Dave, Francie, Dan, Linda, and Annie all cruised together to the Rakers Summer Car Show at Memorial Field in Port Townsend. It was a cool day with rain in the forecast, but that didn't stop us! Dave's bus has awnings, so no excuses! We rolled in about 9:30 and got our goody bags and registration packets. We parked in our spots and set ourselves up.
This beautiful cream colored Beetle belongs to Carol Wise. She's not in our club.......yet. She saw Annie's car at last year's Rakers show and liked the engine. She got Denny's name and he restored her car with a new engine and paint. Sweet! Carol is a Raker and helped put on the show. She made sure there was a VW award category this year!
Annie and Linda did the Ladies Poker Run for the second time. Last year they won first and second place. This year Annie got third place and her award was a fun popcorn/movie bowl. Herbie the Love Bug was one of the DVD's in the bowl! Annie's knowledge of completely useless information does pay off sometimes.
And the award for Best VW goes to...................guess! Just guess! I'll give you a hint. It's an awesome green bus with awnings on it. Dave is now banned from any future shows. Because Annie said so and she's the president. Ha ha! Annie's just kidding. Sort of.
All in all, the weather wasn't too bad. It did rain, but we just hung out under the bus awnings and had a great time. Talked to a lot of fun people about our VW's and saw a lot of other beautiful cars. It was really a well run show. We could have won an award for car club with the most attendees, but Dream Machines won that one. Maybe next year........RIGHT?!?!?!
