MINI5280 Membership benefits

Besides meeting great people around town who share the same attitude about driving a MINI, I am just wondering what are/should be the benefits of joining MINI5280 Club... "Membership has its privileges"
So guys, fire away with your answers... Nothing is too outrages...

1st one

Let me be the first one to start the list...(since I started the thread)

Frequent club events(car shows, BBQs, Cafe and Car, and best of all, a trip to the twisties), it's like a weekly event during summer months.

Always get great ideas from others about detailing, mods, and maintenance.

Maybe a membership discount with online vendors and/or the MINI dealership - on certain items/services.

Writing newsletter articles?
I would really say the opportunity to motor with fellow enthusiasts on the back roads of Colorado.

It goes without saying that

a significant member benefit is

Ralph Schomp MINI

and Shelley, her MA's, and the entire staff.

So I now know why Michael asked this question.
We did not have his email address correct and he never got any of my witty and frequent emails, club fun announcements or the award winning MINI5280 newsletter.
So don't be like Michael - if you are not getting the newsletter or other emails from info@mini5280.org and you feel your membership is in good standing, let us know! If you want to know when your dues are, well due, send me an email at info@mini5280.org and if you would like me to never send you another email again let me know that too.
With over 100 active members, my psychic connection with each of you is somewhat diluted so I need you to let me know if there is something not quite right with your MINI world. BTW, the October newsletter comes out tonight so look for it and be impressed!
Chuck

Yes, very good articles, I was delinquent again, next time.

At least the pictures were good. That was a lot of swag to poke into a MINI, surprised two people could ride up to Ft. Collins.

Chuck, Thanks for an entertaining newsletter, well done.

Great Job

Maybe we should post a link for the newsletter from time to time so that those non members will be able to get a glimpse of what they are missing....
Once again, great job all around....

We do have links to past newsletters, appropriately delayed, on the club site at www.mini5280.org take a look. I think July is up now.

If you ever need help,sugestions,or ideas. There is always someone to ask. You can get problems fixed or get a job done faster. Being a member means you are not alone.

My crew at work just told me yesterday when i toke my pictures from the yala yala to show them. That my being a member they live the fun through me. Baby and i take a lot of teasing but in truth they like hearing about all of our adventures. Esp the ones that have suped up Japenise cars. They get together but only compete with each other. They like to see that a large group can get together and enjoy the diferances with each others cars. So you never know what your other friends and family are enjoying from your membership.
