Posted by MIRPA on December 8, 2011  |   2 Comments »

Bobby Unser Indy 500 1968We are proud to announce that we have secured Bobby Unser, 3-time Indy 500 winner, 13-time Pikes Peak Winner and 9-time front row qualifier at Indy as our key-note speaker at this year’s winter banquet to be held on Saturday February 25th.  The evenings events will include a private autograph signing event, silent auction, dinner, live auction and post-dinner autograph session.

YOU WILL WANT TO ATTEND AND/OR SPONSOR THIS EXCITING EVENT!!!!
Past winter banquet speakers have included Ronnie Kaplan, Tony DeLorenzo and Bobby Rahal (accompanied by his Father and mentor Mike Rahal).  The last two years the event has been sold-out.

Would you  have the opportunity  to donate something of interest for the Live or Silent Auction?    We also have an opportunity for sponsorships in the amount of $1,000, $750, $500 and $250 available. Additionally, should you desire, there is one spot for a primary event sponsor.   Your sponsorship will be evident at all of our events for the next year.  You will certainly not want to miss this opportunity to connect with so many motorsports enthusiasts.

So far we have Mecum Collector Auctions, Nickey Chicago, Vintage Motorsport, Vintage Race car, and Restorations Unlimited as underwriting sponsors of the event.

Please consider supporting this worthwhile cause to keep the legend of Meadowdale alive in the hearts of motorsports enthusiasts worldwide.
