History of the Volks Folks

The Scenic City Volks Folks were formed in early 1998 by a small group of Volkswagen enthusiasts in the Chattanooga, Tennessee area to share the joys of Volkswagen ownership. Part of that joy is the fellowship of other individuals who share similar interests. Traveling to car shows, picnics, and campouts are some of the things we do as a club. Village Volkswagen of Chattanooga mainly sponsored our club from its beginning by getting us organized in the early stages as well as helping us financially.

The dealership lobby served as our monthly meeting location for a little over two years. The club grew and we became too large to meet at the dealership. We ventured out on our own, but we never forgot the genuine support shown to us by Village Volkswagen. Although we met elswhere, Village Volkswagen is still our main sponsor as a club. Without their help, we would not be the club we are today.

Bug-a-Palüza...Not Just a Show

Since 1998, the club has held an annual Volkswagen car show in the Chattanooga area. All proceeds of our shows have gone to help multiple charitable organizations, including the Chattanooga Area Food Bank, and the Shrine Ladies Helping Hands. Each year the number of attdees and spectators has increased, resulting in our giving the Food Bank over 5 tons of canned food and hundreds of dollars.

Since 2007, the Friends of the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Greater Chattanooga have ran the concession stand and and manned the spectator gates and those proceeds went directly to the Ronald McDonald House Charities. Each year since, we have raised over $10,000 for the Ronald McDonald House.
