We are in the midst of organising MiniFest 2011
Stay tuned for more information !!!
MiniFest was on 1 November 2009 at the Hobart Regatta Grounds, and celebrated the 50th birthday of the birth of our beloved Mini!!
We had Craig Watson of The Mini Experience join us, plenty of trophies, birthday cake, temporary tatts for the kids (and big kids!), you name it!
Any Mini, any condition!
A day of all things Mini in Tasmania. And what a day - the forecast was uncertain, the day started with wet roads, leaden skies and mist in the hills. But it cleared up, the rain and wind were mercifully absent, and we ended up getting sunburnt! What's more we had 210 Minis registered, plus a few new MINIs on display, plus some others that snuck in before we were ready - so in all about 220 Minis!!
Yes, the target was 204, so that we would beat the Victorian effort, and we did it!! And what a day it was... Free entry, free trophies, free birthday cake, free souvenir programmes, free tattoos - but you had to pay for the coffee and the food (sorry...).
Here are some photos of the event - you can find all the trophy results here
