Just throwing this out there. My old VW club back in Michigan does a monthly GTG at the local Krispy Kreme, usually the first Sunday of the month. Just gauging interest right now, as there doesn't seem to be a lot of things happening in the MINI community, this may be a way for people to meet and talk about our shared passion over coffee and donuts. I am recommending the Krispy Kreme in Tacoma; due to it being pretty close to I-5 and having easy access, but if there is one in a more central location that'd be cool.
I know this Sunday would be a little short notice, but would there be any interest in starting something like this? maybe in February, or maybe in the next couple weekends?

Donuts? Did someone say donuts? I am always interested in donuts! Unless it is those little spare tires....then I rely on my patch kit and pump and am not interested...

I'll do a meetup at Krispies. I would love to do runs but most of the ones here are really far for me. Krispy kremes is just in my backyard so i'm for sure down.

everyone call out your available times and we'll get one started. put down likes so i can gauge interests for the drive and i will think of something. So far these are my available dates 2-12 2-13 2-18 2-19 2-24 2-25 3-2 3-3 3-8 3-9 etc etc. I have a 4 on 2 days off schedule FYI. My interests are micro breweries, golf: primarily golf range (to relieve that stress), Krispie kremes, and really anything that makes tacoma.. tacoma. I would like to get a south side following going; i do see a lot of minis on the road down here. I did get my first wave today in about 2 months. -_- So hope to motor with you guys soon. Let's make this happen.

I'm down! I know of a brew pub in Tacoma. Wingman brewery. Very cool place and you drink in the brew area.
I'm a gig harbor guy and love 7seas or the new Zog's on fox island is cool too. |

Longtime club member and drive organizer here who has not heard of the term "GTG"- can you parse that out for me? Of course the operative word here is "donuts", but it would be good to know what GTG stands for as well.

I happen to attend church on Sundays when I'm not working, but I'd be interested in a Saturday morning donut gathering. How about March 14th?

Holy Hapa Haole! Did Brenda really say she was going to come to an event? I'm sure the last one was for margaritas bigger than our heads in Goldendale a year and a half ago.
I'll be there!

Is this going to be a drive either starting or ending at Krispy Kreme or a gathering at Krispy Kreme to share time and calories with like-minded, car-crazy MINI people?
When it said get together I was assuming it was everyone show up and have a donut...
