All Mitsubishi Cookout and Car Show |
Remember, the Cookout is at the ROGERS MIDDLE SCHOOL, not the car museum!
2006 will be the eighth year for the All Mitsubishi Cookout and Car Show. The All Mitsu Cookout is the LARGEST Mitsubishi event in the Upper Midwest!! Come join in on the fun! This year we have a brand new location. We'll be at the Rogers Middle School.
Who: owners of 3000GT, Stealth, Eclipse, Talon, Laser, Galant, EVO, Lancer, Starion, Conquest, Mirage, Diamante, Colt, Cordia, Avenger, Sebring coupe, Stratus coupe, and all other Mitsubishi made vehicles.
What: A cookout and car show for all Mitsubishi made cars. We'll supply the food, and give away some kick butt prizes. Trophies will be given out for 1st through 3rd places in many different categories. Also I'll be doing the Mitsubishi trivia contest.
Where: At the Rogers Middle School, in Rogers, MN. This is a brand new location for the Cookout. The school offers a large paved lot for parking all of the cars. Map for Rogers Middle School
When: Saturday, August 19th, 2006, from 11am to 4pm.
Why: There are a lot of Mitsubishi enthusiasts in the area. This gives us a chance to get together for a once a year event like none other anywhere.
We had well over 130 Mitsubishis attend
this event last year. We'll be expecting around 150 cars this year. Check out

The price for the Cookout will again be
$5. This includes you, your car, and one passenger. This puts your car
in the show and all the food you and your guest can eat. Its a great deal. You can
pay the day of the show, but it speeds up the registration process if you pay before the
day of the show. If you want you can send a check:

Looking for a hotel
room?
These are probably your three best choices. I think Americinn was the
favorite from last year. That would be my first choice.
Americinn 21800 Industrial Blvd Rogers, MN 55374 763-428-4346 |
Its a basic hotel, but they do have a pool and are located only a mile from the Cookout. |
Super
8 21130 134th Ave. North Rogers, MN 55374 763-428-4000 |
I've been in this hotel, and its considered a no thrills hotel. Its within walking distance to the Cookout. Less than 1/2 mile. A nice Denny's restaurant next door too. |
Hilton
Garden Inn 6350 Vinewood Lane Maple Grove, MN 55311 763-509-9500 |
A little more upscale than the others. Has a pool and some other amenities. Its about 9 miles from where the Cookout is going to be. Its also closer to major shopping and restaurants. |
Or if you really want to save a few bucks, you can camp. There is a campground about 5 miles away:
Koa Minneapolis NW Campground
10410 Brockton Ln N
Maple Grove, MN 55311-1003
