Peterborough Volkswagen is celebrating its 50th anniversary in business this month! The business was started by Peter and Rita Eatson in 1969. Their son Michael is now the dealer principle and Michael and Heather’s son’s Eric and Graeme both work at the dealership as well. The dealership, located at 500 Towerhill Road, just off Chemong Road in the North end, will mark the occasion with an Octoberfest event on Saturday (October 5th). Called Volksfest, there will be live music, BBQ, vintage cars and more!
