From Paul Taylor, new Sales Manager at MINI of Peabody:

Spring is almost here! - Let’s Motor!
We are pleased to announce the date for our annual Spring Rally Event at MINI of Peabody. Registration for our Rally is limited to 100 cars: the event is free, so don’t delay!

SUNDAY April 23 rd will be a day of fun for all MINI enthusiasts, beginning with registration at 9:00 a.m., and a quick get together to admire everyone’s cars, both new and old. Shortly thereafter, we will send off the first cars. The intended format is for a “Poker Run”, always a lot of fun, with prizes awarded at the end- no experience necessary, just a smile and your MINI.

Afterwards, we will all meet back at MINI of Peabody for a barbeque and great fun for all!

Please email Paul Taylor to sign up.


I believe the "poker run" idea is from our favourite head tech Gary, and Keith will be designing the route along some great roads between MoP and Ipswich (yes, you might have driven some of the roads before!) ... Keith & I hope we can get some sections with cars going both ways (down to a stopping point, then back again) for extra entertainment


April 6th: I put a "signed-up" list on my weblog:

Just to avoid confusion, the 23rd is a Sunday. I know because it's the same day as the MS Walk So is this event on Saturday or Sunday?

[PaulT]

Please note, the Rally will be on the 23rd, which is a Sunday, not a Saturday.
Thanks again.

sounds like fun, and Sunday is even better (no kids soccer) so hopefully I can make i t...

[GBMINI]

Sorry Annette - I had to pick between two dates that MoP had got it down to, avoided a pulley party, and didn't know about your walk till tonight.

[NoNo]

That's ok. There are ways to make up for that.

I've put it on my calendar. But how do we sign up? Or do we just show up around 9am, first come first served?

What's a "poker run?"

[holdenontoit]

at various check points you will be given a playing card.When you get to the end point the winning poker hand wins .sounds like a blast , sign me up!(I did fill out the link in the first post)

[bjl]

That sounds pretty fun.

[GBMINI]

Registration - please email Paul Taylor. I forgot to copy that bit from the post on GBMINI.net (sorry). I've updated post#1 now.

"poker run" - the way I understand it is there will be 4 or 5 stopping places on the run; at each you will be given a playing card (and maybe one more when you get back to MoP at the end). Then with your set of random cards you make the best poker hand you can - the winner gets the admiration of everyone present (and who knows, maybe MoP will give them a prize too!)

Hello!
I really looking forward to our first spring MINI event. Most of us here at MoP won't be able to make the MINIs on Top event (because we have to work) so I'm glad we are getting one together here. Spread the news and share the good word - see you on Sunday!!!!
