Nathan here!
Checkered Flag will be hosting it's 2nd Cars and Coffee Event on August 14th from 8am to 11am. Just like last time we will have coffee and danishes/bagels. We are anticipating a larger event this time due to less schedule conflicts. I hope to see all of you there. Please post any comments or suggestions that I may pass along to hopefully make this event AWESOME for everyone!
AUGUST 14th 8am-11am Old Bloom's Furniture Parking lot. Corner of Witchduck Road, and Virginia Beach Blvd.

Obviously at the time of this event I will no longer be working at CF, but I am planning on still going to the event... Is there going to be a plan for another caravan of cars? I thought that was really cool for the last event and I would enjoy participating in the arrival this time?

I'm sure we'll still convoy in. It makes us feel like the cool kids anyway. Not that driving a MINI doesn't, it just makes us cooler.
I may not make it since I have work.

Nathan, I'm not sure who is going to be running the event this time but maybe you could pass on some info. Instead of having a 20%,25% off coupon for accessories why not bring items and give the discount at the event. I would be more apt to spend $$ if the selection was larger and the discount was the same day. Here is a list of idea items that personaly I would pick up if they were right there:
Rubish bag Valve stem caps (all 4 styles) Checkered Flag tote Umbrella Sunshade Grill Badge Holder Interior mirror covers(all 3 styles) Seat Belt holder
Just an idea? Christina

I think we can all meetup in the same Sears parking lot around 10:30. Intersection of I264 and Witchduck. Then leave at 11am as a group to arrive together.

Kathy, are you talking about meeting before the event of after wards? You mentioned meeting up at 10:30, which would be close to the end of the event. Just confused?

Christina, I would be glad to pass along the message in regards to the special pricing... I don't know how well it will take, but it's worth a shot!

I think 0730 at the sears parking lot would work well. We looked pretty good last time when we pulled into the parking lot! I should be able to attend this one.

Probably hit Dumar's again. That seemed to work well.

Is this still on? I haven't seen any posts of late ... not sure what my plans are for the weekend, but it's one I'm not working (that makes 2 in a row, amazingly enough, tho the last one I had a little bitta MINI business to tend to in Atlanta  ) ... let me know if this is still on the books *and* especially if there is anything (drive?) planned for after since that might be more realistic time-wise for me .. Also, if anyone is still checking this from Checkered Flag .. water, or an alternate to coffee would have been a great addition since some of us would incur speeding tickets in our MINIs if we combined driving with caffeine in the AM
