Thanks, guys, for the info. I stay away from Facebook to try to keep a low profile on the interwebs.

We'll be on our way from Vancouver to Austin TX at that time on a month long trip so this is perfect if it's May 7-10th this year!

Correct, May 7-10th this year.
Should be the same menu as last year (if you don't mind), and hopefully the raffle will be back in full force.
Same campground, Lone Mesa near Moab.

The Syncro Solstice has always been one of my favorite outings with the Vanagon Community. There is just so much to see and do. Here are a few clips over the years in the Moab Area. If you have not been to the Syncro Solstice, this should be on your list and this year will be fantastic!
Cheers,
Ron
