Default 2013 Corvettes on Woodward

I know it is early but, just a reminder that Corvettes on Woodward starts Wednesday August 14. The Radisson Hotel is already booked solid but I have back ups. I was at the Open Hands Food Pantry yesterday and the shelves are bare. They really need our help. I don't know if I can top this year's long distance car, it will be hard to beat a car flown in from Sweden. But I do know that there will be a lot of the best Corvettes you will ever see will be at the Radisson August 14. Harlan Charles will bring a full line up of the NEW C-7s. Clubs from North Carolina and Pittsburg have already said they are coming so it looks like another 500+ Corvette day. Verna and I really thank all of you for your support and generosity. If you have any ideas on what to do this year let me know and I will see if I can make it happen.

Thanks for the link. There is lots of good information there. The WDC committee said they will list my event if I become a sponsor and pay big $$$$$$. People find just fine.

Larry,

The date is already on my calendar. Not coming from overseas, but at least one guy from Brighton, MI. Only 46 more weeks.

Be well my friend.

Thank you. I received another 100.00 in the mail over the weekend. I think maybe next year I might do a quick Spring cruise right in their lot. Kind of a keck off cruise for the year.

Anyone else wan to help make checks payable to

OPEN HANDS FOOD PANTRY

My address is
28299 Bunert
Warren, Michigan 48088

Even a dollar can buy ten pounds of food.

Thanks again. Larry Courtney

I am thinking about adding a spring get together to have an early food drive for the Open Hands Food Pantry. Just a one day cruise in probably in May. Any comments??

I drag a few ACC members and Motor City Vette member to Bakers a couple of times a year. Some of our members are there almost every week. We also get a bunch of west siders to Corvettes on Woodward and Corvettes America and I am thankful for their participation.

I agree with you. I hope to change that next year. We did plan a trip to the races in K-Zoo last year but when we got there it was called off because of rain and we only had one trip to Sloan Museum and four winds casino. Will you put me on your email list to give me your events. vjnlcsvette@aol.com I will put them in our club newsletter and club calendar.

Larry a spring day sounds good as does a color tour in the fall but that might be late to organize. I'll put a check in the mail today.

Thanks everyone for sending checks. Verna and I took almost 500.00 over there just before we left for Corvette Expo in Sevierville Tennessee. The Smokies had awesome fall colors. It was a bit crowded but I would like to go back again.
