|
|
We haven't done a cruise thru and around Athens in a few years and it is time again. It is always fun to see people's reactions as we go by. We also tend to meet other people who have VWs, but didn't know there was a club.
The cruise we did several years ago ended at The Varsity and that is where we met Steve. Despite this we will do another cruise.
We can pick a starting point, route, and ending point as we get closer to July 3. _________________ 73 Typ481

We could start on July 3rd and cruise on through to July 4th. What better way of showing your patriotism than cruising around town in a German car? _________________ Steve

If we have enough interest to have this cruise, we will start at the Sam's Club parking lot on the Atlanta Hwy. We'll start at 3:00 pm and cruise up Atlanta Hwy to downtown Athens. If we have enough cars, we can drive randomly around downtown so that any time someone looks up they will see an old VW driving past. We can then re-group and cruise to the Varsity parking lot.
After a frosted orange at the Varsity anyone that would like to come by my house for a swim and to hang out is welcome. Feel free to bring a cooler of your favorite beverage.
I know that Clyde and Steve will NOT be joining us.
Who WILL be there? _________________ 73 Typ481

Cool! We can crash the show with VWs. If the show at the Varsity is on Saturday we will miss it, as our cruise is on Sunday. _________________ 73 Typ481

The cruise was fun today. Hopefully the downtown athens traffic will recover soon. _________________ 1969 Beetle
