MINI USA DECLARES JULY 24 AS NATIONAL DAY OF MOTORING
Celebrates day with “MINI Together,” a nationwide owner rally
Declaration officially approved by the National Day Archives
Nationwide rally for owners on July 24 to celebrate their love for the drive
Woodcliff Lake, NJ, June 2, 2021.
MINI USA
today announced the official declaration of July 24 as
National Day of Motoring
to celebrate the American road trip and encourage people to get out and enjoy the open road. To celebrate this declaration, MINI USA will host a nationwide rally experience for MINI owners called
MINI Together
. The event combines three unique elements, which includes an individual driving experience, a digital app-based experience with tasks, trivia and a scavenger hunt, followed by a national virtual get-together of participants at the end of the day.
The rally will take place on July 24, 2021 – the first official
National Day of Motoring
. The
MINI Together
event will rally MINI owners from across the U.S. to drive a self-curated road trip. The event is designed to give the MINI community an opportunity to rally while also complying with national and local guidelines to reduce the risk of COVID-19.
“Our customers buy a MINI because it’s fun to drive and comes standard with friends,” said Patrick McKenna, Department Head of Marketing, Product and Strategy, MINI USA. “With
MINI Together
, we felt this was the perfect opportunity to provide a modern twist to the traditional road rally so that our beloved MINI Community can come together safely.
Through the nationwide network of participating MINI dealerships,
MINI Together
rally participants will check in and start the scavenger hunt-based game experience using a specially developed app. Drivers will complete smile-inducing tasks—such as “get lost and have fun doing it”. At the end of the day, the community will come back together for a virtual evening event hosted by Mike Peyton, Vice President and Chief Motorer of MINI USA.
With 65% of all MINI owners as pet owners, MINI USA is also working with Best Friends Animal Society as its charity partner for
MINI Together
. A charity partner with MINI USA since 2013, Best Friends Animal Society is a leading animal welfare organization dedicated to ending the euthanizing of dogs and cats in American animal shelters. Participants of
MINI Together
will have the opportunity to fundraise, with prizes awarded for top fundraisers and the scavenger hunt, will include “Best Friends” tasks and trivia.
The
National Day of Motoring
has been established as a day to celebrate the institution of driving and getting out to enjoy the open road with family and friends. For over 60 years, MINI has made cars that are fun to drive. In fact, “fun to drive” is the number one reason people buy a MINI according to customer shopping data. The MINI owner community is another draw to the brand. Many owners are known to join together through MINI clubs and dealer driving events to enjoy motoring in the company of like-minded MINI fans.
The submission by MINI USA to the
National Day Archives
was approved earlier this month and other national day calendar applications are in progress. Registration for
MINI Together
will open on June 15, 2021. Learn more at
