I don't have results of the winners for shows we don't run. But I can contact Chuck to see if he can send me the list, and I'd be happy to post it on our website for everyone to see. _________________ Heather

.... your welcome! I wanted to get some fancy shots but ran out of time. I tried to get everyone at least once. Some came out blurry, but I can't tell til I see it on my computer.
I'll be making a movie from our Moose show and Volksmeet for this year. So drive by me slowly if you see me filming you in July. _________________ Heather

Yeah, Heather rocks! |
Thank you! I need a shirt that says Photographer so people move out the way or pose. Its difficult waiting for that clean shot when you have over 400 cars to get pictures of. Plus a new camera would help too. This one is junk. Time for me to start a camera fund.

What a great show this year! Seemed like more cars than in the past...and I even scored a mirror I've been looking for in the swap area! So many great people and great cars. Hey, are the class winners posted somewhere?

I had a great time @ the show. Printed a ton of t-shirts on site and got a lot of new customers. Show was well attended, though I missed the campout for reasons beyond my control. I really liked the Langan vw display, lots of rare vw metal to ogle. Next year I will definitely be back, with more screens!

Thanks to Chuck and all that put on another great event. As mentioned before, the weather could not have been better. It was great catching up with all the NE'ern samba peeps! The swap was pretty kick a$$ this year too! _________________ www.dasvolks.com

well, seeing how i generally hate people, i don't know if i would be a very good host. but it would be a short ride for you guys.
i hope it all gets sorted, and chuck and the gang always put on a good show. it almost seems that the LFBI has worn out it's welcome at the fairgrounds. the last 2 or 3 years the people that collect the money etc seem douchy.
and that was a hand full of my nuts glenn was grabbing. sad. it is the most action i have had in a while. but, i gotta tell ya, i sorta liked it _________________

I have to agree about finding a new place to camp. Shutting down the washroom at 8:00 and expecting 200 people to share one porta-john was just stupid. Add to that the fact that there are almost no level sites and you've got no way to justify a $15 fee. When it was time to leave, the gate was chained shut and everyone had to figure out how to get out on their own.
I suppose the free feed was part of the $15 fee, but I'm not really sure. They didn't have a tip jar and refused my fiver.
All that aside, we had fun anyway. Weather has never been better. We saw some old friends and made some new ones, and I've never seen so many buses in one row in my life.
And yes, my car has been keyed. It was before I owned it. PLEASE stop asking... |
