4 weeks to go and everyone is talking about Bathurst...
FRIDAY UPDATE -
Over thirty vans have now pre-registered via SMS to 0434-350-407 - name, van and club (if any). There is no limit to the amount of vans that can meet in Bathurst, but our quota for the cheap camping has been reached. Add the word "waitlist" when you pre-register and we'll inform you if there has been a cancellation. Alternatively, if you have not pre-registered, its time to ring friends or relatives in the area, or click on the link below for reasonably priced motels - many within a one minute drive of the showground.
We now have vans from Sundowners, Wasteland, Sunstate, BUGA, FE/HR ACT, mySandman, Majestic, East Coast Vanners, plus many more independent van enthusiasts from SouthernCrossVans.com
We've also had plenty of assistance and input from Sundowners, Majestic, BUGA and mySandman - thank you for your enthusiasm.
If our memory is correct, the Bathurst Van Meet should be the fifth time in a year where 20 or more vans will be gathered together - a feat not seen since the 1980's. From WA's Pinjarra Van Nationals, Majestic's Albury Van In, Sydney's All Holden Day, the VCV's State Van Titles (2011 & expecting 2012), all participants should be congratulated on their efforts to get vans back on the road again.
Unlike the last report, all six percentages have been updated, not just five. Although we're still continuing to put in 109% effort
77% from NSW/ACT, 10% from VIC, 13% from QLD
74% Holdens/Bedfords, 26% Fords/Transits
71% Club members, 29% Independent
Another update next week
Bathurst Motels - Wotif
Less than 2 weeks to go - Over 30 vans so far...

UPDATE:
After a generous offer from one of the club members, we are now providing a "sausage sizzle" at Mt Panorama Winery. For catering purposes, you need to pre-register before the end of October.
Preliminary schedule and more details on www.SouthernCrossVans.com
Only taking one van now, as we have to go to a funeral again, (R's uncle this time) on Sat morning in Dubbo would have been far better to have had it during the week. Will just arrive later than planned.
HZ Jasmine Yellow Windowless Sandman, now being driven everywhere and is finished!
HZ Madeira Red Windowless sandman now Sold to Bigrob
HX Mandarin Red Sandman Ute finished, and club registered
1979 HZ malachite windowless van with 308 5spd, all chromed up and shiny finished and named "The Player"

For those attending the Victorian State Van Titles have a great weekend and travel safely.
Bathurst next weekend.
Majestics Re-union later in November
Sundowners "Invitational Van Display" at the V8 Finale, end of November
Vanning is like "porn & sex" - looks good online, but its great in real life.
So who's booked in for Bathurst next weekend??
We will be there, camping at the Showground, as long as we can get a tent during the week (would be a tad squishy with Tess in the back of the van!).
See you there Haley and Dean, and Damo my contact you re travel together
