Hi all,
just came across this website.We are currently in the process of restoring 3 vintage caravans and live in country NSW(Dubbo)
Can anyone point me in the direction of clubs etc in NSW that i can check into to join up with.
I have been reading about the Coledale run and am particuarly interested in it.I came across the phone number of Norm on this forum and have rang and booked for next year.
Any info much appreciated
George

Hi George We look forward to catching up with you at Coledale next year.... if not before . I live in an outer suburb of Newcastle have 3 vans and it looks like i am on the verge of buying a fourth. I am not aware of any Vintage Caravan Clubs in NSW , or anywhere else in Australia for that matter. If you wanted to join a club then i suggest you subscribe to one of the later model caravan clubs that we often read about in Caravanning magazines. There is just over 700 subscribers to this website but we are definitely not a club. Just a happy bunch of people who have been drawn together by our common interest in old vans. There is no president, treasurer or secretary. Just 2 administrators one of which is the Mark taylor from W.A who was the instigator in getting this site up and running. Of that 700 there is probably 60 or so regular contributors to this forum and probably about the same number ( and there partners) all around Australia who regularly participate in vintage caravan related events like trips away, displays , etc. Look forward to seeing some pictures of your vans. There is instructions elsewhere on this site on how to load photos from a program called "Photobucket". Regards Reddo

Yes mate All getogethers etc are posted here in "Runs and events" The next event that is probably within striking distance of Dubbo is NRMA motorfest in Macquarie st Sydney on australia Day 2008. You dont have to be an NRMA member to participate. More info here vintagecaravans.proboards30.com/index.cgi?board=runevent1&action=display&thread=1190337332Or simply check under "runs and events " section where you posted your original post. There is also a planned national gathering of vinrage vans in Mt Gambier next March. Info on this is also listed here under" runs and events". Might take a little while for you to get used to the forum layout but it is relatively simple to follow..... Hey, it has to be for me to be able to understand it Reddo
