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 need donated items for the raffle!!
We have our usual selection of tools chests, cash and misc items. Please, if you can donate to the raffle any type of cool items will be gladly added to the booty, it doesn't have to be VW related.
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 to 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: No Food Service this year. We will have a group BBQ fired up so all you have to do is bring your favorite BBQ to throw on the grill.
CRUISE INFO: There will be cruises from the North and South.

Yes, must be present to win. This is part of our regular raffle we have every year at MITM. We just have a cool project car this year to add to the winnings.
A lot of you know Randy who passed away this year. His son Paige, has been generous and donated this car. Paige should be at MITM this year driving his dads old Coral Red 57 ragtop now with REAL Okrasa power.

It's a definite GO for MITM! It's going to be another great Central Coast Day for a gathering of our VW family.
See you all tomorrow at Nojoqui Falls Park!

great time and great weather...I say there were at least 320 cars!
I counted 220 on the grass west of the road alone. It was all free as usual, paid for by the raffle. Great job Mr. O'Kelly!
