Read On...

General Info: Meet us in the Middle for a gathering of VW enthusiasts from Southern and Central California. The location is beautiful Nojoqui Falls Park in Santa Barbara County. It is near the Danish style city of Solvang. Take the short hike up the trail to the falls that are usually flowing nicely this time of year.
There is no charge to get in.

Raffle:
We are still working on the details for this As usual we will also have our big roll around tool chest and other cool stuff.
Help us out and bring something to raffle. It doesn't matter how small it is, we will package together items to make a good prize. Any non VW prizes would be great also. Just bring to the BBQ whatever you have to donate. Or mail to Brian O'Kelly, 2014 Kleck Rd, Paso Robles, CA 93446

Awards: Now's your chance to get back at all those event organizers who never get it right Wink. Bring your own award, serious, funny, or just outside the box to give to whoever you think is deserving. You can announce it yourself or we will do it according you your instructions!

If you bring an award come by the BBQ and get a notice to put on the car so they show up to the awards/raffle.

This is a fun alternative to the usual show awards. Be creative and have some fun! 

BBQ: We will have a huge group BBQ fired up so all you have to do is bring your favorite BBQ to throw on the grill.
Burger, Chips and a Drink will also be available for $5.

Stealth Swap: Official swapping is not allowed in the park (no tables or parts on the ground)
However...You can bring stuff to sell or trade, but it must be low profile, in your car would be the way to go.

  Vintage Volkswagen owners are encouraged to go all out for the following themes:

  • Beach Boulevard Cruiser - Car you would most want to be seen cruising in
  • Beach Blanket Bingo Central - Car most equipped for that all day or all night beach party   
  • Most Surf Safari Worthy - Car most equipped for that drive in search of the perfect wave

There will be three classes Buses, Bugs and More (Other), each class will award the winners based on the above listed themes. Last year's competition ranged from a simple surf board to a beach party in the back of a single cab! So let your mind wonder back in time and come out and support a great cause either as a entrant or spectator!
