Festival Invitation

Postby Bill K » 22 Sun Jan, 2017 8:15 pm

I got the email below from a friend of mine who is involve with events for Downtown Rosenberg. He also has one of the best breakfast taco places in Texas. It's called Bob's Taco and it's pretty popular throughout the area.

So, I'm checking to see if there is any interest in making this event. I'd like nothing better than to show of in Rosenberg some of the great Buggies in our group.

This will be in Old Downtown Rosenberg and I'll get more details if there is any interest.


Greetings Bill, I am contacting you to see if you may be interested in having your dune buggy friends attend our Spring Arts Festival April; 1st 2017 with the dune buggy vehicles. Its with the Rosenberg Main Street Festival and held downtown.
Perhaps Frank Martinez has reached out already because he and his group will be attending with their VW 's. He mentioned your name and told him we know each already.
At any rate, there is no fee involved and I thought your participation would make our event that much more special.

Sounds like a good chance to get the Buggy out and see the gang. We are up for it!

Bill, is there a web site or Facebook page for this event?
Might help peak some interest?

Here is the flier for the Rosenberg Spring Arts Festival. A friend of mine is organizing a Classic VW Gathering as part of the Festival. He called and asked me to invite my Buggy friends to participate with them. They will also be having live Country and Mariachi bands playing not far from where we will be setup. This will just be a gathering with no entry fees or awards. I'd sure love to have you join me in Old Downtown Rosenberg.

This may be on the radar. Marcia is always up to artsy stuff. I'll let you know when I get back from the ski trip

Bill, I see there is also a Spring Fling Festival with a car show in Rosenburg on the same weekend. Do you know if these two are part of the same event?

No, the Spring Fling and the VW Gathering are not the same. The Spring Fling is an open car show that goes on Saturday and Sunday, and takes place at the Knights of Columbus Hall on the edge of town. They do about 300 cars, and it's a nice show. But, this year I'm skipping it so I can do the VW Gathering.

In reference to Bill's comment, about the April 1st ARTS FESTIVAL, Rosenberg. Check out the Bay Area VW Club "facebook", a flyer was recently posted by David Saucier (our club president). Thanks
