Cruise to Pensacola Rides & Shine -
Sunday, February 1st @ 7AM

You’re setting your alarm clocks for an unholy Sunday hour because this is the revived and rebooted sequel to the classic Cars and Coffee event. Get your VWs cleaned and gassed up the night before!

Meet at Mobile Hwy Publix parking lot at 7:00 AM, we roll out at 7:30 AM - don’t be the one showing up just as we're leaving!

Once we’re all gathered, we’ll figure out lunch... or not - your choice.

Come join the fun, show off your ride, and keep the OSSi spirit alive, one cruise at a time. See you there, OSSi family!

Monroeville Mardi Gras Parade - Saturday February 7th

THIS EVENT POSTPONED, THIS IS THE NEW DATE!

Oil Slickers Society International has been invited to join Monroeville, AL's Mardi Gras parade on Saturday, February 7th! That's right, folks! Beads, boas, glitter, lights, and lots of screaming! We're rolling in, and we want YOU and your VW to come play. Decorate your cars because it's Mardi Gras, be flashy!

Think purple, green, gold, glitter, feathers, proper colored lights, fake jewels, or whatever screams that you're part of the season and not ashamed! Bonus points if it looks like your car was wetted and rolled over through a craft store! Meet-up details: 3:00 PM - at the Publix on Mobile, Hwy 3:30 PM - we're outta there! It's a trip, so come gassed up, topped off on oil, and ideally not leaking too much of anything too important. Bring tools, spare parts... If someone breaks down? We don't leave our people behind. That's The OSSI Way™!

It's gonna be ridiculous, joyful, LOUD! We promise laughs, fun, and and absolutely no judgment for costumes and decorations... unless you don't decorate!

Bring stuff to chuck! Beads, ramen, anything that doesn't hurt people! You can find beads and such at Walmart or visit Pensacola Parade People at 331 W Government St downtown.

More details dropping soon, parade info, route... we might even change the meeting location, please check the Facebook page for more info! So slap some tinsel on yer hood, tangle yer car up with lights, and come out and join OSSi for a fun event!
