The PDX MINI club is starting to gather steam. Time to decide on a name!

I'll toss out a few possibilities, but please suggest more (better) ones. We'll just let group consensus decide on the winner. As the founding members, we get to have some fun putting this all together. I can't wait to look back at this time a year or so from now when we have many members. How cool.

Ok, my (so so) name ideas:

PDX MINIACS
Mt. Hood MINI Club
Willamette Valley MINI Owners
Super Coopers
MINI Club of Portland
Oregon MINI Owners Association

Ok, it's too early to be creative. I'll let y'all think of some better ones.

Hey Ryan & all,

Those are some good ideas!

I think it should be more centralized than Oregon (I want a Portland name!)That way if this ever got really big we could be part of Oregon MINI but still have our own unique ('cause we were first!) identity. It would be nice to get Rasmussen involved for some sponsorship if they were ineterested but let's not hold our breath. It's not like they need much advertising since the cars are literally flying off the lots.

- PDX MINIACS
- MINI Club of Portland
- PDX Super Coopers
- Mt. Hood MINI Club(then we could use the image of Hood in T-Shirts, stickers, etc.)
- PDX Cooper Club

I say those of you going for the inauagural ride talk about this during lunch/dinner/drinks. You can either come up with a list of names for the rest of us to vote on or decide one for us all.

Just my .02

Nate

I've got the final tally at home, but the winner was PDX MINI COOPER CLUB by a landslide.

What's really funny, is that I ended up posting the group pictures on a new cardomain site. Cardomain only allows for a small number of characters for the username, and no spaces. So whaddya know, but it became PDX_MINI!! HA! It's only temporary, until we get the club name hosted on it's own site (www.pdxminicooperclub.com or something). When that happens, you can have the cardomain site.
