Meet in the Middle BBQ X Santa Barbara County, California
Vintage Volkswagen Club of America, Central Coast Chapter, CA
This is our big Central Coast Event, don't miss out!
Rain Cancels
Sunday, March 24, 2013
11am to 3pm
Nojoqui Falls Park, near Solvang
This is a grass roots effort and we need your help to make it a success.
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 will have our usual selection of tools chests, cash and misc items. Please, if you can donate to the raffle bring your VW stash that is just sitting around and not being put to use. Any type of cool items will be gladly added to the booty.
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.
Cruise Info: There will be cruises from the North and South.
From the South:
Leave Ventura at 0900 sharp (get there early) from the Arbys on Main St. 3550 east Main st Ventura Ca
From the North:
Paso Robles, Spring St and 12th 8:00am
Madonna exit, left to Starbucks on Madonna 8:45 am
Santa Maria, Stowell Rd McDonalds 9:30 am

If you have not been to this event it may be a banner year for attendance. With an early spring the weather should be great. There are just not
enough local events around here.  |

We should have the usual tools and VW items, you never know what people will bring though. One year someone brought a nice beach cruiser bicycle to raffle off, that was cool.

That was my dad that brought the bike last year. He had won three hundred bucks the year before and thought it would be good to pay it forward. He and my step mother will be there again this year (they are in a tan and brown Vanagon Adventurewagon hightop.) |

There's a chance I may be there. Been observing through the interwebs for a long time. Looks like you folks but on a worthwhile shindig. Hope to make it finally!
