The new guy finally brought his mini to town

Ok, So I finally brought the mini up from Portland to Seattle a couple weeks ago. It's so much fun having it to drive again (after almost a year in the garage).

Looking to do two things:
1. Join the group officially. I didn't see an FAQ for who to send cash to, etc, so if someone can point me to it, I would appreciate it.

2. What time is the next event. I would love to attend with my mini.

thanks,

Tony.

In answer to #2, see EVENTS. Greenwood Car Show this weekend and even if you are not yet registered, bring your Mini and enter there. Maybe we can find a way to sneak you in with the rest of the Minis!

In answer to #1, see me at the car show or pm me.

In order to be guaranteed a parking spot with SAMOA you needed to register by June 15th. If you register before the day of the show there is a chance that we can hold a spot for you, but you'll have to let us know. If you register on the day of the show it will cost $5 more, it's possible that you won't get in and it could take so long to get through registration that you won't be able to park near the other Minis.

My registration went in after the 15th, if you could hold a spot for me that would be great. Thanks much.

Tony, Register..Schmedgister
While we are are all dying to see your car you might want to just park nearby and take in the show. Stop by and say hi, sign up with SAMOA with Ed, go to his house after. Simple eh? Don

We probally ought to leave an extra foot of room between each Mini when we first arrive (they're at least that much narrower than most of the other cars that will be in the show). Then all we have to do is move a few of them closer to make room for a late-arriving Mini.

Nice idea, Ed, but I've tried it and it doesn't work.
