VW Buses n Boats Bash
Morrow, Ohio
The Ohio Valley Tribe of the Full Mon Bus Club would like to
invite you out to our 8th Annual VW Buses 'n Boats camping
and canoeing event this May 16-18, 2008 in Morrow, Ohio
(near Cincinnati).
We will be camping right on the banks of the Nationally
Dedicated Scenic Little Miami River, and I do mean RIGHT on
the banks. The campground is secluded and beautiful. The
weekend will feature VW bus camping, a 6 mile canoe trip on
the scenic Little Miami River (optional), a "Cincinnati
Style" chili dinner on Saturday evening. Of course there
will be live music picking and singing the hole weekend,
world famous Full Moon Bus Club breakfast burritos, and
fires, big fires, REALLY big fires (after all, we are the
only VW bus club that brings at least 4 firemen to every
campout!!!! Really, it's true!). Of course, the Buses n
Boats Bash is family friendly (at least BEFORE 10:00 pm) so
bring the kids and the dogs for a great weekend filled with
Mid-western hospitality. Here's the link with MUCH more info
and pix from the past:

21st Annual MVVC Vintage Festival
Riverside Park in Depot Town
Ypsilanti, Michigan

All air cooled VW's welcome
Huge swap and for sale area, pass in reviews highlighting
participating VWs. This is a new date for our event, as it has
been held in May in years past.
Go to
http://www.mvvc.net for updates on the show as they become
available.
For questions,
edk@mvvc.net.
Also see the website photo gallery section for pictures of
previous years shows. Sponsors include Mid America Motorworks,
Air Head Parts, Karmann Ghia Parts & Restoration and Volkswagen
of America. This is the show that draws spectators from both
coasts. Join us in 08 and see why!
Last year this show was presented as a non-judged event just to
get together for the fun of it. They had a nice gift bag
and tee shirt for the price of admission. The park is very
shaded and a nice place for a swap meet and car show. If
you choose to walk a few blocks, there is a quaint car museum
open during the show and a firefighter museum close by.
The car museum bills itself as the only Hudson dealership still
in existence.
This show is worth the ride to Michigan.

VW Type 3 Invation 2008
Ypsilanti, Michigan
Get all the details at :
http://www.carartbyjohn.com/2008Invasion/
Since the Type 3 is one of the orphans of the VW
world, this is a get together for Type 3's only. You are
welcome to come and see all the various Type 3's,
including possibly some even more rare T-34's, but T-1's
and T-2's are not 'invited' to the Invasion as such. We
hope you will understand.
Please remember what the original focus of the Type 3
Invasions is... Show up at a smallish town, meet other
Type 3 people with a common interest, enjoy building a
kindred bond with said other people, enjoy
each others company and cars, maybe even learn
something new at one of the tech sessions, and most of
all, just relax! The Invasion is NOT a judged car show.
Just a friendly gathering.
Hope to see you and yours there !

The movie is creepy when viewed at the location where it was filmed!
The old pealing paint on the walls , the cold hard steel cells

was one interesting car show!

Oktoberfest Volkswagen Cruise-In
Kokomo, Indiana
The Kokomo Downtown Association of Kokomo, Indiana is once
again pleased to extend an invitation to ALL Volkswagen
owners to be a part of its annual Oktoberfest to be held
around the square downtown Kokomo Friday night September 26,
2008. The streets downtown will be closed for this event
between the hours of 4:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. to allow
Volkswagen enthusiasts to take ownership of the downtown
area. Due to the overwhelming success of this event; KDA has
approved additional “Cruise-In” parking closer to the stage
and main event! So, let’s not disappoint them – LET’S FILL
THE STREETS!
This will be the 4th annual Roger S. Wright Memorial VW
Cruise-In for Kokomo’s Oktoberfest. This is a fun atmosphere
for Volkswagen enthusiasts to come together and share their
passion for the world’s greatest automotive success – The
Volkswagen. All models of Volkswagens are welcomed! We will
have goody bags for every participant and unbelievable door
prizes! So, mark your calendars now! Come and enjoy live
German music, great German food and much - much more. Last
but not least, put on your danc’n shoes and get ready to
Polka like you have never Polka’d before!
SPECIAL ATTRACTION - On Saturday, September 27th, 2008, at
12:00 noon, we will “circle our wagens” and meet downtown at
the Sycamore Market Place to recap Friday night’s event, and
give away more door prizes and have lunch. Then, “head’m up
and move’m out” for a 30 - mile cruise, to the “Duck Tail
Run;” one of the most incredible car shows in the Midwest.
This event last year was an absolute blast! As always, the
special event at the “Duck Tail Run” will be the ~ Flame
Throwing Contest! If you have never witnessed this event, it
is one that would make a pyromaniac drool! You will quickly
see why it is known as one of the “Coolest” car shows in the
Midwest.
We are very fortunate to have our events coincide and expect
this to be another great time for all participants. This
will be a week-end packed with Volkswagens, Hot Rods and
Customs. If you plan on spending a night(s) in Kokomo for
the Oktoberfest, Fairmount’s James Dean Festival or Gas
City’s Duck Tail Run, you will need to make your
reservations early. For hotel and festival information
please visit the following websites:
http://www.kokomo-in.org/lodging.htm - or -
www.jamesdean.com/community/festival/index.htm.
This has proven to be one of the most incredible experiences
we have ever had an opportunity to participate in. So,
prepare to enjoy German culture on Friday night and a cruise
Saturday to an event where Volkswagens, Hot Rods and Custom
Cars out number normal day transportation.
On Sunday September 28, 2008, @ 9:00am we will meet for
breakfast to close out a fantastic weekend and say our
goodbye’s as everyone heads for home.
