Rally #8 @ Bright, June 2016
Our 8th Airstream rally was held in the middle of Winter (eek!) in Bright VIC. We had three Airstreams in attendance:
- Bette: a 1975 Airstream Overlander owned by Tracey Johnson and Drew Lean from Airstream Downunder.
- Virginia: a 1974 Airstream owned by Matt Mifsud and Sonia Attard from Airstream Days.
- Outdoor Tiger: a 2014 Airstream owned by Tiger Zong from Outdoor Tiger.
- Jessie and Scott from Happy Glamper / Airstream Dreams also attended, staying in a nearby cabin (due to their Airstream being hired out to others).
Despite the cold, we loved hanging out around the campfire together with wine and marshmallows, exploring Bright's cafes and hitting the toboggan slopes of Mount Buffalo!

Rally #5 @ Wilsons Prom, Oct 2015
Our fifth rally was held at Wilsons Prom on the AFL Grand Final long weekend of 2015. It attracted most of our Victorian club members and fellow vintage caravan enthusiasts, and the weather was perfect! Beach + mountains + vintage caravans + good people... what more could you want? :)
Andrew Northover captured some great imagery for us - thanks Andy!

We also had other Airstreamers attend without their Airstreams! A big shout-out goes to:
- Amy and Dean Semmens and their three boys (their Airstream was in two parts so they attended in their Jayco),
- Peter + Renata Weinzettl and daughter, who visited in their cool vintage VW Beetle for the Saturday afternoon and evening,
- Chloe McConchie and her partner Ben, who visited for the Saturday afternoon.
We also had vintage caravan collectors and enthusiasts Lucy and Nathan Hersey from Franklin Coffee come and visit!
