VW Nationals feedback

Well the 25th VW Nationals has come and gone. What were your thoughts on the day? What did you like or dislike? What suggestions or comments do you have? Any ideas for what we can change, or add, to make the show even better next year? To start you off, here are some of my thoughts: * The peer judging worked very well and seemed popular with almost everyone. It greatly speeded up the entry to the show and got rid of the long and frustrating queues to get in. * Just having First Prize for each category greatly speeded up the presentation. In previous years it seemed to drag on for ages when people were ready to go home. This year it seemed just about right. * What did you think of having the winners' cars showing on the TV as they were announced? I thought it was fantastic - well done Dave Carter, great job. * People need to pay the courtesy of NOT starting their VWs and departng until after the trophy presentation is over. It was sometimes hard to hear with engines in the background. Please wait 15 more minutes. * Amazingly there were no New Beetles entered this year. Nor any Amarok/Tiguan/Touareg. I think these categories should still continue next year. * I don't know what happened to the Engine Blow - that will have to be fixed for next year. * It was good having the band play out the back, but the music between their sets was too loud. * I thought swap meet stalls were down in number - maybe a cheaper price could be offered for swappers prepared to set up outside (ie not under cover)? * The police siren Beetle was way too loud and intrusive. * My daughter thought the kids' rides were 'pathetic' this year. Just one little ferris wheel and a jumping castle. Surely the contractors we employ can do better than that. * Will anyone put their hand up to organise a hubcap toss or similar for next year? Or will someone donate an old junk Beetle for the kids to paint? * The toilets under the grandstand were filthy and stinky - the grounds need to do better. Any other comments?
