I took the liberty of posting this on the GA Dubs website. 
Looks like a few are wanting to come up from the ATL.
I wonder if we should put this on the Samba?
Just a thought.
Wanna see what they are saying:

FeeBee does not have a GPS but I'm sure can find it :'(eventually. Several people here at work have expressed a interest in participating so maybe if I get lost they can find me pretty quick. I'm directionally challenged ;D everyone has their vices...

I want to thank everyone for the effort that has been made to put this event together on such a short notice. I have a meeting with the Director of Public Relations of VW next Thursday, and will try to get info on the grand-openning of the plant next year. That's when we'll contact Samba and plan the event of events. THINK BIG!!

Watched the 12pm news today and saw the videos of the opening drive and saw some cool vdubs. Not as many as there should have shown in the video but go to the channel 9 and channel 12 web sights and the videos are different.
