BNNTA VW campi g weekend is cancelled...

I'm not sure if the word got passed here on the Vintagebus list or on the
Type2 list, but about a week and a half ago I had to cancel the 35th BNNTA
VW camp out weekend due to the increased severity of the continuing
pandemic. I figured that the USACE Rangers were going to eventually close
the campground anyway, and sure enough,  a few days ago they called to say
that that was about to happen so I'm glad that I got more warning out to
everyone. Please pass the word along to anyone you know who might not know
that the event is cancelled as no one will be there and the campground
gates will be locked.

Don't fret though!  We're already getting jazzed to host the 35th BNNTA VW
camping weekend again under better circumstances next Labor Day weekend in
2021.  Check our updated website at:  www.bnnta.com

Thank you so much for your understanding, and please enjoy your old VWs
while staying healthy and happy!
