I thought this was pretty COOL ...

The organizers of the Texas Classic seek out and choose a person every year for a very special Lifetime Achievemnt Award.
It is given to someone recognized in the VW Community who, through their dedication, commitment and hard work, has taken the hobby to new and higher levels.
This year they chose Dean Kirsten for this Prestigious Award.

So, Congratulations Deano for all the years of service and hard work!
Hip Hip HOORAY!
