RV FEATURE A GATHERING OF FRIENDS The lush, verdant scenery of Paradise Valley Camping Ground, eastern Victoria, was the setting of this year’s Halen Vans Gathering. In November, 28 Halens rolled into Paradise Valley for their owners’ annual get-together. Halen Vans has been holding yearly gatherings since 2014. Peter Blackmore and his wife have attended numerous Halen Vans gatherings. “We hold the gathering so we can catch-up with all our van owners to see what they have all been up to and for all owners to reconnect with each other and share where they have been, and for them to share details so they can travel together in the future,” Halen Vans co- owner Bec Francis told GoRV. / 39
