We had a great meeting last night. Made a few slight changes to the show, but nothing too drastic to effect how the show will feel. Still on the grass and under the trees. We are challenged to find space for the growing amount of show cars and cars parked by club. Any changes made are in hopes to only make the show more enjoyable and include everyone as a community. Feedback is appreciated too.

And there is a rumor that this is our last year as a club. Please note it is NOT our last year. We hope for many more shows to come!

Please register your cars this year, the first 300 cars REGISTERED in the show will get a treat that commemorates our 20th year!

As a tribute to the 60th year of the Karmann Ghia, Ghia's registered in the show will receive a free lunch for registering their car in the show!!

As always food, raffle, games, and a pretty darn good swap meet too!!

So I'll be Ghia-less this year as I'm doing a top-end rebuild on my engine, notice a loss of performance after the Kelley Park weekend.
So I'll be driving my Jetta TDI to the show.
