Folks,
The Wet Westies are at it again! The first campout of the year is
being held on the Puyallup Fairgrounds in Puyallup, WA the night
before the VW spring show and meet. I don't think this info has been
posted to the vanagon list before, so here it is. Dan is organizing
the camp out, contact info for him is below.
People will be coming to this from Canada, Wa, ID, and OR. If you're
further away, hell, you're welcome too!
This is a great chance to meet with lots of other list folks, and do
that first "shake-down" camp of the year. I believe other folks have
posted this invite also to the vintagebus and Type2 lists. There are
about 15 folks coming from the wetwesties list alone!
All vanagon list folks are invited--you don't even have to have a
westy! But, of course, it always helps... ;-)
Here's the scoop!:
