| Has anyone been able to access the bug bash website? It seems that it's down or the host is not responding. |

O yes my friend it is a long drive lol, but once a year we try to get out of the LA area to try new shows, last year we drove to Sacramento for the Bugorama show, had a blast there meeting new people and seeing all the cool cars. If you see us there stop by and say hi so you can check out the cars.      |

Will do, I'll be driving my mango bus. And I know what you mean about getting out of L.A., I grew up in L.A., but had to get the hell out of there, and moved up here.  . I love bug-o too, great show, also like that there's 2 per year!

I'm having a hard time keeping up with all of the e-mails and phone calls inquiring about Bug Bash. Pre-registrations are pouring in at www.californiabugbash.com/preregistersave.html The deadline to pre-register is rapidly approaching (midnight on Sunday June 16)
I know there are groups from all over California, Oregon and Nevada that are getting ready for the trip. For those of you not familiar with the area, Antioch can get hot in the summer, so please remember the EZ Up/Umbrella/Hat and sunblock.
No worries about running out of food, as this year there will be 2 different vendors - Big Kahuna Sandwiches and DasWienerHaus. Both will be stocked up and ready to feed everyone. As a bonus, both food vendors are also Volkswagen enthusiasts!

Yup, grew up the San Fernando Valley, left when I was around 22. I applaud you guys for going to further shows, good stuff! Looking forward to it here too, don't forget to bring easy ups if you have them, it might be kinda of warm, but you L.A. guys are probably used to it.
