Hey everybody, We had such a fun time the last time we got together, and so many people suggested we try to make it a regular thing. So, let's try to meet up again. I'm hoping we can meet up Saturday, April 18th 2015 at 10 A.M.. I was thinking we would just meet up at the Krispy Creme again, unless anyone else has a suggestion. I actually don't know that area very well as I spend most of my time up north, so I'm super open to other recommendations. I figure anywhere between like Federal Way and greater Tacoma would be good, so more members of the PSmini community who often can't make it to meets up north can come out and enjoy their MINIs. I'll make updates and edits as we go, so let's hammer things out. For now the basic plan is Krispy Kreme In Tacoma on April 18, at 10 A.M. Last time we had six people make it, let's see if we can beat that! Happy Motoring. ------------- Pippa-'04 Mini Cooper S in Pure Silver.

I knew I should have jumped in "sooner" and suggested April 11th. Unless we want to meet in San Francisco...we fly out on the morning of the 18th. ------------- 07 MCSa Laser Blue w/ checkboards everywhere Transmission 6 speeds...Gas pedal 1 speed....Full Speed Ahead! |

well, there's still time to change it. I picked the 18th a bit arbitrarily. Does anyone else have preference, should we do the 11th rather than the 18th? ------------- Pippa-'04 Mini Cooper S in Pure Silver.

I couldn't agree more, Kurt. Both regions are just as inconvenient as the other for me, so I don't mind going either direction. It's all just more fun times behind the wheel of my Mini. I set this one up because of the good time we had last month, and the enthusiasm of people who drove in from Olympia and the like. If no one else rushes to do so, maybe I'll set on up for the North end as well for a different date. I'll need more help finding a place that can play host to a gaggle of MINI's though. You'd think that after two years up here I'd know about more places, but I honestly don't. ------------- Pippa-'04 Mini Cooper S in Pure Silver.

Hey I'm glad you guys were able to use my idea last month, hopefully this becomes a regular thing. I just found out I am being medically separated from the Army, tore my meniscus, and they found I have no cartilage left in my knee. I guess I took that chance after serving in the Navy. Anyway I am glad you guys liked they idea, and hopefully I will be able to make it to this one, but I might be in my other halfs Fiat 500 (my R56S is getting some interesting custom work done down at Tork Motor Works in Auburn, I'll update you guys on that when John tells me more), depending on how soon they fly me out of here. ------------- 2011 MCS |

Looks like the PSmini leadership just set a second Mini donut meet up in Mill Creek at 9 a.m., the same day as this event. Hopefully that serves as a nice alternative for people who felt the drive to Tacoma was a little too much. I also hope that having two conflicting events doesn't put a damper on any one meet's attendance. Maybe some poor fool will be daring enough to try to go to both! Whatever gets the group together and having fun though, and donuts are always a plus! ------------- Pippa-'04 Mini Cooper S in Pure Silver.

Really looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow, hope everyone can still make it. If you know anyone not in our little club who wants to come out feel free to bring them along, friends and family are welcome. Even if your Mini can't make it, like RedBarnes was saying. Our rough guest list hopefully including at least 8 people (plus guests)based on the facebook page I made. Feel free to update here if you can't make it after all. See everyone at 10. ------------- Pippa-'04 Mini Cooper S in Pure Silver. Featuring an Alta 2.0 15% reduction Pully and 2% overdrive ATI Super Damper.
