The last time a Nats had over 700 vans was in 2002 at Hillsboro, Ohio, they had 750. The Nats in Butler, PA in 1999 had over 900, I believe it was around 915 or 920, Jim would know. Where is it being held next year. | | | Re: 46th Van Nationals, July 25-29, 2018 | Joined: Sep 2005 Posts: 9,855 Likes: 234 carpal tunnel | carpal tunnel Joined: Sep 2005 Posts: 9,855 Likes: 234 | As long as it's in that general area the numbers will look pretty good. (self edit).
Mass next year, I believe. Somewhere up that way.......

Great to see all my Vanning friends and plenty of new blood with some incredible new vans. Thanks again for another great Nats!!!!! Scott

Any idea of the last Nats that broke the 1000 mark, probably late 80s, early 1990s. Any where we can find out who won the show awards this year or even see some pics posted.

Had a blast. 250 vans participated in the Cornfield Cruise. Our proceeds from the commemorative sticker sales & some shirts ($724) got donated to the Police (for leading & blocking intersections), Rennsalear Parks for People Campaign, and the vanner affiliated 2nd Chance for Pets Network. Here's some pics from the local newspaper: Cruise Pics in Renssalear Republican NewspaperVirtual & others we had set up on the cruise route also have some great pics that will emerge over time.
