Help Puppers at the Second Annual Woofs-burg Fundraiser

The Humane Society of Port Jervis/Deerpark is planning our Second Annual “Woofs-burg” VW/AUDI Fundraiser Car Meet. The car meet will be held on August 26th, 2018 at our shelter, located at 202 Rt. 209 Port Jervis, NY. We expect the event to allow VW owners to come together, talk about their cars, and enjoy an opportunity to visit the shelter’s animals. There will be food and drink available for purchase and all proceeds will go to support the shelter’s animals and programs that that help support the community.

It costs over $300,000 a year for our shelter to provide care for our animals as well as low cost services to the public. We receive no operating funds from The Humane Society of the United States and rely mainly on the support of our community. We are fortunate to have the amazing help of over 20 volunteers; who dedicate their time helping out at the shelter and coordinating the various events we hold during the year.

We are looking for businesses that will be interested in donating products or services that will be used to raffle off during the event. Monetary donations are also welcomed (made payable to The Humane Society of Port Jervis/Deerpark). Your contribution to this event is deductible and our Federal Tax Exempt number is 14-1459064 and in New York # EX111282.

Your donation will be greatly appreciated and acknowledged on all of our social media sites. We are also recognizing those businesses that donate, in our shelter Newsletter as well as in any local newspaper that we submizt our event information to. My number is (914)584-0271 and I will be glad to answer any questions you may have about this event.

Watch: The Stig Drives (nearly) Seven Generations of Golf GTI

With Volkswagen announcing “major” updates to the Golf, it seems an appropriate time to look back on what we’ve had so far. And who better to guide us through the rich history of the most popular European car ever made than Ben Collins, the former Stig? Some say he’s never met a GTI he doesn’t love, and that he can’t grow any of his own facial hair. All we know is … Ben Collins is actually a pretty solid presenter. Working his way through seven generations of the GTI (skipping over the Mk6) Collins tells us a little bit about each one and matches each mark to its corresponding facial hair craze. The Mk1 GTI for instance, is light and quick, but can lose traction under hard acceleration (in heavy rain). Despite that, Collins calls the Mk1 a “pure gem.” The Mk4, meanwhile, is a powerful return to form after the perhaps too sensible Mk3. Collins ends in the only way he could, with the Mk7, which accelerates faster than a Lamborghini Countach and is all kinds of wonderful. Watch, ...

Watch: The Story of the Ads that Made VW Big in America

The ads for the original Beetle are almost as famous and well-loved as the Beetle itself. Looking back now it’s easy to forget, though, just how easily things could have wrong. A new short from Dial M Films tracks the history of those early Volkswagen ads that sold America on the people’s car. The story, of course, begins with the visionary agency that made the ads: Doyle Dane Bernach (DDB). As a popular agency for Jewish products, no agency was more aware of the implications of Volkswagen, and no one, it seems, was more skeptical of the brand than DDB. “Remember Those Great Volkswagen Ads?” from Dial M Films on Vimeo . William Bernbach, though, was adament that the firm take the client, probably as a way of attracting other lucrative automotive clients. Saddled with a client that he didn’t want, art director Helmut Krone says in the film that he originally came up with ads that were all wrong. Krone tried to do what other manufacturers did and was intent on selling the Beetle ...

Watch: The Zerouno Cruis’n USA

ItalDesign is drumming up excitement for its new supercar based around the same 5.2-liter Audi V10 that powers the R8. Naturally, it hit the road for a cruise around California last week to celebrate Monterey Car Week. There isn’t much in the way of V10 noise—which is a real shame given the sound it makes—but you do at least get a good look at the car inside and out in this video. With a body made entirely of carbon fiber and designed to be as aerodynamic and light as possible, ItalDesign figures that it will be good for a 0-60 time of just 3.2 seconds. “We put it our best skills into the production of the first car,” said Massimo Bovi, head of pre-series production, when the Zerouno was first unveiled in Geneva earlier this year. “Using some of the finest productions methods and engaging our high-skilled workers.” The car features clever aero tricks gleaned from single-seat racing, like a y-duct up front to improve downforce and turn-in. Available in a number of trim levels, the...
