I hate to be so dumb, but exactly what and where are forum rallys??
Here's a section devoted just to the Forum Rallies...check it out & see if there is one upcoming near you. If not, maybe if you post a thread showing you interest there will enough interest to get one going!
There's also pictures & dialog about past Forum Rallies...
You will see, they are usually a group planned event (no host) so you don't have to be 'in charge' just get a discussion going...all it really takes is a suggestion to get the fun times started.
"If you plan it, they will come!"

Does the Vintage Parking section have both 30 amp and 3 amp service options? Or if you elect the 30 amp service do you have to park elsewhere? Thanks!
I suspect that the layout will be somewhat dependent on layout of the parking site and registration, but may be similar to the 2005 Rally. At the 2005 Rally, the 30 AMP and 3 AMP sections were in separate fields approximately .25 mile apart -- with each area having a Vintage parking section.
I was parked in the 30 AMP section at the 2005 Rally and had a great time. It was such a relief to be able to run my air conditioner that I pre-registered for the 30 AMP section at the 2006 Rally.

Now that I have done a little more research, I have 2 stupid newbie questions.
1) What is the VAC?
2) Do you have to join the WBCCI to attend a ralley?
Thanks, Bruce
Bruce,
VAC is the Vintage Airstream Club, an interclub of WBCCI.
You can attend a rally without joining, but I think that you will want to join after you meet the other members. I have heard that the Northern California Unit is very good. We have met some members who are also members of my El Camino Real Unit in So Cal.
On topic, we will be sending in our registration by the middle of December. At the September Rally in Santa Barbara, we had about 25 units and well over 1/2 said that they were going to Salem for the international.
In fact, members of the El Camino Real Unit are planning a gathering in Sisters, OR after the wagon wheels and before the vintage parade into the International.

Thanks Bill. Are you part of VAC and would you be camping with the vintage trailers?
Bruce
Bruce,
Yes, we are members of the VAC but you don't need to be to parade in with them. We will parade in, regardless of which trailer we bring. We will be easy to find as we have the only 1977 Lincoln Continental tow vehicle. We are planning on leaving Orange on Saturday, June 24 in order to be in Salem the day before the Vintage Parade, either Tuesday or Wednesday, I have heard two different dates. Since we are in the parade we will park with the Vintage, not sure of the 30 amp section or the regular section yet. We are taking the short way up through the valley, either 99 or 5. Let me know if you are going and we can caravan part way, we will probably stop the first night near Sacramento and then travel short days from there to Salem. There are many people in So Cal who have told me that they are going so we may have quite a caravan.
