BMW enthusiasts...what more can one say?

The name is a tribute to the German auto manufacturer...I thought that part was pretty obvious. From the FAQ:

What is Oktoberfest and why is it being held in July? (July 5 through the 9, to be exact.)

Curiously, Inquiring Mind



Dear Inquiring,

Oktoberfest is the premier, once-a-year National BMW CCA gathering for all Club members. It’s a big party, a family reunion, and a can’t-miss Club event. It’s called Oktoberfest in honor of our Germanic connection, but it’s not always in October. Holding it in July this year during summer vacation means children can join their parents for a fun-filled family vacation week. And Monday, July 5, is a holiday for most people, so they will save a vacation day.

I take it you guys won't make it? The closest guy is Tom, in New York... :wink:
