No problem... I will be making an online registration form so I can get email addresses from everyone. When there are updates I will send out an email as well as post on all the forums.

I will let everyone know when the online form is up.

Sounds like a promise to me!

If Toastie's in, I'm in! I couldn't see any way to cast a vote on the oceanstatemini site (very nice, by the way!), but I prefer 10/23 since I'm guessing (optimistically) that I'll have a local Halloween party or two to attend on the 30th.

Very happy:smile: to see that there is an interest for this event. Based on the research we have done so far there will be some very freaky and spooky places to visit.

Spread the word and if you would like a Haunted MINIs sig I will be more than happy to send you one.

Chrisnl - if you go to oceanstatemini.com on the top left of the page there is a link to the OSMC forums. Look in "upcoming events". You can vote there or there is a poll up on MINI2.com in the new england region.

Update

We have a guide! His name is Rory Raven, he does a local ghost walk in Providence. He knows quite a bit about the haunted happenings of New England. He is very excited to be involved in such a unique event.
I will need a volunteer MINI driver to be his chariot in the darkness... PM me if your interested.

I would like to know how many people would be interested in t-shirts?

Finally, there will be prizes for costumes (People costumes and MINI costumes) so start thinking of something good. Costumes are optional.

ATTN OVERNIGHTERS!

A few choices for a place to stay:

Days Inn - Cranston
Motel 6 - Warwick
Fairfield Inn - Warwick
Holiday Inn - Warwick
Crowne Plaza $$$ - Warwick

These are just some I saw online that had good rates. You can stay any where in RI, or seekonk and Attleboro Massachusetts and you will be close to everything. So shop around... if you want to know about a particular place just ask.

Out of the list my first choice would be Days Inn. It's across the street from a nice shopping center and it has a Panera Bread in front of it. My second choice would be Motel 6... best price but it is a trucker stop. Both are close to the highway but Motel 6 is practically on it.

We use the two way radios to talk while driving. It's so fun to listen to everyone... I would say if you plan on attending many events you should get some. They will run you 30.00 to 50.00. We will have extras there.
