From the Organization:
"The show started off as an "overflow" for the Eureka Springs Volkswagen Show on the same weekend since their event space was limited. Soon after, we opened it up to all German manufactures to help bring more people into the town of Eureka Springs. Our goal to help expose Eureka Springs, Arkansas, to the rest of the world by creating a fun, German car enthusiast event in the Ozarks."
