MINI automobiles converged from as far as
"Imagine a row of over 60 MINI's traveling on Flagler, PGA Blvd. and the Beeline Highway - you should have seen the onlookers waving in excitement!" Stated Kim Duprille, a Braman MINI owner who was part of the convoy.
On arrival to the motoring event, they and hundreds of others were treated to an open track day to put their cars through the paces on PBIR's pro drag strip and slalom course. All day go-kart racing and watching performance and professional race cars make laps around the 2-mile PBIR Road Course were enjoyed by all.
Blogs from Facebook to Twitter and all in between were alive with buzz about the event and bloggers on MINI Club sites such as Sunshine MINI's shared drag strip times and chat pronouncing "Great Event", "Great Turnout", "Beat your time by a hair", and even "Just got home and I'm wiped" were evident late through Sunday evening.
Car show competitions and entertainment by the hit band Ever So Klever kept the crowd lively and a Kid's village kept the young ones interested and engaged.
"We had a blast" stated Neil Archer, President of the popular Wheels Across the Pond Club who was seen on many Slalom runs. "Awesome" pronounced Jacksonville Area MINI's (JAM) Club President Debbie Jeffrey. "I drove 298 miles for this and wow!" she concluded.
"Helping The Lord's Place is a great activity for our staff and management to be involved with" stated Vince Cerone, Braman Motorcars General Manager and COO. "The funds raised at this event represent not only our contribution, but that of every Braman customer. There is a percentage of every car purchased that goes to a good cause to help others and we could not do so without a healthy business and loyal customer base" Cerone continued.
Funds raised from the event will help supply hot meals to homeless men, women, and children while they connect with community resources at our Engagement Center.
Job Training and Placement program participants will not have to walk in the heat of summer to find work but will be able to receive a bus pass from Cafe Joshua. Individuals and families at our residential campuses will receive the personalized support services they need to be able to stabilize their lives and work toward their goals of exiting homelessness.
The Lord's Place is dedicated to breaking the cycle of homelessness by providing innovative, compassionate, and effective services to men, women, and children in our community.
Jan Phillips, director of administration, human resources, and volunteers stated that "all of the clients who volunteered for the event had such a great time and now want to know when they can do it again!"
"Kudos to the Braman family for a fun-filled day. You guys worked very hard to put on a great event. We are pleased to have Braman Motorcars as one of our community partners. Together as a community we can end homelessness one person, one life at a time. " Phillips concluded.

Braman joined Winter Equestrian Festival
Braman Motorcars partnered up with The Winter Equestrian Festival, the largest and longest-running event in horse sports. This event took place at the newly renovated Palm Beach International Equestrian Center in Wellington, Florida. Each year thousands of spectators are captivated by the enticing experience. The events were held from January 7th through March 29th, 2009.
Amongst the crowd and exhibitors were celebrities, eminent business leaders, and political figures. According to Equestrian Sport Productions LLC, The Winter Equestrian Festival is to horse sports what Wimbledon is to tennis, the America's Cup is to sailing and The Masters is to golf.

The WEF is also the home of the only FEI Nations Cup competition in the United States, the most intense competition on the equestrian calendar.

Braman Gives "Horsepower" to Vinceremos
Nearly $14,000 raised from spirited MINI auction at Gala Dinner Dance and Auction
Vinceremos, the therapeutic riding school for the handicapped, had its "Night Under the Stars". The grand night featured "A Feast of Luxury Automobiles" presented by Braman Motorcars, who worked closely with the Vinceremos staff to make this a very successful fund-raiser for a very worthy cause.
Braman bid cards im-use during a spirited auction of the MINI Cooper
Braman Motorcars contributed a two year lease on a MINI Cooper and in the auction part of the evening, the lease helped to raise almost $14,000. Braman Motorcars has gone even further in supporting this wonderful charity by offering to continue the campaign throughout the coming year. Anyone who attended and kept their bid card may call a special number to drive one of our beautiful automobiles. Should they buy the automobile, a donation will be made to Vinceremos.
Vinceremos has a goal of raising one million dollars to build an indoor arena for the children and veterans that it serves. The fundraiser on February 22 raised a quarter of a million dollars toward that goal. With that amount, Vinceremos is close to having met the three quarter mark of their financial goal.
Braman takes pride in supporting community activities, and especially those that provide such important services to our children in need. In the course of this year, Vinceremos will begin working with wounded Veterans, using the Healing Power of horses to advance their rehabilitation, and help them to regain their confidence. Throughout the campaign, Braman was pleased to let our customers know that Braman gives horsepower to Vinceremos. Braman will continue to be there all year long for Vinceremos.
The following week, the couple who bid on the Cooper, Mr. and Mrs. John McCarthy came to our dealership to pick up the brand new MINI for their daughter. Everyone wins, the children who need our help and support, and the winning couple who wanted their daughter to drive an incredibly safe, fuel-efficient car.
We salute the McCarthys and their generosity to Vinceremos. We encourage anyone with the time and horse skills to become a volunteer at Vinceremos. Call them directly at 561-792-9900 and give them the most precious gift you can: time.
The Braman Girls, Stephanie and Gabriella, Flank the winner of the auction. He purchased the car for his daughter.
