Milwaukee MINIs has brought back their Fall Foliage Drive & (Non-Alcoholic) Poker Run by popular request with a revised route, and virtually all right-hand turns! They will have a pre-drive meeting at Cooper Park, and then begin a 65-mile adventure including rustic roads in the Holy Hill area and the Kettle Moraine Scenic Drive in the Lake Country area to enjoy the fall colors.

Afterwards, the group will eat lunch in Delafield, WI at your choice of Wells Street Tavern or The Loaf & Jug. Both of the Delafield restaurants are next door to each other.  Map

The Poker Run for those who are not familiar with it, is a drive which includes a number of stops along the way where each driver collects a playing card. The driver with the best poker hand at the end of the drive wins!

Please let Theresa Nemetz know via an email response by Friday Oct. 17th at 9AM if you & guests plan on attending, so that she will have a potential head count.  They have requested an advance RSVP.

Hey, everyone!  MTTS - Chicago is just under two weeks away.  Some of the planned times and events have changed slightly.  So, if you have not checked it out lately (or at all - tsk, tsk) you should really see the list of planned activities.  And it’s not too late to get your advanced tickets with a bag of swag.

If you are planning on attending make sure to read the handy packing guide on the MTTS site.  It lists many of the things people in Miami/Boston didn’t have and wished they had thought to bring.

FYI: The Chicago group CMMC is working with the Milwaukee group on a scenic drive from Wisconsin into Chicago on Friday, with multiple points for people to join up.  The CMMC site also has a PDF of the grounds showing the location details.
