I'm not a wine person either so I didn't go last year but after looking at the feedback from last year's event, it looked like there was some beer and, better yet, there was chocolate!  But I'll let Allison confirm all that.

The bad news: As far as I can tell, beer has never been served at the wine festival. Sorry!  The good news: There will be chocolate!

Apparently the Triumph club is holding a car show at the wine festival on Saturday, March 6 and we (minis) were asked to come on Sunday only.  Let me know if Sunday is good for everybody.

Might be good to have it on one day so our club can come and make the show as a group Alison. Sunday is a good day for a little wine right? :O)

New to the forum and new to the group.  Is there a specific meeting place?  I haven't been to the festival before so don't really know where to go or meet up.  I would love to meet some of y'all and learn how to get the most out of my motoring life!

Hi grccwill and welcome to the club!! Yes there is a specific meeting place at Anthony's Home Port, 421 S. 227th St., Des Moines, WA at noon on March 7.  See more detailed information at the top of this thread.  Please post all about yourself and your new MINI on the "Let Me Introduce Myself" area of the forum.  We'd all like to hear the details of how you came to own a new mini!
Thanks and see you at the wine festival!!

Hey Alison... Count Steve and me in as tentative.  I'll check with him to be sure, but our schedule looks free on the 7th. 
 
I was going to do the charity firefighter stair climb (tallest building in Seattle) that same day, but I've decided to pass on it this year:  http://www.leukemia-lymphoma.org/all_page.adp?item_id=6012
 
Wine tasting sounds more enjoyable. Wink

Hi all,
Calling all minis! I've just been informed that the Triumph Club will be bringing 40 cars to the Saturday wine festival. I have 12 minis (2 of which are mine! he he!) signed up so far for our mini Sunday wine festival run. Holy cow do we need to show them up! My GR8SCOT will take the lead and my 2010 pepper white will hold up the end this year to make sure we don't lose any minis on the motor. There are a lot of stop lights in Des Moines. I lost a mini last year and it made me so sad. Cry Let me know if you can attend!!BowDown
 
Thank you so much!
Alison

We plan on attending the event, but can't make it with the group due to a scheduling conflict.

Update: I'm working on a short motor south from our meeting place at Anthony's Home Port through some twisties (and hopefully stopping off at a private beach club for a photo op... I'm working on it!) to Redondo and back again to Des Moines ending up at the wine festival. Bring your camera and walkie talkie set to channel 7/21...
