We went to the very first one, several years ago, in Montello, WI before it was called the Midwest Vintage Trailer Rally. It was small but fun. Lots of cool vintage travel trailers. We were the only 2 teardrops there.

Several members here have been in years past & would be able to give you more input...Lori? Jim? Tom? Rob? Tina & Jerry? Dianne? Dawn?

At one point, they tried having 2 rallies each year - one in Montello & one in Illinois.

Here is a link that has pics from 2005 & 2006 (along with the link for this year):

I know a couple of vintage teardrops went to the rally two years ago because one of the TV's broke down in Whitewater and I happened to be driving by and talked with the two guys. The two rigs were traveling together. One matched the vintage car he was driving. THe other was a vintage silver. They had never heard of the forum so I did a quick pitch.
