The Volks Folks will hold a Club Picnic at Fort Mountain State Park on Sunday, September 30. The club will be furnishing burgers, hot dogs, chips and drinks. All club members (and any other VW enthusiast for that matter) are invited to bring their family and join us for an afternoon of fun, food and friends. We should have plenty of food . . . but you can bring a dessert to share if you wish.
Several of us will be camping at the park Friday and Saturday night. Anyone who wants to join us for the weekend is welcome! Visit the Fort Mountain State Park web site for more information on the park, directions, or to make camping reservations. Club members should visit the members only section of the forums for details on a limited number sites we have reserved for the weekend.
Our next club meeting will be on Monday, October 15th, 7:00 PM at China Moon Buffet. China Moon is located in the Eastgate Town Center on Brainard Road between Holiday Bowl and Wal-Mart.
Check out the VW events around the Southeast (and sometimes beyond) listed on our Events Page. Please attend and support as many of these events as possible! If you know of any others that we don't have listed, please post them in our Events Forum.
Stocking Full of Love Show Has Huge Turnout!
On Labor Day (Sept. 3rd), the Volks Folks helped out with the Walker County Stocking Full of Love's annual Labor Day Car Show. The show received a tremendous amount of support this year. There were over 200 cars in the show and it raised over $3000! For the entire weekend (including a Motorcycle Poker Run and a Sock Hop) the Stocking Full of Love took in over $8300! The money will be used to help provide food and Christmas gifts for under-privileged children in the area! On behalf of those children, we want to thank each and every person who helped out by volunteering their time or showing their car!
