    The answers will vary region to region but if you have some time on your hands and your van is good for a long trip do consider the Nationals in Wisonsin and the pre Nats the weekend before. The Nationals is the ultimate van run each year that many vanners will prioritize over all others. If you have extra time on your hands you could even do Bakers before. You would get a chance to meet a good number of the members of Vintage-Vans as well as VCVC if you were able to pull off that trip.

    Thats some good shows- still need more that are available. Im planning on just taking off mostly -all summer to go to some of the best- with intersecting schedules if @ all possible. Love to do some fishing also & will be accompanied by daughter (teenager) so might also need some secic areas & maybe theme park & such between meets also. I also do like the small meets after / before the Nats. Time we traveled abit each summer as I do enjoy and now will have the time to do. Do the big meets (nats) usually move to different areas each year?? Thanx to all -i still need to know about some more meets -Thanx to all.

    The East coast Nat's moves every year, not sure on the West Coast Nat's. You West coasters should make it a point to go to the West Coast Nats. With all those Vans out there they only get 30-40 vans. The only way to keep it alive is to make it there. East Coast Nats gets 500-600 each year.

    Actually, it's not called the East coast nats.
    The National Truck-in is put on by different van clubs in different states each year. Sadly, it will never come west because there simply isn't enough vanners out this way.
    The West Coast Van Nationals is always held in King City Calif. Next year will be the 40th annual.
