You can even edit the calendar without being a member so let your friends or organizers of VW-friendly events know! OSSi doesn't pick favorites and serve slices of the pie, WITH OSSi YOU GET THE WHOLE PIE!

And if you're interested in a OSSi Patriot Pride flag, they are for sale on the website NOW! They are special order, and include FREE SHIPPING, too! Designed for true club members who want to show their patriotism and display their colors loud and proud at any VW event, cruise, gathering or outside your home or in your workshop... for the 4th of July, Patriot Pride month, or any national US holiday!

These flags are fully compliant for special holiday use according to the Official Oil Slickers Society International Flag Usage and Conduct Rules. Just remember, it should not fly higher nor in substitution for the stars and stripes! RESPECT ALWAYS!
