2019 Annual Holiday Party & Run


This is a MEMBERS ONLY Event

Your Hosts For The Run:
Christine & Michael Toibin

Come join us at East Bay MINI for another PJs & Pancakes Party.  If you missed the PJs & Pancake Party we had in 2017, don't miss this one. Michael and Christine will be flipping the pancakes as long as you want to eat them or we run out of batter.  For those who aren't interested in pancakes, I'll cook up a few gluten-free chaffles. What's a chaffle? Think waffle made with cheese and eggs. A little cream cheese on it - yummy! I'll also have vanilla yogurt, fruit and granola. East Bay MINI will provide coffee and orange juice.

We will be supporting East Bay MINI's efforts to help out Toys for Tots, so be sure to bring toys to donate.

East Bay MINI will have the parts department open if there are a few holiday gifts you need to pickup for your miniac.  During this event only NorCal MINI members can get 15% off anything - no restrictions other than you can’t combine it with other offers.   

Party Time:
8:00am to 10am


PARKING:
East Bay wants us to enter at 4350 Rosewood Drive (East Bay BMW’s main entrance).  From there you will take a sharp left drive forward and park in a single line so your MINIS are pointing towards the East Bay MINI driveway to exit.  Simon's son Alex will I know you’ll help direct the traffic and Rebekka will be there early to give instructions as well.  We will probably try to separate those going on run afterwards from those who are not.  
 

For those who are interested in a drive after breakfast, we'll take a ride out to the
San Joaquin River National Wildlife Refuge and the Migratory Bird Viewing Platform, from there head home or follow us back to East Bay MINI.
