Seems there are some of you who are having problems finding info on our blog. Most pertinent info is in the flyer. You'll find the flyer down the page on the left side. If it is to small to read, click on the image and it will expand to full screen. You can also blow it up bigger if you wish. Information not available at the time we printed the flyer, will be added periodically here on the left side in a new post. Questions that we are asked repeatedly will be posted in the FAQ section on the right side of the blog. Vendor, trophy sponsor,bible adds, and contact info is also listed in the right hand column. You can ask questions, make constructive suggestions ,or comments, 2 ways. At the bottom of each post, on the left side there is a place for comments. Click on it and you can leave a question or comment that will be seen by anyone who wishes to read the comment section. We will post an answer or response there also, where everyone will see it. On the right side you will find the Vans On The Run email address. You can send a question or comment there and it will be private. Some one will get a response back as soon as we can. If that dosn't help you can call the phone numbers listed in the flyer and you can reach the pres. V.P., or treasurer and we will be happy to help. As the posts pile up they will expand to multiple pages. You can find the older posts at the bottom by clicking on the "older posts" icon. Even tho we have been working on this for nearly a year, the 39th Nats is not finished and in the can. We are way ahead of where we thought we would be but, are still working on a lot of large and small details and every day someone comes up with a new idea for making this event even more fun. Our members are working hard and enjoying all the preparations. That's how I know this will be a fun event for everyone. I have posted a couple photos of the grounds for those of you who haven't been there yet. These show the grandstand area. We are using the big stage out front, and will have a second stage set up behind the grandstand. There will be a lot of music. the area behind the stands will also have the vendor area. That building in the center of the photo, is one of 3 restroom buildings with showers.
We will be posting more photos as we get closer to the event

Stay tuned!

Why are we doing this?

With the new year, we are quickly closing in on the 39 th National Truck-in. I've had several people ask, why in the world would a group our size, take on something like the National Truck-in? Well ,that is a real kicker of a question. As you may know Vans On The Run hosted the 16 th Nationals in 1988. Shortly there after, we had some people ask if we would do it again, and at least one of our previous members replied" WHEN PIGS FLY".. We are 23 years removed from that event and we figured it was time to do our share again. Vanning has slowly gotten smaller over that period and the number of van clubs and groups willing to take on a task this important to vanning has dwindled to a hand full. There are still many vanners who enjoy the vans and the vanners , but unless some one is willing to put forth the effort to keep it going, there wont be anything for us to do anymore. We have hosted Spring Back,since 1978. Putting on an event each year, has been the catalyst for ke

The weekend of May 7,8,9 2010, was the 30th time we have done Spring Back, our van event. The weekend started out fine, with warm weather on Thursday when we first arived at the Knox County fairgrounds.We proceded to set up the tarp covers and get the gate ready to start letting in the vans.Before we could get that done there were 35 vans showed up to get that favorite spot. On friday we proceded to set up the stage and the game areas.The skies started to cloud over while 70 more vans were rolling in. Late friday evening a storm came through that rivaled Katrina. We lost all out tarp covers,and a few other things. The winds continued to blow all day Saturday also. We ended up having many of our activities inside, including the van show. At least it wasnt raining. We served up dinner for the entire truck-in that evening,and the party rolled into the night with the band and trick or treet to go with the holloween theme, Including the "who can build the biggest fire" competition
