Sherry,
Peter wrote on NEMINI (Summer Splash 07 - August 19th
Yes, I know it says somewhere that pre-registration closes today, but I will still take registration forms and payment anytime up to the start of the event, as long as they come to my desk here at MINI of Fairfield County!

Bring 'em in! Fed-Ex 'em, DHL is fine!!!!!!!!! Already got some that way!

That will all make registration on the day of the event easier and quicker - everyone still has to :

1) sign waivers
2) get your event car # card
3) get your goodie bag



There's a version of the reg form on GBMINI, if you can't find it elsewhere ...

And why is the cat pic titled "Ebay..." - are you selling a dead cat, too?

Were you swinging it, and found there wasn't enough room?

…like how to consume mass quantities of bratwurst and become one of the newest words in the Webster English Dictionary: ginormous!

Is Sherry aware of what kind of kitties you harbour?
