ONE LAP OF THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE

Volvo Cars North America in conjunction with the Volvo Club of America will celebrate fifty years of Volvo Wagons (1953 to 2003) with a huge party in San Francisco on Sunday August 24th.

All Volvo owners are invited to bring their cars, classic, new, wagons, sedans and sports cars to Chrissy field in the Presidio at 7:30 AM sharp.

An amazing collection of Volvo wagons, from the earliest models right up through the new V70R will lead a large pack of Volvos onto the bridge.. The highway patrol will escort the parade and a helicopter will shoot photos of the bridge full of Volvos. After a quick turn around on the Marin side, we will return to Chrissy Field where Volvo will provide breakfast.

For more information on the event, please email Lee Cordner, president Volvo Club of America at Lee@vcoa.org

See you there!

It sounds like fun to me. Too far though.

There were some cynical posts in response to this earlier and I would just like to say that having been in the Police escorted convoy through Miami (was it two years ago already?) it was a blast. Especially when the cops pulled over the SUV driver who thought they were too important to wait for a convoy of Volvo's. And the other guy who got a ticket for cutting in!

Whatever the Corp. Volvo motive or penny pinching, the convoy sounds like fun to me.

here in Louisville we had a 1'st annual volvo rally/parade right at Derby time.It was spearheaded by Bernie Lubers (a local comedian who you can also hear him and his songs on morning radio shows like Bob & Tom)and it was great. some people decorated their bricks and we just made our way to a local park and made a couple of passes & called it a day.there was a wide variaty of bricks out of 12 or 13 that showed up and we even got some thumbs up.Bernie has done a song but i dont know if it's on a CD yet called `My 240 DL' and if you ever hear it you'll love it!
