Location: Large Riverside Shelter at Pere Marquette State Park in Grafton,
Il

Located just north of Grafton,Il on the Great River Road

The STL MINI Club will provide a pulled-pork BBQ meal with coleslaw, potato
salad and baked beans. The Club will also provide soft drinks and water.
Lunch will be served about 1:00pm. Feel free to bring a covered dish and/or
dessert if you desire.

Come on out and enjoy the day, show off your Cooper and check out other
member's ride. Bring some games and have an afternoon of fun with your
family and friends.

We will need an RSVP by Sept 30th with an exact number of adults and children so we can
have enough food for all. You may respond to the forum thread but I would
also like an e-mail to me at dan@stlmini.com

 

Brian - Phyllis and I will be there. Keep us posted. We can help with the details.

It was a lot of run last year, nice drive up the river road and a great place to have a picnic. We are looking forward to it.
Cheers,

Hello Everyone, Hope you have not forgotten about the Club Picnic at Pere Marquette State Park on 5Oct08. I need to start getting a head count for number of adults and children for the meal planning. Menu will be posted soon. Please post your head count here or to dan@stlmini.com Thanks, Dan

 

Won't be able to make this. Missy and I will be on the road, driving back from Petit Le Mans, getting those JCW break-in miles done.

 

Amber and I will be in the same area at the same time, checking out some civil war battlefields and going through the Smokey Mountains on the way back. Enjoy Petit, what a way to break in your car! I'm going to the ALMS race at Road America next year for sure, and am talking to the Badger Bimmer track person about their RA DE date next year. Would you be interested in going with 3-4 of us up there for a DE? Send me an e-mail so I can keep you in the loop (that goes for anyone else as well)!

Go Highcroft!

We're going to Road America twice next year (and wee just there last month), in July for the historics and in August for ALMS/Speed WC.

Can't wait to see Rahal-Letterman debut the pair of M3 GTRs at Sebring 09. Those cars will be monsters.

I might be interested in a RA DE, depending on budget.

 

I will be there with the wife (Angela) and child (Corbin).

 

My girlfriend and I plan on being there. We will be late because I have an Autocross in the morning.

 

I'm getting a lot of RSVP's for the picnic. Just a reminder to let me know if attending so we can plan for the food ordering. Thanks, Dan

 

I have emailed, but there will be 2 of us (adults) at the picnic. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

 

We'll be there!

(2 adults, one kid, and one dog )

 

Hello, as of today we have a headcount of 72 people for the picnic. Will add acouple to the headcount for any last minute deciders. See you on Sunday 5 Oct. Dan

 

Great day

Dan, thanks for putting on another great club picnic...........the food was great, the weather was great, and it was great to meet so many new members!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope eveyone can make the Fally Rallye on November 1st.

 

Yes, thanks to Dan/BigFun and everyone else that helped with the event. We really appreciate the time and effort you put in to make these events happen.

As Doug/Zinful says, it was neat to meet new members, including Chriv and TopLabDog who turned out to be our neighbors! (And TopLabDog and I work at the same place. )

Thanks for the ride in your classic, Doug!

 

I didn't take many pictures, but here a re a couple ...

 

Good job with the beautiful day! Thanks too for the name tags. They are great for us newbies who are trying to figure everyone out. We will unfortunately miss the Fall Rally, but hope to see everyone soon.

 

 

Looks like a nice picnic! Those tables............. hmm, I wonder how those got there............
