Once again Jingle Bugs Rock will be held at Old Town's Shopping, Dining, & Entertainment Complex located in beautiful Kissimmee, Florida one mile east of I-4 on U.S. Hwy. 192. Last year was just about rained out but we still had a good turn-out and one of the best day’s ever! We had more cars decorated for the holidays, we had great club participation, and more toys brought than any other year. As a matter of fact, we actually filled two 7 ton Marine trucks by the end of the day. And as usual, we had plenty of gifts to hand out at the end of the day along with Santa who showed up just in time to cruise in the bright red convertible brought by David Maus Volkswagen.
This year’s event will be held on December 04, 2011, one week earlier than usual and is planned to run from 12:00 to 6:00pm. We have plenty of room for those who want to have a swap meet or sell VW related items and of course you can bring that car you have for sale as well. This is a charity event and entry for show participants is simple; bring a new unwrapped toy. Of course we encourage everyone to bring as many toys as possible for the children and there will be a small fee for those selling parts, etc..
