I'm only 15 or so minutes from Greenwich so I may stop by next week.. you'll need to include food though - then everyone will show up.. ..so you may want to find a local (not too expensive ..this is Greenwich after all) place.. haha

there willl be food and drinks every week but this week im not going to go overboard because i want to see how many people show. Then we can all talk and maybe chip in 5 dollars each for the following week we will all talk.

Actually, historically, I have seen where the club meetings are held in a restaurant and that way no-one is stuck with the bill, IMO I'm not looking for anyone to pay for the food, although it's all about the food and we're adults and can pay our own way, right gang?

Agreed with everythis said above. I think though before we start talking about food at meetings lets get this rolling first. Maybe even see if anyone form Westchester wants to join in. I don't think that there is a club down that way. This way maybe we can get a bigger club going.

Then we'll have to call it FWMC (Fairfield - Westchester) ...and how about anyone and everyone can join in - regardless of the locale.. let's raise the bar and excitement for these things.

perfect well this friday we will meet at staples and see how many people join. Regardless who joins it will still be called fcmc just because of were we meet. As friday comes along we will see how this clubs going to work out. If anyone is interested i was thinking of on the top of the front bumper put stickers that say FCMC #1 , FCMC #2 ect. The number will represent the niber you stand on the list in the club. I dont know you tell me your ideas
?

Club Launch

Great idea!

Although I do not currently own a MINI, I am seeking to purchase an excellent condition R53 (2006) S. I have attended MINI events sponsored by Sin City Mini. Las Vegas and am eager to participate in Greenwich area MINI events.
Unfortunately, I will be out of town this Friday. Please LMK the date and time of next meeting. Best of luck.
