The Mini 52
The Surf-n-fun-river-run Part 2
(AKA the Royal Wedding Weekend)
April 28 - May 1, 2011
Satellite Beach, Florida
Hosted by the CMU Classic Mini Fan-atics of Florida

Back by popular demand! Since our next 3 day mountain adventure (Mini 53) isn't until April, 2012, we've had many requests to re-live our Surf-n-fun-river-run. Keeping with the CMU formula of the most fun/drives with the cheapest entry fees and accommodations in north America, here we go again!

Just like the last time, this event will be a laid back, beach style weekend, with, of course, Mini drives/cruises! Florida doesn't have the fast twisty mountain roads of Tennessee but we proved the last time that the beach and the river roads combined with a gaggle of Minis cruising around is a GREAT time. But wait, there's more than just great cruises; there will be some optional beach/surfing time (weather permitting) Friday morning, a swap meet, and following Sunday's scavenger hunt, we'll have a beachside cookout. Wait, what do you think it would cost to stay near the beach? $80, $90, $100 per night? NO, act now and you can reserve your room for just $45 (plus taxes) per night! OK, so now you're thinking there must be a hidden cost for such a great time. The registration fee for 2 1/2 days of Mini fun has to be expensive, right? Wrong, it's just $10 per adult, $5 per teen, and free for pre-teens! That's cheaper than most sit around, 4 hour car shows! Don't delay, and don't miss out on the Mini 52, Surf-n-fun-river-run Part 2!

Take a look at the the original Surf-n-fun-river-run and see what it's all about!

Schedule
Go HERE

Host Hotel 
Days Inn website
180 Hwy. A1A, Satellite Beach 321-777-3552
Mention CMU for the discount at $45.00 per night! That's for any standard room with a queen or double beds. That price is also good if you want to come a day early or stay a day late to enjoy the beaches, go to the Kennedy Space Center, or just to hang out. Note: Discount deadline March, 28, ask nicely afterwards and you might still get it!

Registration
Cost: $10 per adult, $5 per teen, free for pre-teens. Go HERE for the registration form, late fee starts April 21!
It is a BIG help to know how many Minis/people are coming! Register ASAP, but for now, please email Mike at
mike@classicminis.org and RSVP with a Mini/people count . The event will be designed around the amount of Minis/people attending so do it soon!

Car show
Nope, nada, no way, no time! Feel free to look at the Minis throughout the weekend and give the owner a big thumbs-up if you like it. A thumbs-up goes a lot further than a plaque, especially in a beach town, dude.

CMU guidelines...
For those that don't already know, CMU events are open to club members and their guests, both of which must register and pay to participate in part or for the entire event. (The same price for the entire event or just one cruise.) You can arrive in any type of vehicle, but only classic Minis and their variants produced from 1959-2000 can participate in the drives/cruises or anything else scheduled for the event. If you can't bring your Mini, or don't have one, we'll find you a ride in one. There are no exceptions, as our motto says, "Just classic Minis, no ifs, ands or butts."
