September 11 Valley Vettes Meeting
Thursday
Club Photo Night
5:00pm Line up cars
6:00pm Photo
If you are
able to participate, please park along the sidewalk area for staging when
you first arrive. Several of the officers will be there early to arrange
the cars in a predefined format. Rick Janos will design a plan to take
advantage of year and color. Once assembled, the members will congregate
at the front of the cars much the same way as the last photo in 2005.
As we're
doing this much earlier than the previous attempt, we expect that many
may not have time for dinner. Consequently, we're working with the WAVE
to provide a limited menu to order from after completing the photo
session. Rather than order at the bar, we will occupy the meeting room
and order and be served at that location. Obviously, this is strictly
voluntary.
The
regular meeting will immediately follow dinner and it might even be
possible that we could make an early evening of the event.

September
1-5 2009 Caravan and 15th
Anniversary Celebration
National
Corvette
Museum
Corvettes
will depart from several locations nation wide all heading for
Bowling Green
Corvette enthusiasts enjoying their cars for which Chevrolet
intended on the open road. Meeting new people along the way and forging
friendships to last a lifetime.
Several Captains have been working to get their portion of the
event planed for a fun filled cruise across the country.
Caravans will depart late August and early September 2009, to
arrive for the
National
Corvette
Museum
's 15th Anniversary Celebration on September 3-5, 2009.
This is the 4th caravan to assemble at
Bowling Green
and Thousands are expected to attend this Labor Day event. What a better
way to pay tribute to the week end then to enjoy the car that lives the
American dream. The Corvette
was the dream car of my youth and I can only guess, but the dream car of
several of you also.
Valley
Vettes has the distinct honor of have a 2009 Grand Caravan Captain as
part of our Club.
Ivan Schrodt will be the Wisconsin Captain and is in charge of planning
and organizing the route from
Wisconsin
to
Bowling Green
. I am proud to have someone with such passion and drive as part
of our club. The
unfortunate part of having Ivan as a Captain is the Valley Vettes will
have to do our own planning
to meet up with the Grand Caravan. Ivan will be so busy with his duties
that we will require our own Host or team of Hosts to plan club
participation. Having an insider with in our club should be helpful in
getting accurate information for planning.
This caravan will mark the
National
Corvette
Museum
's 15th Anniversary and will host the Grand opening of the Museums
expansion. In fifteen years the Museum has grown from a dream to a place
dreams are made and memories forged forever.
The National Corvette Museums web site includes interactive maps and
specific Caravan information.
This promises to be a must attend event for the Corvette enthusiast.
