Here's an updated the link to the show: http://nycvolkswagentrafficjam.com/
Pre-registration is required to enter your VW in the show and bring it onto the island but anyone can attend the show as a spectator via the free ferry boats. This show is very unique and has become one of my favorites given the awesome surroundings and relaxed hang out vibe. Bring the family, eat a nice picnic lunch, and check out the show and all Governors Island has to offer for the afternoon. You won't be disappointed.
CJVWS is having a group caravan into NYC from the Basking Ridge area that morning, so anyone traveling along that route at about 7:00 am or so that wants to join us PM me for more details. _________________ www.cjvws.com

Friends,
Does the NYC show draw many spectators? I'm thinking about becoming a vendor, and trying to decide if it's worth the 6 hour car trip.
Thanks! _________________ Check out my Etsy store!
