Bug-A-Paluza is less than three months away, so start getting warmed up for it by participating in these events:
The Dead of Winter campout is coming up on Friday, February 2nd - Sunday, February 4th at Cloudland Canyon State Park on Lookout Mountain. OK, maybe that's not a good place to "warm up" but it's always fun!
We are moving our February Cruise-In to the SECOND Friday evening (Feb. 9th) in case you want to attend the campout and our cruise-in. The February Cruise-In will be held at Mr. T's Pizza on Hwy. 58.
Our next Volks Folks monthly meeting will be at the China Moon Buffet (in the Eastgate Town Center on Brainard Road) on February 19th at 7:00 PM.

The Volks Folks Christmas Party/December Meeting will be held on Monday Evening, December 18th at the China Moon Buffet. The festivities will begin around 7:00 PM. We will continue our tradition of exchanging gifts "Chinese Auction" style! If you want to participate, please bring one wrapped gift for each person participating. The gift does not necessarily have to be VW or auto related. Please keep it to a maximum of about $10 in value.
If you have never participated in this event, here's how it works -- All participants will draw a number. #1 goes first, then #2, etc. When your number comes up, you may select an item from the pool of gifts, unwrap it, and show it to everyone, or you may take an item someone else has already unwrapped. If someone takes an item from you, you start over . . . either take an item from the pool, or take something from someone else. Once an item has been claimed 3 times, it is considered dead and can not be taken away . . . until the end when the first person (#1) gets the opportunity to swap gifts with anyone in the room.
We always have a blast! So wrap up a gift and head out to China Moon and Monday, December 18th at 7:00 PM. (China Moon is located in the Eastgate Town Center, formerly Eastgate Mall, on Brainard Road between Holiday Bowl and Wal-Mart.) We'll be looking forward to seeing you there!
Please come out and join the Scenic City Volks Folks in supporting the annual Channel 3 Share Your Christmas Food Drive! The food drive will be going on all day long on Wednesday, December 6th at the First Tennessee Pavilion on Carter Street in Chattanooga. Channel 3 will be broadcasting live from the pavilion throughout the day, ending with the 6:00 o'clock news. The Volks Folks will continue our tradition of dropping off our canned goods and non-perishable food items at the beginning of the 6 0'clock news.
Our gathering point this year will be Coker Tire's headquarters, located at 1317 Chestnut Street. We will leave Coker's at about 5:55 PM -- ** CHANGE OF PLANS!! THE FOOD BANK HAS REQUESTED WE BE THERE A LITTLE EARLIER IF POSSIBLE. WE WILL TRY TO PULL OUT FROM COKER'S AT 5:45 PM!! ** -- and drive over to the pavilion. (Directions to Coker Tire: From I-24 east, take Highway 27 north to Main Street exit 1. Left on Main two blocks to Chestnut. Left on Chestnut 1 block. From I-75, take I-24 west and follow above directions.)
So please, pick up a few non-perishables, hop in your Volkswagen and come join us for this very worthwhile event!
