Maxicooper Posted October 7, 2009 Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 We had a NC state trooper escort on part of the MINIpalooza run a couple of weeks ago. Probably 10 miles or so on the highway. That was too cool! And this will be fun as well. MD state police and VA state trooper. :rock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mistertripps Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 How about t-shirts? I have a CafePress.com store and would be happy to try and come up with a simple design. I could either offer them at cost, or add a couple of bucks and donate the proceeds to the same charity.
