We want to thank our parents for the love & support given to us. We want to thank our children and significant others for putting up with us. And we wish to thank our brother, Ron, for all he does to support our business and the VW hobby. And of course, all of our dear friends we have made thru our love of v-dubs! Nothing would be possible without all of you!

   When Larry's Off Road Center started 32 years ago, Marty and Larry never dreamed that they would still be doing what they love 32 years later. BUGJAM started as a gathering at Larry's Off Road and as the show grew, it traveled. They decided a couple years back to bring BUGJAM back home. They closed down the street and opened up the shop, and the show began.  

  The turn-out was amazing; hundreds of people and over 70 Volkswagen projects attended the show. The whole street in front of the shop and even down the road was covered with Volkswagens and Volkswagen projects. We had a full crowd this year at the shop, ranging from our new customers to our customers from back in the day. It was great to get to spend time with everyone. The whole crowd participated in painting Larry's bus, by the end of the day it was decorated with pictures, hand prints, and other crazy colorful designs! 

  BUGJAM 2009 was truly a great show! We had so much fun talking with customers, and visiting with those who came from near and far to see the Larry's crew. Thank you for sticking behind Larry's Off Road Center for all of these years and for allowing us to keep doing what we love.
