Welcome to the website for the 38th National Truck-In, 'Back on the Farm', hosted by VAN NY. This site is to inform and enlighten you as we prepare to greet you in New York in July 2010. There are many things to get ready for your visit and we also hope that you will take a little extra time to visit and learn about our beautiful state of New York. Once you leave the concrete jungle, there is a lot to see and do!

The Washington County Fairgrounds in Greenwich, NY has hosted many VAN eVANts over the years-Class Act was there for 5 years (I could be off by 1 or 2!), the 19th Nationals in 1991 were at these grounds and Lost Memorial Day weekend is at these same grounds every year. They are very aware of the needs of Vanners and have made us very comfortable in the past. The land is very flat, grassy in areas, not grassy in others, lots of power and water hook-ups, real restrooms with hot showers, food vendor on site, announcement speakers you can hear!, indoor stage area for bands, large vendors row, close to touristy spots, not far from some farm markets, a stop in town is close by and lots more! The Washington County Fairgrounds does ask for a bit of co-operation from us though, in that we walk our pets in the designated areas, pick up after them, and that we make use of the restroom facilities provided and pay mind to where our trash and used water supply end up when we are finished. VAN NY and the staff at the grounds say thank you in advance for all your cooperation on this matter!

VAN NY is working very hard in order to bring a Great State of New York eVANt to the Vanners that will be coming to 38th National Truck-In. From the standards of show-n-shine, bright-n-shine, Vanners nite in, a parade into town, bands, trophies etc.; we will also be showing off the Empire State as a whole. From wings in the west to wine in the center and syrup to the north, New York food and beverage is best straight from the farm.
New York has tons of beaches, located on two Great Lakes, many Finger Lakes, the St. Lawrence Seaway, the Hudson River, and more. Mountain ranges are found all over the state, from the Alleghany in the southwest, Catskills in the southeast to the Adirondacks in the north, there are hiking trails and campgrounds to pass a day or two within our borders. We will be sharing some of our favorite areas with you in our 'Things to do' section-just in case you want to see for yourselves.

A little about us, VAN NY (Vanners Associated for the Nats in New York) is an organization of Vanners for the execution of the 38th National Truck-IN. The Vanners that make up VAN NY come from not only New York, but also from near and far.
These Vanners have volunteered as individuals in order to get our job done and many are active members of varied clubs and councils.

The board is comprised of Vanners all from New York and they are working hard with the grounds, the Nats Board, and the members of VAN NY in order to bring you the best National Truck-In yet!
