Here is a copy of the flyer. Best I could do; it got kind of beat up from
being folded up in my trash file.

And for the record... this is NOT my show... just researched it trying to find
more info on whats going on.
Very poor taste in my opinion having a show on the same day in the same small
town. Most new shows get chastised for having a show pop up the same weekend as
another established show that may be 300 miles away let alone in the same town.
yikes.

Yep, I looked at some of the photos on the Foul Air FB page and did a little
research on what is going on. Just my opinion: but the concept stinks; and the
title FOUL really seems to apply to your concept and most of the cars shown.

Here's more info... Calling it an "Overflow Show"
http://www.eurekaspringscarshow.com/

"This alternative is for two main reasons, and is in no way considered or meant
to be a competition to the Eureka Springs VW Show.The reasons are:
1) - There is just not enough room for all the enthusiasts who come to the
lovely town of Eureka Springs.
2) - The town needs the revenue and treats every visitor so well. It's a shame
that so many people no longer come to this town because of the lack of show
space.
While we embrace that competitive car shows are necessary, our venue and
atmosphere is so much different. We are working together with the long running
show to encourage the high caliber of Volkswagens that enters to continue to do
so. Our show is more for daily drivers, campers, rat rods, or more simply, not
for trophy hoarders or trailer queens. Your car doesn't have to have shiny
paint or mirrors under the chassis to have fun at this show! Our show welcomes
air and watercooled Volkswagens, as well as other makes of German cars. "
interesting.

I haven't seen the flyer but you're saying that Foul Air is hosting a VW show
in the SAME town on the SAME day in the SAME town of Eureka? whoa... can you
post a photo of the flyer... very curious now...
Are they helping sponsor the Eureka Springs show, maybe they're advertising the
Eureka show to help spread the word I dont know.
looked at their FB page and website, , dont see any events listed...

What's the deal going on in Eureka. Got a flyer dropped in my panel van at
Dub Splash that indicates a show sponsored by Foul Air VW Klub that appears to
be competing with the normal Eureka show. That's nasty. In all my days of VW
shows, and that's a lot; have never heard of a club putting on a show in direct
competition with another.
The flyer indicates a cookout Friday night at Pig Trial Harley-Davidson, show
on Saturday with parade to follow with awards to be given out Sunday morning.
How are they going to have two parades at the same time in Eureka.
I would like someone to explain what the hell is happening. If it is what it
appears I would strongly suggest a boycott of everything associated with Foul
