Original post was updated. Interested people should attend the September version of Camp Delta at Tower Park Resort to learn more details. See separate thread for that event, or www.MVCCNews.net.

Post 14 was updated to confirm the MV showcase for this September's meet, "Weasels and Other Tracked MVs." Halftracks are invited. It will be Friday Sept. 26, 2014, 0830-1130

A big event is over. Thanks to all who made this the biggest ever meet in the West. Special thanks to those who drove or trailered a MV great distances. Details will be covered in the next two MVCC newsletters, or if you are not members of our club there will hopefully be articles in Supply...

The event is upon us! Those looking for all info should go to the Events page on www.MVCCNews.net. We'll announce a September Camp Delta MV Showcase theme plus the April 2015 theme at the MVCC meeting, Pavilion 1000-1100. All Welcome! We'll also talk about the 2016 MVPA Convention that has...

After hosting 2 successful conventions in 1999 at the Santa Clara County Fairgrounds and again in 2003 at the USS Hornet Museum, the Military Vehicle Collectors of California has been awarded the 2016 Military Vehicle Preservation Association National Convention. It is scheduled for August...

There will be a larger living history display this April than normal. WWII Pacific theme for part of it, but all are welcome to participate with anything and any eras. Let me know if you want to be involved, especially if bringing tents or other large things so space can be planned. Individuals...

Some pull out Saturday afternoon but the meet is so big it doesn't make a huge dent. It's by far the largest annual MV gathering and swap meet west of what - Pennsylvania? So there is a lot to see, buy, and selling opportunities on Saturday afternoon. In fact that is when you get the discounts...

Yeah or a GPA or any amphib or G.I. boat. Maybe we should bring back the jeep trailer races in the marina. That was a riot. Update - there will also be a meeting on Friday to discuss the upcoming group tour to London, War & Peace Revival, and Normandy in July. This is being organized by a...

Loading dock update is available for anyone interested. Contact me. Added a rust-removal seminar using electrolysis. Spud gun shoot will be at the marina. Trying for record halftrack lineup during the Armor Showcase.

We have added a British WWII desert vehicle display to the April meet: Long Range Desert Group, Special Air Service, possibly No. 1 Demolition Squadron (Popski's Private Army). This includes a multi-day display and living history camping option in the display area. Looking for uniformed folks...

Sorry you couldn't make it. That would have been quite an effort. We do get one guy who drives his CUCV out from Texas every year. Hardcore! I'm still looking for gun trucks in the West. You would think with all the deuces around someone would build one out here. We don't have trouble with our...

Now that you have been there, what do you think?

I don't watch all vehicle specific forums here and didn't spot this thread earlier. I don't know about other event promoters but the MVCC advertises the Spring and Fall Camp Delta meets pretty well in a variety of paid and unpaid places. Enough so we usually have a wait list for campsites at the...

The MVCC is hoping for a record turnout of vehicles for the planned magazine article photos of the ARMOR Showcase Presented by Hagerty on Friday morning at the April meet. You all will be mentioned! Two halftrack owners from far away asked if there is a loading dock on site. Answer is no. These...

I updated the April activities listing by adding a sponsor for the Armor Showcase. It is Hagerty Collector Vehicle Insurance. Cash prizes for the People's Choice Contest are: $200 for First Place, $150 for Second, $100 for Third, and a $75 Voter Door Prize based on drawing one ballot from the...

The #1 and #2 largest annual MV swap meet/rally events in the Western U.S. are posted on our website. What is common to both are: Hosted by Military Vehicle Collectors of California, the largest MV club in the U.S., at Stockton/Delta KOA, 6 miles west of Lodi on Route 12. Also known as Tower...

You probably know this bigmike, but for those new to this or the April version of Camp Delta, it's an all week event for some, building toward the weekend. Busiest day usually Friday. Some who are there for days leave Saturday afternoon, so if you want to see the most, come early Saturday or...

Well obviously your priorities are messed up Carnac. Seriously we appreciate the effort you made to drive out here last April. Very hardcore! Save your pennies for a return in summer 2016 when the MVCC will probably be hosting the MVPA National Convention. It won't be at the KOA. Details to be...

Added a spud gun shoot Friday 1000, and maybe again Saturday at 1330 if there is a demand. Air powered, direct fire or mortar. Looking for a generator and possibly another compressor. Let me know. Radio operators wanted for mortar forward observer and fire base.

LCS(L)(3)-102 is a WWII "Landing Craft Support" and is a non-profit museum project at the former Mare Island Naval Shipyard at Vallejo, CA. MVers have been invited to a special open house and social event on August 24 and they would like to see a nice display of MVs, any era or condition. Arrive...
