SPRING BACK 2021

-
Vans on the run will once again host our annual event at Knox County Fairgrounds,in Mt Vernon, Ohio. May 7-9, 2021. This last year has been tough on vanning,but we are getting back into the swing of things. There will be ample room to distance, and our sat meal will be "to go" so you can decide where to comsume it. Either with friends of back at your own campsite. Live music and activities as usual. Hoping to see you there!

Hi, new vanners here. We have an ‘84 Skyline Conversion E150 36k miles. I heard about this event from a guy at a car show in Circleville, Ohio. We live in Lancaster. We would like to participate in the can show on Saturday and wondered if you could provide specifics about start and end times for the show; as well as admission, etc. thanks! Nick

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.

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
