According to Rob Pane and Jeremy Palomar from Niello Volkswagen: “It was six years ago that a simple idea of bringing the local Volkswagen community together was brought to a reality. It started as a car show with 55 vintage VW’s and has now grown into a three day event with over 400 cars, 1600 spectators and a charity to benefit by these efforts.
We could never have imagined that the love of Volkswagens would have created such an out pouring of support and as always, the VW community never disappoints. It is because of all of you that this car show has become an annual event and we have raised over $60,000.00 throughout the years to support the Ride to Walk Organization.
None of this would be possible without the support of the Niello Volkswagen staff and the many parents and volunteers from Ride to Walk, plus all of our countless sponsors – and for that, we thank you. All of us at Niello VW have spent countless hours together to ensure this event is the success you’ve come to expect.”
