Cars&Coffee&Quizno's

I know it's a looong ways for you to go .. but sometimes we just need a drive, right? And the HR MINI'ers have been so supportive, I wanted to be sure and include you even if the drive is unrealistic (tho remember, I have driven *there* "just" for coffee before!)

Part I:
Cars and Coffee at Brier Creek Shopping Center, Raleigh, Saturday, March 5th starting at 9am.
There is always a decent display of exotic cars, so no matter what you drive, feel welcome to come out and admire the show; kids love it too, though if you have a 15 year old, be prepared, suddenly the family Toyota as a hand-me-down will lose it's appeal!
The MINI Coopers historically don't have a large turnout, but the Honda S2000's have.
Drew and I have a bet on which club will represent best for March's Cars&Coffee, so I'm countin' on you, MINI COOPERS!
Drew would like to meet some of the club members who have been so supportive of us, even though he was not an official member of the club in the past.

Part II:
The Thank You.
Quizno's for a Dime.
4531 New Bern Avenue, Raleigh.
Inviting everyone who has encouraged, supported, and prayed for Drew over the past three months - friends, family, neighbors, co-workers, church supporters, car club members, even those we've never met - to celebrate Drew's recovery with a Quizno's lunch combo for a dime.
Drew will be there from 11:30am -1:30pm and would like to personally meet and thank you.
We have purchased - with a contribution from the managers at the New Bern Avenue Quiznos, Prerna and Ketan Desai - coupons for a lunch combo valid on Saturday, March 5th between the hours of 11:30am - 1:30pm at the New Bern location.
(Find one of us to secure a coupon to avoid interfering with their general public lunch patrons; coupon maximum two per car / family, please)

Join us! We look forward to seeing you at one or both events! I'm even thinking maybe the S2000s and the MINIs can make nice with each other for a little while and caravan from Brier Creek to Quizno's/New Bern together .. ???

In gratitude,

Susan

Use 8651 Brier Creek Parkway, Raleigh, 27617 .. it's a large shopping center and it's hard to know "exactly" where everyone will park, but that puts one in the correct side of the shopping center.

Hope you can make it .. Quizno's too .. I'm working on some "competitions" for Quiznos including a prize for who came the furthest so keep track of the miles!  101 

(I'll post an update at the first of the week with the competition ideas .. off to Helenblitz in the AM!)

My vote would be our usual starting point for MOTD:  Hardees at Holland Road in Suffolk.

UPDATE / REMINDER:

Hi All

Reminder about event this weekend and a note that there will be PRIZES at Quizno's ..
 
 - One for whoever travels the furthest to get to Quizno's (keep track, you guys stand a good chance!)
 - One for who can kick Drew's old neck brace the farthest (1pm)
 - And one for whoever has the most creative use of dimes (a common theme in my emails, random dimes showing up  that I took as encouraging signs)

Cars&Coffee&Quizno's

Cars and Coffee at Brier Creek Shopping Center, Raleigh, Saturday March, 5th

After Cars and Coffee from 11:30am - 1:30pm, please Drew and my family for a "Thank You" celebration we call Quizno's for a Dime.
Join us for lunch for a dime at Quizno's on 4531 New Bern Ave. Raleigh

We are inviting everyone who has encouraged, supported, and prayed for for us over the past three months - friends, family, neighbors, co-workers, church supporters, car club members, even those we've never met - to celebrate.

Pick up a coupon for a lunch combo at Quizno's valid only March 5th 11:30am - 1:30pm at the New Bern Avenue location.
(Find me, I won't be hard to miss - look for pink cowgirl hat - you knew it would be pink  101 to secure a coupon to avoid interfering with their general public lunch patrons; coupon maximum two per car / family, please)

Hope to see you there!

Susan & Drew

The Cars & Coffee event starts at 9am.

If we leave the Holland Rd, Suffolk, Hardees location between 530-600am, we should arrive at the event between 9-930am.

Soooo....

Which departure time works best for the caravan:

530am
600am
630am

Wheels up at 6 am will work for me since it'll take about 45 min to 1 hr from where I live to the Hardee's location.  Means getting up at O dark thirty but what the heck, good cause.....
