What: 21st Annual VW Turkey Run Car Show-Fundraiser - FREE SHOW When: Saturday, November 17th from 9am - 3pm Where: Volkswagen of St. Augustine 3235 US Highway 1 S, Saint Augustine, Florida 32086 Come join us for the 21st Annual VW Turkey Run Fundraiser! The Show is FREE for both cars and spectators. Raffles, Music, Eddis & Sons Food Truck, Bouncy House for kids. As many of you know, fellow OG OCOD'er, John Boswell (40) passed away last December of congestive heart failure while waiting for a heart transplant. John left behind his wife Molly, and two children Jack and Mary. All proceeds from the show, including Tee Shirts, Stickers, Posters, Raffles, etc will be donated to Molly Boswell for Jack and Mary. John designed our original OCOD Oil Drip logo, our HeyHo logo, and several other Turkey Run designs. He moved to Philly and designed our Dripfest 1 and 2 designs. On many forums he was known as thehecticskeptic. In person, you may remember his Scarface/Al Pacino tattoo on his forearm. So this year's Tee/Poster design is something very special. It's a hybrid design combining John Boswell's Dripfest 1 design and Arian Buhler's design. Arian has been designing our Tees/Stickers/Posters the last several years including Turkey Run, Mind your Pints, Bulli Brigade, OCOD, Rolling Stones, Bob Marley, and GnR. This is a fundraiser so please feel free to SHARE this and spread the word. Once printed, we will be selling Tees/Posters ahead of the show and day of show. More show info will be posted separately that will include Camping, Hotel info, Friday gtg, Aftershow and Sunday events.

All cars entering the park MUST register for the car show and MUST park in their respective class. There will be NO pre-registration this year for either the car show or swap. You will still queue up in the bottom parking lot and pay at the gate and register your car at the club booth after you park your car inside the park. Because of park concerns with people leaving early in their cars before the show ends, we ask if you think you will have to leave early that you please park your car outside and walk-in. If you would like to be a sponsor or a vendor please contact Rick Spohn at 408-683-0154 after 7 pm. Please note there is NO alcohol, NO pets, and NO BBQs allowed inside the park. These are park rules and must be obeyed. The park has asked us to make sure everyone packs up and leaves immediately after the show is over. This has become a problem in the past and has jeopardized our club to continue to have the show at the park. The Holiday Inn Express located at 17035 Condit Road in Morgan Hill will be the host hotel and security will be provided. For reservations please call the hotel directly at 408-776-7676.
