Great job everyone! Brad and I will be sure to put together a good private car show for us too, with some cool prizes! Can't wait!

Does your MINI have to be entered in the Car Show to be in the "private" car show? I wasn't sure if we could attend but now we can:smile:

It would simply for the fact that there's no way to get your car into the show area without being registered. You might want to give Rick Siefert a call and see if they can squeeze one more MINI in, we would love to have you! His info is on the registration form above. Either way, we hope to see you there!

There are room for more entries in the Euro Auro Show...and I am afraid that your car has to be entered into the show to be eligible for our MINI car show...it's a matter of convenience since all the cars will be sitting next to each other.

Sign up and join us!

You can always coordinate a happy hour!
That way we all revolve around YOUR schedule.

I had a great time at the auto show today :smile: Thanks to all those who organized the event!

Congrats to all the pageant winners! My daughter was disappointed that Blue Meanie didn't win anything so she made me a little ribbon when we got home

I really enjoyed chatting with everyone and actually having a lot of time to check out all the cars.

Looking forward to next year's show!

Everyone,
The 2005 European Auto Show was a huge success! We had 18 or so MINIs in the show and a great time was had by all. Congrats to all the winners from the day! A special thanks goes out to our sponsors and helpers, who made the day a success!

MINI of St. Louis/Tony Jones: MINI of STL donated several great prizes for our pageant, thanks Tony!

Viking Car Care and Mothers Wax: Both Viking and Mothers donated a large amount of prizes for the pageant!

Brad and Julie Bloomquist: Brad and Julie helped with getting prizes, organizing the event, and making the super-cool ribbons I almost forgot to hand out!

Siouxsie (sp) Lawson: She helped us put up the tent, count the votes, and keep an eye on things. Thanks!

Our goal for next year will be to get 20 or more entries, which will get us two show award spots. Look for photos on stlmini.com from the event soon.

Thanks to everyone for their participation! We all had fun and raised a lot of money for charity! Motor on…

Aaron

It was great meeting all of you! Thanks for your hospitality
and the added surprises. :smile: I am now committed to keep
the bling polished at all times.

Next time, remind me to bring a jacket. I almost caught
a chill.

Thanks to all again.

Help!

Okay, gang. I have zero pictures of this event. Doug has zero pictures of this event. Geez I need a digital camera and I think Doug was having just too much fun looking at all the cars and talking to people.

So, surely, someone in our 18-car group had their camera and took pictures! If so, please contact me so I can get them from you and put them up on the website!

Thanks!

Thanks for everyone who sent me pictures! I think we have a pretty good album now and I've got it up on the site.

Greetings!

I had a great time this year at the Show. Lots more Minis this year than last year, excellent job!

Let me know when you guys are planning a drive... I have a few fellow Bimmerphiles that are more than willing to tag along with a club that actually enjoys open road driving.

highway 94, 109, whatever...we are DOWN.

Let's Motor Hard.

Brent
