some of the usual suspects, me (of course), Jerseygirl, IanF, oilman930, MiniMight and his wife, several couples who owned classic Minis. Can't even remember everyone's names! Had a fabulous time, everyone went home with goodies for their MINI!

Happy Holidays!

 

Michelle,
Thanks for the praise. Rich and I are happy that you, and hopefully everyone else, had a good time.

Happy Holidays to all!
