Count me in, I'm not sure how I'll do it yet, I can't pull the dune buggy and the trailer, but I'm going to look at toyhaulers tomorrow. Worse case I'll just bring a tent.

Greg it's the one marked A the one on the corner of 16 and 2093.

At the moment I have a campsite reserved at Lady Bird Johnson Park. If we ever get some half-decent weather I'm going to finish my homemade tear drop camper / buggy hauler.

I and my lowly camper may feel intimidated among all the big rigs I usually see at Oakwood. :lol:

Yesterday I also reserved a room at Holiday Inn in Salado for the Blast.

Cory,

We already looked at a toy hauler last month. Santa delivered this 2008 Raptor to us a few days before Christmas. It has a 12ft area for hauling the buggy.

Bill,

Change the reservation over to Oakwood, gonna have lots of good stories told around the campfire, etc.

Hopefully no rain this year 8-)

Billy

by **Bryan Porter** » 09 Sat Jan, 2010 11:09 am

Cory no tent sites at oakwood but they do have 2 rental trailers or ladybird hase tent sites

by **CoryN** » 09 Sat Jan, 2010 12:05 pm

Oh that's nice Billy! Little bigger than I'm planning though. I can't go gooseneck

by **GregR** » 09 Sat Jan, 2010 1:09 pm

Nice Billy! Keep an eye on your tires. The folks I stayed with when I buggies in California have a Raptor. When Mel first got it, he had issues with the tires wearing. As I remember, he said the weight of the trailer was stated lower than actual and that the tires were underrated for the actual weight of the trailer.

by **Texasbuggys** » 12 Tue Jan, 2010 10:36 pm

Very nice Billy, thats sweet man

by **Bryan Porter** » 13 Wed Jan, 2010 10:50 am

by **Don** » 13 Wed Jan, 2010 11:50 am

We don't have a camper so we have made reservations at La Quinta. Hopefully we can stop by the campground in the evening.

by **Bill K** » 13 Wed Jan, 2010 11:59 am

by **Texasbuggys** » 17 Sun Jan, 2010 1:03 pm

I know lots of folks this year are camping but for the hotel staying crowd, where is everyone staying this year? And what dates? It would be nice if a bunch of us stay at one hotel.

We are staying here Copunrty Inn Hotel - 830.997.2185, we stayed here last year and it was clean and cheap $98 a night and most everyone has a two night min this weekend. So we are staying Friday and Sat. Call early as things will fill up fast. If ya stay tell them you are with the Buggy Club

Jack, The details of when and where normally don't come together till a few days before the show.
Don't worry you'll have plenty of fun just try to stay out of the burnout contest, I know how you youngsters are

by **Ken** » 24 Sun Jan, 2010 7:45 pm

Hey everyone we are booked at the La Quinta for Saturday. Can't wait to hangout with everyone. It seems like it been forever.

We are ready for some bugging. We have a windshield now, yes real automotive safety glass! It is awesome to drive in the dark and be able to see the road. I think it looks pretty good too...

by **David Head** » 24 Sun Jan, 2010 9:26 pm

Ken a lot of is are staying at the country inn. It looks real nice on their website. Our room was only 98.00
yall should check it out.

by **Ken** » 25 Mon Jan, 2010 10:38 am

We are at the Country Inn now.

I had called them originally, but they told me two night minimum. But just got off the phone with the owner Jeff and he said one night no problem. Super nice guy.

Look forward to visiting with everyone.

by **Texasbuggys** » 25 Mon Jan, 2010 8:40 pm

by **buggysurfer67** » 18 Thu Feb, 2010 8:31 pm

Most will be entrants, anyone can get into the park.

by **Jack Duncan** » 19 Fri Feb, 2010 2:42 pm

The wife and I will be there around the campfire, but I'm not sure what I'll be driving since I'll be commuting from Boerne on Friday. Buggy for sure on Sat. and Sun. though.

by **David Head** » 19 Fri Feb, 2010 3:10 pm

Hey Jack, how are the blue bonnets supposed be this year? Have they had enough rain to give us a good showing?

How old is your daughter? We have a 12 year old.

by **Bill K** » 20 Sat Feb, 2010 8:13 pm

I'm planning on having the buggy if we (mostly Bryan's Brain) can figure out why it's running bad.

I haven't decided about entering the show. If they place the buggies where they did last year, I may just drive into the show and park right behind the entered buggies so I can enjoy visiting with the buggy folks.

by **GregR** » 20 Sat Feb, 2010 11:44 pm

I would suggest that anyone planning to enter the Classic go a head and pre-register http://www.texasvwclassic.com/register_online.php
That way Steve knows that we are coming....

by **CoryN** » 21 Sun Feb, 2010 9:15 am

Anyone know about the sponsorship deal? A lot of the aircooler chapters are getting $100 sponsorships. Gets them on the shirt and other things

by **Don** » 21 Sun Feb, 2010 10:36 am

Yes, preregister. You get $5 off and two BBQ dinner tickets.

by **GregR** » 21 Sun Feb, 2010 3:15 pm

Our club has sonsored the Classic every year and been on the show shirt. I am waiting for Steve to send me some particulars ( like which address he wants a check sent to) aa we plan on sponsoring the Classic again this year.

by **buggysurfer67** » 22 Mon Feb, 2010 6:36 pm

They say we'll have a bumper crop this year. I can see them growing, but no blossems until spring of course. Should be beautiful.

by **blackthree4me** » 23 Tue Feb, 2010 11:08 pm

looking forward to seeing you all again

by **matter396** » 24 Wed Feb, 2010 9:54 am

We're at the Country INN!

by **Texasbuggys** » 24 Wed Feb, 2010 1:11 pm

Cool man we will have a crowd of us at the Counrty Inn this year!

by **BrianB** » 24 Wed Feb, 2010 1:52 pm

If I understand the website the actual cabins are not in town where the office is. Where exactly are the cabins? Close to town close to LBJ? Got a map Bobby?

by **Texasbuggys** » 24 Wed Feb, 2010 4:39 pm

The cabins are a ways out of town and if I remember right were down about a 1/2 mile gravel road. Mr porter am I right on this one?

Going on that info I wont likely stay there.

by **Bryan Porter** » 24 Wed Feb, 2010 5:15 pm
