Plans are underway for the 2007 All Mitsubishi Cookout and Car Show. This year's event will be happening on Sunday, August 26th, at the Rogers Middle School, in Rogers, MN. The event will run from 11am to 4pm. We've got our two main sponsors on board again, Brookdale Mitsubishi and LSE Performance. I'm also confident that we'll beat last year's record of 142 Mitsus. All the details about the All Mitsu Cookout can be found at: http://cookout.mn3s.org

If you are planning on coming, take a minute and fill out the sign up form at:

Hope to see you there,

It's about that time, eh, Curt?

Seems like this thing is always closer to the DSM Shootout dates than some people would like, but you never give up. I think this has to be your third year posting about the AMC on 2GNT and not only do you always manage to post it up in the right place on the board, but you're growing the event. Kudos to you, sir.

One of these days, I'll have to give some thought to making my way out there for this thing. Just to try something different.

Hey everyone,

Things are coming along great for the Cookout. We've got 41 people on the sign up list so far:

Hey everyone,

We've had a lot of sign ups in the last week. We have 64 cars signed up so far. That's great. I also have a flyer put together at: http://www.mn3s.org/cookout-flyer.doc

I always keep a hand full of these in my car in case I spot a nice Mitsu somewhere. Also, if you work at a business that is car oriented, maybe print a few off and have them laying on your counter or pin one up. Any advertising you can do will help. Every year we get a few people that come to the Cookout that had no idea it existed before they got a flyer.

Thanks,
Curt

Hey everyone,

I received a bunch of prizes from Corporate Mitsubishi last week. Got some t-shirts, hats, a big cooler, and some smaller items.

Sign ups are looking good. I just updated the page. We've got 74 signed up so far: http://www.mn3s.org/cookout-list.html

And don't forget to hand out a flyer when ever you come across a nice Mitsu. They really do help spread the word.

Thanks,
Curt

I just updated the sign up page. We are up to 81 sign ups!!

The price for the Cookout is $5 again. That includes you, your car, one passenger, and all the food you can eat. It would really help if you prepaid using paypal. My paypal is cgendron@mail.com If you pre-pay it helps speed up the registration process the day of the show. If you don't have paypal, don't sweat it, just pay at the event.

We are less than seven weeks away now!

Hey everyone,

Thanks to those that sent a paypal in the last week or so. I've had a bunch of them. Looks like we have 97 sign ups. The updated list is at:
http://mn3s.org/cookout-list.html

We are still on pace to get around 150 cars there, which is awesome. But don't forget to keep bugging your friends that own Mitsus. Lets try and get as many cars as we can together. Its gonna be fun!

Hey everyone,

The sign-ups keep piling up. We are up to 124 cars on the list. The current list is at:

We are a little over three weeks away now. If you are planning on coming, don't forget to sign up:

One thing to start thinking about is your car sign. You can fill out your sign ahead of time. Then when you check in, the day of the show, all I need to give you is your car number. Here is the car sign you can download:

And my example sign can be found here:
