This will be the seventh year for this big event.  The All Mitsu Cookout is the LARGEST Mitsubishi event in the Upper Midwest!!  Come join in on the fun!  The Ellingson Car Museum in Rogers will again be the location.

Brookdale Mitsubishi will be sponsoring the All Mitsubishi Cookout and Car Show again this year.  They have done a great job supporting the enthusiast community.

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 Ellingson Car Museum in Rogers, MN.  The car museum has a nice grass lot behind the building for us to display our cars.  Map to the museum.

When: Sunday, August 21st, 2005 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 100 Mitsubishis attend this event last year.  We'll be expecting around 120 cars this year.  Check out the last six years events:
All Mitsubishi Cookout and Car Show, 2004

All Mitsubishi Cookout and Car Show, 2002
All Mitsubishi Cookout and Car Show, 2001
All Mitsubishi Cookout and Car Show, 2000

The price for the Cookout will be $5. This gets you and a guest into the Cookout with your car and all the food you want.  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:

This year we'll be using FRS radios to announce prize winners through out the day and also to make other announcements.  So if you have an FRS radio with subcodes, bring it.  We'll be using channel 7.

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.

Or if you really want to save a few bucks, you can camp.  There is a campground about 5 miles away:
