I have volunteered to facilitate the Annual RV-10 Dinner at the RV-10 HQ in
Camp Scholler. There are still numerous variables to work through before a
more formal announcement can be made. Look for a detailed update the Monday
before the show starts (July 13th). The tentative date will be Sunday
evening (July 19th) at 6pm.
If anyone else wants to volunteer to assist me, please drop me an email.
Thanks,
Bob

Subject: | Vans Aircraft Banquet |
Hi guys it's my first time to Oshkosh and I'd like to know if anyone has previously
been to the Vans dinner?
Is there likely to be an RV-10 community presence there and is it a networking
event to meet up with the staff from Vans?
I'd also love to come along to your RV-10 camp dinner too please if the invite
is there?
I'm looking forward to finally meeting up with as many of you as possible.
Warm regards and safe skies.

I was there many years ago.
You will find many people who've built many types of RV's that attend,
so I'm sure there will at least be some RV-10 builder that shows up.
But, it
will just be some random builders, not like a coordinated group of any
specific models. You will also get to talk to some of Van's staff, but
I didn't
find that there was an extreme "networking" side to the evening. It was
just a very nice dinner with a bunch of RV people. I wouldn't want to
discourage you from going, because it was a nice dinner. But it wasn't
a "can't miss" event either. You will probably enjoy the RV-10 camp dinner
much more if you attend them both. But you only show up on our
continent once in a while so take in all you can if you feel inclined.
Looking forward to meeting you too.

I second Tim's assessment. The 10 contingent at the Van's dinner is more
eclectic - a large mass of divergent models. With Bob Condrey involved at
the RV 10 dinner, make a point of being there Sunday. I will buy your Beer.

I've been to all but one Vans banquet for the last ten years. The last three
or four years they have done a pretty good job of having an interesting keynote
speaker. Last year the presentation focused on all the safety testing of the
RV-14. There was also a short presentation on the Eagle Nest Projects. You
never know the topic until dinner starts.
There always will be a 5 minute talk from Dick, then one of the staff will talk
about the state of Vans for a few minutes. Dinner always ends with a raffle.
I won a $100 Avery Tools gift certificate a few years ago.
If you want to network, then show up an hour earlier. Once dinner starts, you're
limited to the folks sitting around you. Yes, there historically been a
group of RV-10 builders the sit together.
The RV-10 dinner always has an open invite and nobody is turned away. I'll be
posting details around the 11th.

A couple of years ago I attended the Van's dinner and I ended up sitting next to
the guy who makes the RV-10 windshields. That was perfect cause I quickly found
out what he recommends to glue in the windshield with. It wasn't Weldon...
I think it is a great networking event, and agree with Tim that you shouldn't miss
it, but if you want to meet RV-10 folks come to the RV-10 dinner.
