The 8th Annual All Air Cooled Gathering will be held on September 16, 2012 at the German Sports and Swim Club in Flanders, New Jersey. As in the the past I'm inviting all 914 owners, along with all other air cooled Porsche owners to show their pride and joy. Last year we had 300 air cooled cars (mostly VW's with the exception of 9 Porsches). 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 at the "club house" bar. 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 a swap area (mostly VW) and prizes being raffled to raise money along with a live band for entertainment. "Dyno Don" from California will MC the event. For those that don't know, he is California's popular VW personality.

The show car awards are custom designed for this event only. We are going 3 deep in each class. Since the Air Cooled Porsche turnout has been light in the past, we usually group all Porsches into one class.

This is real low key event with a very unstructured judging protocol (I'm the Porsche judge). 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, German beer and food and to help out with a good cause.

Here is the Website with directions, previous show pictures and listing of the day's events.

I just checked out the forecast for this coming weekend and the weather looks great. No excuses now. Let's bring on the '14's!

I'm happy to report that we had a record turnout for the 8th Annual All Air Cooled Gathering of 323 cars! The weather was perfect and everyone had a great time.

Our own Tod Warden (tod914) garnered 1st place in the Porsche Class with his 1974 914. Congratulations Tod! He had some stiff competition with several 356's but his preparation was by far the best.

Thanks to all those that attended.
I hope to see more 914's come out next year. See you then.
