All Mitsu Cookout -- August 26, 2007 -- Rogers, MN

[curt_gendron]

I just updated the sign up page. We are up to 81 sign ups!!

The price for the Cookout is $5 again. That includes you, your car, one passenger, and all the food you can eat. It would really help if you prepaid using paypal. My paypal is cgendron@mail.com If you pre-pay it helps speed up the registration process the day of the show. If you don't have paypal, don't sweat it, just pay at the event.

We are less than seven weeks away now!

Hey everyone,

Thanks to those that sent a paypal in the last week or so. I've had a bunch of them. Looks like we have 97 sign ups. The updated list is at:
http://mn3s.org/cookout-list.html

We are still on pace to get around 150 cars there, which is awesome. But don't forget to keep bugging your friends that own Mitsus. Lets try and get as many cars as we can together. Its gonna be fun!

Curt

I'll be there, but I agree about having it in a parking lot isn't that great of an idea. For 5 hours?
But, I do understand about the park issues.
I'll still be there though...
(car permitting)

I was just looking through the sign ups and noticed that the 87 Mitsu Van just signed up. So Pete and anyone else in the "other" category, you better bring your "A" game. ;)

Hey everyone,

The sign-ups keep piling up. We are up to 124 cars on the list. The current list is at:
http://www.mn3s.org/cookout-list.html (http://www.mn3s.org/cookout-list.html)

We are a little over three weeks away now. If you are planning on coming, don't forget to sign up:
http://mn3s.org/lists/?p=subscribe&id=5 (http://mn3s.org/lists/?p=subscribe&id=5)

One thing to start thinking about is your car sign. You can fill out your sign ahead of time. Then when you check in, the day of the show, all I need to give you is your car number. Here is the car sign you can download:

And my example sign can be found here:

Thanks,

My laser won't be up there, but I'm still hoping to go with my Avenger.


It's a Mitsu/Chrysler mix too. :)

There is no official cruise after the Cookout. But a couple of times, someone has put one together. I've got a ton of work to do after the Cookout, so there is no way I can do anything like that.

But I hear that I-94 looks like a Mitsu dealership after the Cookout, as everyone gets on the freeway at the same time. ;)
