The Vendor Area...


The Vendor Area at MINIs on the Dragon...this is a thin slice and there are tents left and right...we are overlooking the hill down to the softball field from just behind the Adventure Center. That is Dan Zipkin http://grassrootsgarage.com/ , one of the best MINI mechanics around working on the blue MINI in the center.
If you look in the distance you can see the Drive In Movie setup for the showing of "Cars" which by the way raised over $2000.00 for a local charity Camp Carefree!! Woohoo! http://www.campcarefree.org/ This camp is very close to my house in Eden. I have to take a moment to say that many people contributed to raising this money. First...Mark Vogler, the founder of the Tar Heel MINI Club. http://www.tarheelminis.org/ He is the man as I know first hand that he worked very hard for many hours to pull this event off. Thanks to his cool daughters too...they worked hard!! Many club members helped...including my wife Julie who sold a ton of raffle tickets! She can do it!
I should mention Ann and her car Madge who worked hard to move the Drive In T-shirts too...but she won the raffle Supercharger pulley at the end of the movie from Grassroots Garage so I will leave her out...LOL!
I will also mention that the Michigan MINI Club....those folks sold some popcorn!! Thanks ya'll!! http://www.michiganmini.com/
A very nice event for a cool charity. Nice work all! Let's do it again next year!
