Hey Samba Guys I know everyone's busy and all and my ask is a BIG task but....

Can somebody maybe take a look at the Club page. Most of these clubs listed don't exist or the people that run them are so lame they can't keep their own info current.

If you click on the web page link for a club and it goes nowhere... Should they be listed here? I mean if I left something up for sale that was sold long ago y'all would be havin' none of that. SO.... If they haven't kept their website up, or their Facebook page current or if they have a freakin myspace page. How about they just get REMOVED. If it says "hey I'm thinking about starting up a club"....how about NO, come back when you ACTUALLY HAVE A CLUB.

This way people who are looking for a real live actual club could maybe find one and keep this VW culture thing alive and well. Just sayin'

Are you volunteering to check every link yourself?

Yes, it's a problem.

Please send me an email with any club names that are dead and I will remove them.

People do this from time to time for single club listings and I appreciate it.

Businesses too, in the business listings.

Just another part of the efforts Everett (and many others) expend to make this site great.

This made me go back and check my membership, and it had lapsed in January! Renewal time ASAP! When we can't contribute effort, this is the next best thing.

Thanks for all the work, Everett and Team!

Anyone who wants to check a State (clubs) or Category (businesses & links) and send me a list of anything that is no longer there, I'll delete them.

Easiest thing to do is copy/paste the full NAME into a list and email it directly to me at [email protected]

There is no way to send a direct link to each listing.

Thanks.
Questions? email me.
