Elemental Success
Well Essex's contribution to the VW show season started off with a corker of a day at Elemental #5 with many of the Splitterz membership lending a hand on the day and turning out in force to support the show and help it raise over £2,500 for Essex Air Ambulance. Thanks to all who turned out and did the club proud.
Next stop Battlesbridge 14-16 May 2010
Another good established local show in Essex again with a minimum donation fo £1,000 to Essex Air Ambulance
Prebooking is available until the 1st of May and can save you £10.00 on the weekend on-the-gate price if you get your act together in time.

I am sorting out a Mystery Tour for the Club.
It is on Saturday 10th October with a campover at a campsite till Sunday 11th October.
We will start in a pub in Broxted at midday with a light sandwich lunch paid for out of Club funds, once we are all together and content we shall set off on the mystery tour to the campsite approx. 60 miles from the pub.
Camping for the night is £15 per vehicle or tent not per person. Showers and toilets are available on site.
Further details can be found in the Meets and Events section of the Forum
Please feel free to sign up if you consider yourself to be part of the club, i need to let the pub and campsite know a ball park figure of how many people are coming by the end of this week!

BBQ 2009
Just wanted to say thank you to all those who turned up again this year, and congratulations to Spooky Paul for winning 'Best of BBQ' with his beetle!
The weather was again on our side and the day went off without a problem thanks to Technohippy, Barky, Gee & Family, Slammedresto and GnG making the effort to get things sorted.
Hopefully we will see some of you at one of our meets in Bishop Stortford, Chelmsford or Cambridge!
There is also the possibility of a mystery tour with camping in October in the pipeline, check out the forum if your intrigued to find out some more!!

Splitterz BBQ 2009
It's that time of year again!
Yes the Splitterz BBQ is rapidly approaching, although we have been keeping it a secret!
The BBQ will be held on Sunday 2nd August 2009 from about 1pm at the Horse and Groom in Galleywood, Chelmsford (Click Here for a Location Map)
All sausages and burgers cooked on the BBQ will be £1
Drinks are available inside the pub.
There will be a show and shine and a raffle.
This is a nicely situated little gathering that the whole family will enjoy, the kids are safe to run around as cars haven't actually reached this part of galleywood yet, they still use the horse and cart!
We look forward to seeing you there!
Splitterz VW & Air-Cooled Club.

BBQ Aftermath
Well what can i say, but thank you to all those of you who gave up your Sunday to come and enjoy the BBQ, it was a great day and many people seemed to enjoy themselves.
Congratulations to all those of you who won a Trophy on the day, made by Danny of Dubz-by-Dan.
Thank you to all those of you who helped on the day, namely Gee for getting stuck in with the BBQ, without folks cooking, the BBQ would have failed!!
Thanks also to GnG for organising the raffle, it went down a storm!!
I would like to do more of a report but to be honest i didn't see all that much of everything on the day as i was running around most of the time!! however i understand that we had over 100 volkswagens parked up on the green, 33 people paid to enter the show and shine, but i reckon there were a few more as organisation for payment went out of the window at one point lol.
And lastly thank you to all of you for not dropping litter, all that was found was a couple of pint glasses in the long grass, and a bit of litter that was probably there before we arrived.
Lets see if there will be a next year!!

Splitterz BBQ
So its on Sunday!!!!!!!
Starts at 2pm till we get kicked out
Please approach the pub from The Eagle end rather than the Running Mare end as this will help ease folk into the parking area etc
Show and Shine will be £2 on the day for as many cars as we can fit in, Top 10 cars on display and a BEST OF BBQ award, unfortunately no class awards, however you will get a hand made trophy, made by our sponsor Dubz-by-Dan
Raffle - Star Prize is a Free service for a VW by our sponsor Dubz-by-Dan (www.dubz-by-dan.co.uk)
All BBQ Food - £1 per burger / veggie burger / sausage / veggie sausage
Cake - Its Free, not many things in this world are free, but there is a moneybox on the table for any donations towards the cost of the cake, and please be sensible and leave enough for everyone
Drinks are available in the pub, please only drink beverages bought from the pub, all range of drinks available, soft and not so soft
Please remember not to block the through road, this is a public highway and if we block it the police may become involved and that won't be good for you or us.
But most of all, chill out, have a few burgers and enjoy a relaxing day in the sun.
Cheers
