THEBUGNUT.com to help June Jitter Bug

Founded in 1986 by a collaboration of dedicated Volkswagen enthusiasts, the June Jitter Bug has continued to grow in size and popularity into becoming the largest VW Show in Ontario. For years the members of the Niagara Volks Folks car club have put in countless hours in preparation for this show. In 2006 the show was taken over and headed by the staff at John's Bug Shop. Since the beginning this show has been run non-profit and relies on donations from dedicated sponsors. As well, the show has always had a food drive for many different food banks. Our main goal is to provide a venue for Volkswagen Car Show enthusiasts of all ages. This year the June Jitter Bug is going to be getting some help from THEBUGNUT.com and Rood's Media in an effort to add some new life into the show.
