What happened to the MINI club list???

I was waiting for the list of the MINI clubs around the Nation. Did someone not complete it. I thought that I saw someone starting that and I emailed them... they said no repsonse from people. We need to get this list going. If you have a MINI club, please email to this special email that I set up, well, not really that specail, but it will be deleted after a while... enough rambling...
list@goldcountrymini.com

I dont mind doing the leg work on this, but of course I will need some folks to respond. Please include:
club name
website
email/mailing address

Ok, lets get it together folks... Then maybe we can start having some national events eh??? I look forward to your emails. I will post the list online somewhere for those to download it... Once its complete of course!!!

We have national events... MINI Vacation in Vegas and MINIs on the Dragon for starters. Several others, like MINIs on Top are large enough to be considered national in scale...

Good point. I thought it would be nice to have a list of contacts for all the MINI clubs in the US... I figure that would be a great tool!!!

If desired, I can add a page to my FindamotoringBuddy.com site to list clubs.
I can make it so people can add to it without my intervention. If no one is already compiling this, I can offer it.

Rather than have them come to you, you can also do a little data mining out on the web. Search engines are great. Try a search for "Mini Club listing" or for "Mini Cooper". Once you find a site that has a few listed (such as on http://www.oregonminisociety.com or http://motoringfile.com/links/) search thru each of the listed sites for more info. Keep digging and keep track of them as you find them in an excel spreadsheet attaching contact information for each. You'd be surprised how many clubs you can find in a short amount of time. Email the contacts to tell them what you're up to and see if they have any additional you may have missed.

Another trick is to enter in a known club name and search to see how many other sites have reference to it. For example take "Mini Owners of the Rockies" and type it into Yahoo/Google. Note that there's many many site who link to MOTR. Some of them are listings of clubs that might lead you to other clubs not found. It keeps going and going. Enjoy!

Thanks for the info. I have already compiled a list of the main clubs... Just searching for any others that I have missed... Instead of listing them all, figured I could just sort through emails!
