Roadside Friendship

Back in the 90's there was a VW club in Cali that gave out a little paper back book to members to keep in your glove compartment that had "on the road travel" member contacts. People and shops in different city's offing tools, parts, a tow, a bed, a place to park, mechanic shops, a meal, or just a friend and club member to meet for lunch and a conversation rolling through town.

Does anyone know the name of the Club and if they still exist??? I just bought my bus back last year after selling it 17 years ago, and been out of the  VW community and have not owned a air-cooled VW for at least 8 years. I would love to get my hands on another one of those books. I'm looking to camp and travel a lot with my bus this time around, and love to know I got a community to assist if needed.

    Hey, BIG thanks, Kris! That site also led me to find this one that seems to have a lot more members in California.

    Yeah Jim, I'm pretty sure it was the L.I.M.B.O club that offered the booklet to it's members. http://www.limbobus.org/phpBB4/portal.php. But I don't think they do that anymore. The link provided by Kris is the way to go.
