It seems as though fabulous prizes is a good incentive for the people to drag their Volkswagens out of their garages and drive them to their place of business, as well over a hundred entries filled our mailboxes soon after June 21. This year, fellow VW enthusiast Bill Berckman took charge of the event, converting the main page of his Web site to help promote the contest. In response, we received a bounty of prizes for each of our three winners pictured below. If you don't see your picture on these pages, better luck next year. Read the following announcement to see how you can enter next time. Contests, Cash and Prizes:
To keep you up on the goings on around VW Trends' office, we'd like to announce the 5th-Annual VW Trends Drive Your Volkswagen to Work Day Photo Contest!
