October 7 - 9, 1983, Williamsburg, Virginia
The very first GWRRA Rally in Virginia

Our thanks to Dave & Delores Ebmeier (CDs of VA-B, Virginia Beach), who provided these pictures for your enjoyment. Those of you who have attended previous, early GWRRA events in Virginia, please share them with us, so that we can help preserve our past. If you can let us borrow the pictures, we'll scan them and post to the WebSite for everyone to see "how it was in the old days?" 8^) Send to Chris Hooper.
Back in the early rallies, everyone "camped out". GWRRA Rally 83

Field Events Back then, the Field Events were actually held in a field. How many of you would ride your bikes in skill events, on GRASS, these days?
