Hey everyone,

The planning for the 2012 All Mitsubishi Cookout and Car Show is underway. This year's event will be happening on Sunday, August 26th, 2012. The event runs from 11am to 4pm.

Once again we will have this huge event at the Rogers Middle School in Rogers, MN. We will have a lot of great prizes and some awesome food. This is one of the largest Mitsu events in the country. We are hoping to get over 150 Mitsus on display. You don't want to miss it!

Complete details and the sign up page can be found at http://cookout.mn3s.org

We will all eat hamburgers and brauts in your honor. :)

Glad you can make it again!

Hey everyone,

We've had a good number of sign ups so far. I think there is 37 people officially signed up and 71 people signed up on the Facebook event. Keep spreading the word!

I'll be up at BIR for the Proving Grounds this weekend. If you have any questions about the Cookout, just look for the All Mitsu Cookout poster:

Hey everyone,

Just updated the sign up list. We've got 43 cars signed up already. Looking good!

If you need to get pumped up for this event, just surf on over and watch the video from 2010:

Also, I have the flyer created. It is at:
http://mn3s.org/cookout-flyer.doc

I'd really like us to set a new record for Mitsus there. The record is 166 cars. So make sure to tell your friends and give out some flyers where ever you can.

Thanks for the flyer. I've printed a stack of them to leave on the counter at work and will be asking a few shops around my store if they don't mind displaying a flyer.

Thanks Matt!! This kind of stuff can really make a difference.

I made another update to the sign up list. We have 49 people officially signed up so far:

We also have a Facebook event set up. There has been a lot of people signing up there. Over 100 so far. That is really encouraging. If you want to get in on the Facebook discussion, the FB event page is at:

I'm also hoping to finalize the price of the Cookout this next week. I'm hoping to keep it at $5, but right now we only have one sponsor lined up. A big thanks to White Bear Mitsubishi! If anyone would be interested in sponsoring the All Mitsu Cookout, get in contact with me.

Hey everyone,

Don't forget to fill out the official sign up page at:
http://mn3s.org/lists/?p=subscribe&id=5

This is the data I use to determine categories and its the info I use when you complete your registration on the day of the show. So get signed up if you are coming. We've got 56 of ya so far.

Also, MAP is now a main sponsor as well. I've added the sponsor banners and some other updates to the main All Mitsu Cookout page at:
http://cookout.mn3s.org

Thanks,
Curt

Hey everyone,

Things are coming along great for the All Mitsu Cookout. We have 63 people officially signed up. We have 120 people on the Facebook event.

Since we have both MAP and White Bear Mitsubishi as main sponsors, we will be able to keep the price of the Cookout at $5. So for $5, you can get yourself, and car, into the show and all you can eat. Each additional guest who wants to eat will be $5. We'll have plenty of burgers, brauts, chips, cookies, veggies, pop, and water for ya.

I've been to several car events in the last month. I've handed out a lot of flyers and talked to people about the All Mitsu Cookout. And even though I have the Cookout info on 40+ message boards, I still find Mitsu owners who have never heard of the All Mitsu Cookout. So keep telling all your friends, who own Mitsus, about the Cookout. It can really make a difference. If you want to print off some flyers to hand out, the link is at:

Thanks,
Curt

Happy Friday the 13th everyone! The only thing scary that I can think of is how SCARY of a good time the All Mitsu Cookout is going to be this year. :-)

We now have a third main sponsor for the Cookout. Midwest Turbo Connection is now on board! Links to all the sponsors can be found on the All Mitsu Cookout webpage.

We are up to 79 people officially signed up. See the current list at:
http://www.mn3s.org/cookout-list.html

So keep getting those car projects done. We only have six weeks left!

We've had some great momentum for the Cookout this year! Looks like we have 86 people signed up now. Keep up the great work.

Don't forget to visit our sponsor websites. They help keep the All Mitsu Cookout dirt cheap!

Hey everyone,

Don't forget to get "officially" signed up for the All Mitsu Cookout. Just fill out this form:
http://mn3s.org/lists/?p=subscribe&id=5

The sign up list is what I go off of to make important decisions like categories and how much food to buy. I'll be finalizing the trophy categories in the next two weeks. So get signed up. I've got the list current, with 96 sign ups:
http://www.mn3s.org/cookout-list.html

We also have a Facebook event created. There are some good discussions on there too. The Facebook event is at:

Anybody else here going, besides polishmafia and myself?

[polishmafia]

I'm still trying to find a forklift - but I will bring a Mitsu blender if I have to! :D

[M-Rod]

I'm sure there are a few TV's on craigslist that you could turn into a pedal bike if all else fails :)

[curt_gendron]

LOL. I can't wait to see what you bring.

[curt_gendron]

We've had a great group of sign ups in the last week. We are at 112 sign ups now. The current list is at:
http://www.mn3s.org/cookout-list.html

Now would be a good time to look at the list. If your Mitsu friends aren't on it, start bugging them. Send them an email, text, facebook invite, or pick up the phone. They need a virtual slap in the face. :-)

I'll probably finalize the car show categories in another week or two. And you now have less than four weeks to get those car projects done!
