What to Expect
Bring your own camp chairs and spend an awesome day on the green grass surrounded by Volkwagens of all ages and makes. Reconnect with old friends and make new ones. We’ll have:
- Raffles and door prizes
- Games – including Hot Wheels Racing for the kids!
- Shirts for sale
- Food trucks: Lupe’s Tacos and Alex’s Ice Cream
There is also a pre-show cruise and welcome party on July 26th; those details will also be posted closer to the day of. Don’t miss it! It’s a great way to get acquainted to our club, especially if you’re new.
If You’re Showing a Car/Cars:
You can enter as many Volkswagens as you would like. If you’re showing a car/cars, please do not arrive until 9:00 at the earliest. We park the cars by type as best we can, so please listen to the parking volunteer on where to park, and do the best you can on parking even/straight next to your neighbors. Once parked you can find our registration tent and get signed up/collect your goodie bag and dash signage. There is limited trailer parking on site/in the area. A parking map will be posted here and on our Facebook page when we are closer to the day-of. Volunteers will guide you at the entrance.
It can be windy here in the Valley, so plan your display accordingly. Tape it, tie it, weight it down… don’t lose it in the breeze.
Accommodations
The Mainstays is right next to the show location. A room block is available. Please call and mention RRVWC. King suites for $149 or Queen suites for $159. We get a good break on these rooms, so we would really appreciate you using the block instead of other services to book it. Several of us have stayed here before and it’s really nice. Suites with fridge freezer, etc.
The Fargo/Moorhead area does also offer various campgrounds.
Rules and Requests:
- No scooters, skateboards, skates, bikes, rollerskates, or other recreational wheels allowed in the show area for kids or adults. Leave it at home.
- Do not ever touch or climb into any car without permission from its owner. Not yours, hands (and elbows and butts and anything else) off!
- If you carry a large tote bag, handbag, backpack, keys/phone on a lanyard, etc., keep it close so it won’t drag along a car as you look.
- Keep track of children. We love and welcome kids but we do not love sticky fingers or scratches and dents on our VWs.
- Pets must be leashed and well-behaved.
- Please find a volunteer and donate! Our club uses donations like yours to run events like this!
- Clean up after yourself. There is garbage and recycling available around the venue.
- Be courteous while inside the Visitors’ Center; we’re their guests and we like to leave a good impression.
- Have Covid or some other nasty “bug”? Keep that at home 😉
