SUMMARY:MINI on the Mack 2025
DESCRIPTION:MINI on the Mack invites thousands of MINI Cooper owners to the Mackinac Bridge to break the world-record for the largest-ever MINI Cooper parade. It’s a colorful parade\, as the bridge and nearby cities are taken over by colorful\, exotic\, unique\, comedic and gorgeous liveries. Best of all\, the event raises funds to support biomedical research and science education at Van Andel Institute. \nThis unique event is turbo-charged through a unique partnership between SHARPE Cars and VAI Purple Community. SHARPE has an extensive history supporting communities — organizing\, hosting and sponsoring charity opportunities across Michigan. They led the charge to organize the first Mini on the Mack in 2017\, looking to have some fun and break some records while also making an impact. By organizing a Purple Community event\, SHARPE engages a grassroots network of passionate volunteers and supporters\, all looking to fuel scientific discovery. \nThe celebration features photo opportunities and exclusive merch\, all conveniently scheduled near the rally route. Every dollar raised directly supports Van Andel Institute research. \nHelp us break a world record! Registration closes July 1\, 2025.
