|
|
I am the President of Central Jersey Volkswagen Society. Every year we host the All Air-Cooled Gathering in Flanders, NJ -September 19th and 20th, the main show on the 20th. Our show get over 200+ air cooled only. This year the club picked type 181's/Things to be the special car of the year. All Thing owners will receive a special gift. So please bring out your Thing in any shape. I own a 73 Sunshine Yellow Thing and will be proud of our class for sure
Here is the show thread.

I'm going to do my best to make it. I know the area well; mother in law lives about 5 mins away. _________________ Buck

Looks like a nice drive from Detroit, I haven't driven my Thing through the Delaware Water Gap in 10 years.
Glad I won't have to cross the GWB
Good weather, and I'm there.
Good luck, Mondshine |

I was at the show last year and will be again this year for sure. There was a whole row of orange Things last year. Maybe us Philly Thing owners can meet up for a convoy to Flanders this year for added fun.

That's an awesome picture. I moved my yellow thing so you guys could arrange that. I remember someone looking a while for me to move it. Whoops.
I really hope we can get a bunch of Things. The camping is great and there is a local hotel that is close if you don't camp. If there is anything I can do to help you make it please ask. I only live 20 miles from the show and could store a trailer or two if you come early.
See ya then. _________________ Central Jersey Volkswagen Society - President |

Did you come to Kubeltreffin in Dover? I remember talking with you I believe. We stayed in the host hotel with our two daughters. _________________ Central Jersey Volkswagen Society - President |

Trailer ?
Yes, I drove my Thing to Dover; shot this:
And you know Casey, Dayton is not that far from Jersey.
There is still room for you guys at KTE 2015 in a couple weeks!
Good luck, Mondshine |

That was fun day. My kids still talk about that weekend.
I would go out to the show, but I'm having back surgery this month. I'll be all healed up for September. _________________ Central Jersey Volkswagen Society - President |
