Since there are so many new people showing interest in the club, I have gotten an application copy and made it electronic. If you are intertested in becomming a full club member by completing the application and paying dues, send me an email and I will shoot you a copy of the application. Please bring the application the the next club event so we can get you set up. Don't mail it in because we have changed treasurers and your dues may not get where they need to go, unless Donna knows differently.

Good evening, My name is Mike, and I'm the new owner of a 2009 Mellow Yellow Coupe (JustaMINI). I am a retired Air Force member (26 years active) and now teach high school in Knoxville. This is the first MINI for me, but the third Mini I have owned. In 1980 I had a 68 Morris Mini, and after moving to Germany I had a 78 Mayfair. I am really looking forward to meeting other MINI owners, and joining the club.

I am popping my head up since I last posted about "pending" move to Knoxville. What an optimist! (See post 06/27/2009). Well I was off by one month. Home sold on Monday 10/12 and closing is 10/30. Moving to Knoxville 10/31st! Miata coming first (Diana) and Winston (MCS2008) sometime around Dec/Feb. Working out a contract so I have to play follow up. Really looking forward to becoming a full member and giving Winston some long overdue upgrades. Also waiting to see when BMW is going to open the Mini dealership. ;D

Well, we'll be glad to have you when you get here, but that is definitely the wrong order to bring the cars in. You need the Mini on your move-in day, since that is the same day as the Boo Run in Gatlinburg. As this may be the last one, you'll be kicking yourself if you don't attend.

Well, Half the move is complete. Wife in rental home as of 31st. Took her 4 days to find a home and now were set to close 12/11. While I was up for the first phase I was at "Buddy's B-B-Q" on Sunderland? or Kingston Pike and saw my first Mini (MC white with black top). Hoping to follow in Dec with Winston. Right now I am at the Vista Mini Dealership getting a tire replaced after hitting metal on I-95. Runflats did the job and got me to dealer with no problem (or air). I am sooooo... ready to get up there!

Sorry to have missed both events. Illness and timing were against it. Hopefully closing on our new home 29th and will be getting that done for the next few weeks. What events or meetings are planned for Jan/Feb? I think I saw somewhere about "dues" or "membership fee". What is the amount and where do I send it? Thanks Happy Holiday! Barry & Winston!
