hey russ, awesome that you're thinking about going to volksfest...its a great weekend on the island and imho one of the best shows ever!!
yup, its the july 9th/10th weekend. not too many details available now, but i put a post up on the vvwc site asking some questions about host hotels, discount rates, times & locations of events. i'm sure they'll get that info up asap.
this year will most likely be like last year...pancake breakfast saturday morning, cruise saturday afternoon, %@? :cool:$&# saturday night, big show & swap sunday!
mainlanders going over usually meet at mcd's in tswasssen on saturday around 6am and convoy for the 7am ferry!
we'll post more info as it happens!
it's going to be another awesome year, hope to see lots of locals there!! :) :cool:

I do know their meetings are held at Hotel Zed.
It's a funky 70's flashback hotel with two splits for shuttles
Dunno if it's a host hotel, but definately a great place to stay!

I agree with Silas , I think this is the best show Locally, Love it and never miss it, Zed is host hotel,

latest post/info from the vvwc site...
Host hotel should be Hotel Zed. Not sure about the rates at the moment. Times and location will be very similar to recent years.
We are having a meeting next Monday where we will finalize all the details. After the meeting I will make a post to confirm everything :)
