This is the same posting in the "Events" Section of 914 World. The Admins. advised posting in the "World" section with the hope that we can drum up more 914 participants. Perhaps the Admins can highlight in a color?

The Central Jersey VW Society is having its 10th annual "All Air Cooled Gathering" in Flanders NJ on Sunday September 21, 2014. As in the the past I'm inviting all 914 owners, along with any model air cooled Porsche to show their pride and joy. Last year we had over 300 air cooled cars (mostly VW's with the exception of a total of 19, 914's, 911's and 356's). The venue is really unique in that its held at a private German Social Club with a beautiful full grass soccer field (actually several fields) along with German food and beer on tap in the 30's style clubhouse. This is a charity event where a portion of the proceeds will help Operation Jersey Cares, an organization that provides support and care for current and past NJ Combat Veterans. There will also be some parts vendors (mostly VW) and prizes being raffled to raise money along with a DJ for music entertainment. Also this year "Dyno Don" from California will MC the event. For those that don't know, he is California's popular VW personality. This is truly a family event with activities and contests for kids and adults alike.

Last year's Air Cooled Porsche turnout was a record 19 cars. The word is getting out in the Porsche Club that this is a fun event for both car owners ad their families. Judging is very low key with an emphasis on allowing every car on the field no matter what level of preparation. So, don't worry if your undercarrage is dirty (sorry CW's). We want this event to be fun for the whole family and consider it perfect for those who are looking for a nice day out with German beer and food and to help out with a good cause.

Awesome day today. Record # of cars (380), record spectator attendance plus 250 people camping & partying on Saturday night. Had seven 914s show up to make the class break out from all the other Porsches. Congrats to Big Len for another 1st place. Pics to come soon.
