Morning arrives and we are out for a walk with the dogs early so we can quickly get to the showers, making certain we have plenty of time before time to line up our VWs for the caravan to the show. The rest of the camp is stirring and making preparations to leave camp for the day.  As each of us is ready, we get in line, ready to caravan. Again, we want to stay together since only a few know how to get to the show venue.  It is always fun to caravan through town…bringing joy to folks on the road…we make quite a sight. As we turn left, a couple of buses turn off to the right – always a couple of rebels in the group — we figure they are going for breakfast burritos.

The show is being held at a lovely city park along the river with beautiful grassy knolls around a pond with walking paths and a nice cabana area where registration is located. We are all directed to park lined up on bluff overlooking the show area.  Once parked, we set up the awning for shade and showing off the tent part of our camper before going down to check in and register.   The local club hosting the show is well organized and registration is easy. We take our registration card back to the camper to post in the window, then head out to do our participant judging.  It is fun seeing and connecting with friends and acquaintances who weren’t at the campout and judging takes awhile with the frequent stops for visiting. The attendance is impressive with a good variety of nice VWs and the weather is absolutely perfect for a being at a car show.
