EVENT: MVPA National Convention
LOCATION: Louisville , Kentucky
DATE: 5-7 June 2025
Scott, Rory and I attended the National MVPA convention hosted in Louisville, KY over D-Day weekend. While the convention hall wasn't completely full, the convention was still a success to those we talked to for the future.
We caught up with friends we hadn't seen since last year's show and talked with a lot more folks about the MVPA and its future. We talked with several of the interim Board of Directors including the President Patrick Tipton and Treasurer Robert Brough. We also attended several seminars and learned a lot that can help Lone Star moving forward.
As for the show portion, about 95 vehicles from our count of all types were on display including bikes, tractors, halftracks, CUCVs, a few large trucks and vehicles brought by the National Guard. The Guard even landed a Blackhawk outside on Saturday!
Rory made the rounds and took a day and a half to make it through the vendors talking with everyone. I spent a good amount of time talking with folks from Texas plotting and scheming and planning. Scott found what he needed to use a radio in his M1009 and enjoyed the show overall.
We are encouraged with what we heard from the new leadership and excited to be a part of the revitalization of the MVPA.
