Why: To honor our veterans and support our wounded, ill, and injured Veterans. All donations will be going to Operation Second Chance. Come join us for the return of a flagship event for DC Metro MINIs. We will be starting at the American Legion Post this year, where we will stage our cars before taking a MINI parade lap around the outer loop of the beltway. You will be amazed at all the waves and smiles you'll get as part of a line of MINIs as far as the eye can see! We will return to the American Legion Post after the lap to socialize, give away great prizes that were generously donating by our sponsors, and eat a delicious lunch by Mission BBQ; or attendees are welcome to bring their own lunch.

Raffle: Raffle tickets will be included with your registration, and winners will be drawn during lunch. Please keep an eye out for a list of great prizes donated by our generous sponsors.
