THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR EMAIL'S AND POSITIVE IMPUT ABOUT MY WEB SITE. I GREATLY APPRECIATE IT.


MANY OF YOU HAVE ALSO ASKED HOW LONG THE BUG PATROL HAS BEEN AROUND.

FIRST I WILL BEGIN BY SAYING THAT THE BUG PATROL WAS A CULMINATION OF IDEAS BY THREE VW ENTHUSIASTS
APPROXIMATELY 15 YEARS GONE BY NOW.

IT BEGAN WITH PAUL & MORGAN,
(BEST FRIENDS) AND (ME, debgdr).

I HAD OLD BOZWORTH MY 1972 SUPER BEETLE UNDER CONSTRUCTION AND IT WAS THAT VW BUG THAT REALLY SET THE SEED
FOR OUR CLUB.

ONE HOT SUMMER EVENING THE BOYZZZ & I WERE MAKING ALL KINDS OF PLANS FOR OUR BUGS AND FUTURE BUGS AND OUR
CLUB.

BUT FIRST WE HAD TO COME UP WITH THE NAME FOR THE CLUB BEFORE WE COULD PROCEED WITH ANY FUTURE PLANS.
AFTER ALL WHAT GOOD IS A CLUB WITHOUT A NAME.

WE MUST HAVE COME UP WITH ONE HUNDRED DIFFERENT NAMES BEFORE “THE BUG PATROL” WAS BORN. BUT IT WAS A VERY
FITTING TITLE FOR THE THREE OF US AND IT ROLLED OFF THE TONGUE VERY WELL INDEED.

IT WAS IN THE YEAR 2004 WHEN A   YOUNG MAN APPROACHED ME AT THE LOCAL CHEVRON WITH MANY QUERIES ABOUT A VW
PROJECT BAJA HE HAD RECENTLY ACQUIRED. (IT WAS VERY CLEAR HE TOO ALSO HAD BEEN BITTEN BY THE BUG. THE
VOLKSWAGEN BUG.)

I QUICKLY DUBBED HIM, “BAJA DAN” HIS ENTHUSIASM AND DESIRE TO LEARN AS MUCH AS HE COULD ABOUT WORKING ON HIS
BUG WAS QUITE CLEAR AND HE WAS MECHANICALLY INCLINED AND WOULD DO VERY WELL WITH PROPER INSTRUCTIONS.

HIS GRANDMOTHER HAD ALWAYS PLAYED A VERY IMPORTANT ROLE IN HIS LIFE AND SPARKED NEW LIFE AND VIGOR INTO “THE
BUG PATROL” AND IT WAS HER THAT SUGGESTED WE SHOULD SEE WHAT IT TAKES TO GET INTO THE WINDSOR PARADE. AND
WITH THAT SHE WAS ON A MISSION AND BECAUSE OF ALL OF HER EFFORTS WE HAVE BEEN PARTICIPATING IN THE PARADE
EVER SINCE AND WE HOPE YOU WILL PARTICIPATE WITH US TOO.
The Bug Patrol will be rolling again in the
Coastal & River Run Saturday October
