Hello all, please put this event on your calendars.
BMW car show, sponsored by Badger Bimmers chapter of BMW CCA and BMW of Milwaukee North.  This is the 13th year of the show.  It's at BMW of Milwaukee North (formerly Concours BMW), 5990 N. Green Bay Avenue, Glendale WI on Saturday, June 4, 2016.  Open from 10:00 am until 2:00 pm.
If it's nice outside, the show is held in the service parking lot area.  If it's raining, the dealership clears out their showroom and service drive and we have the show indoors.
There will be people's choice voting in 7 classes and complimentary light refreshments.  Spectating and entering a car in the show is free for everyone.
Hope to see you all there!  Maybe it will be warm by then

It is now either BMW of Milwaukee North or Umansky if you don't feel like saying all the words for BMW of Milwaukee North.  We continued to use Concours BMW as the name until we were provided new ad templates, etc. for the new name.

I run the Tuesday cruise night in Mequon (used to be at Highland House, got kicked out of there for being too big, now we're back at the old Brew City Grill/Sybaris location, but anyway...).  I also organize the Concours BMW show for Badger Bimmers, plus a bunch of other stuff.
 
This is an issue that comes up every so often. I think the answer is - it depends.  A show like our Tuesday night thing always has been and always will be open to any kind of car anyone wants to bring.  Old, new, interesting, boring, exciting, clean, dirty, whatever.  It's a social thing, and we have space for everyone.  A show like the Concours BMW show is obviously for BMWs only (except for a few non-conformists who bring something else and are too dense to figure it out and we're too polite to expel them).  A show like the Saturday night show at the HAWK in Elkhart Lake shouldn't have Subaru WRXs in it, etc. Space is limited and it does piss me off that a WRX takes the spot away from a "more worthy" car.
 
But the bottom line is that almost all shows are organized and run by volunteers, and it's already aggravating enough to do all the work and listen to people bitch about this that and the other thing (and snap getting a bagel! ), to have to worry about pissing off some idiot by telling them their EconoBox SUX isn't a show car.  Life's too short.  I just don't look at cars that don't interest me and so far I'm only halfway to crazy.

The weather looks like it is going to be fantastic today.  Come on out and show off your BMW.  Free muffins, even for Snap!  While they last, anyway.

All BMWs and MINIs are welcome to show.  Pristine or rough, clean or dirty.  The more the merrier.  Weather forecast is looking good.

Well... Hate to say it but it seems like this message board is about as juvenile as every other BMW board.  What a waste of time.

Hey Dan, haven't seen you in a while!  OK, you twisted my arm, here are some V8's for you.
