Check out http://www.allaircooledgathering.com for more details about all the events planned for this year.

Last year we had over 150 camping and at party in the clubhouse on Saturday night, and over 300 cars on the show field [all air-cooled! No water!!!] on Sunday. We are honoring Karmann Ghias this year so bring out all your Italian beauties and have a great time.

Highlights for this year are:

Valve Cover Racing, bring your own or race one of ours. Watch this thread for more info.

"Dub Push Kompetition" This is another call for all local clubs to participate in the coveted Dub Push Kompetition. Do you have the stones to push your club to victory? This will be the third year and the team to beat is two time winner, the South Jersey Volkswagen Club. The kompetition is fierce, but the prize is the "Dub Push Cup!" You club name will be engraved for prosperity and you will take possession of the cup for a year to return in 2012 to defend your title. We understand if your club is not up for the challenge, not every club is worthy Wink

So come on out to one of the best shows in the northeast

I took a weeks vacation around this show! Since the westy isn't up for the trip, we'll be camping in the bug. Can't wait for this one..

the road in is still the same. You should have no trouble going with the flow of the traffic in the morning and afternoon. Plenty of trailers come to the show.

When the SSC goes to Ny for the Stuben Day parade, they get a charter bus down in there. I would not have believed it, but I saw it happen.

I'll be there, likely driving in an air-cooled VW.

I like that this show is all air-cooled, very large and has an excellent facility, for people driving cars in. As for trailers, well it's not an RV park...

Boston is an hour from Flanders?

Went to this show for the first time last year and I'll never miss it again. The swap meet was awesome, the show cars were incredible, the weather was perfect. Didn't camp last year but thinkin about it for this year.

...true...Boston ain't no hour Wink

...really talking about the guys who live closer...as for our Mass,RI and such we have a hike for sure... point is if your not close you gotta trailer sometimes...unless of course you have a nice stocker to roll. Cool ...mine can not be driven that distance even on it's best day...

...hope the weather will be as nice as the last few...great location and time for sure.

How about a New England Bug push team? I doubt that any of the members in my local club will make it down that far, but I can push.

Very Happy ..but let's not use mine...i wouldn't wanna push this one with it's 10" tires and spool..

but that's a pretty good idea..if the guys are gonna get together for the show we should have at least 6-8 fron Mass,Ct and RI...

sounds like a plan,Stan!
