Alex, Mike and I drove up for the day to see Herman's mini. My son Alex is so busy with his music he gets about 5 days off at schools end and a three day weekend just before school starts back in the fall. He may have to day trip to the meet. Steve (CTR)

You have Steve - we met at MME 2006 and Zanzi picked up his car at ST 2002 (where I met Suzy).

I haven't been to a Mini Meet since Charleston in 2002 with my (then) 5 year old daughter, Victoria. My wife was VERY pregnant with our son so we waited too long to book a room. By the time we decided it was safe to go, there were no rooms close to the venue so we camped. A word of advice - NEVER camp in Charleston in July. Vic and I roasted! As miserable as the weather was, we had a blast.

Since 2004, we have been tied up with the AAU Taekwando national tournament on Mini Meet week. If the meet will be at the end of June next year, we have a chance of making it. One more reason to get the Mini back on the road. 10.5 hours from home - wonder if my mechanical skills are up to the challenge. If we make it, my son William will be the navigator this time.

Old men don't fist fight we shoot. Mostly shoot off our traps. And we are fussy old men. Oh how I wish the hobby was filled with young kids. My first car was a 1930 first mini 1960 and my newest mini 1985. Steve (CTR)

Thanks for the update.  I look forward to an official announcement.

Hopefully the meet will fall after June 26th - putting it into the school summer holidays.  This would make it easier for more Canadian families to attend.

Either way, I'm sure it will be a great event!

Tim.

It's a free country.

At least it was a few years ago.

Having been to more mini meets than I care to talk about I can say I could complain about something from each one.  At the end of the day those are the things you remember most.  did your air work in 2001?  do you remember or are you saying to yourself "it must have worked or I would remember it".

move on and enjoy what you have.

I met Chris at St. Michaels last fall when our Sunbeam club held their annual show there.  What a wonderful place!  We are sure looking forward to going back there with the Mini.  Lots of interesting shops in the downtown area, great seafood everywhere and an Irish pub downtown, boat cruises, plenty of small towns to drive to and explore.  Hotel room was very reasonable and nice.   Traffic?  What traffic?  Just small towns.  Thanks guys for offering to host MME-I will be glad to share info from when we were there and help out.  Eric
