Corvette Events in Michigan
TO ALL OF OUR CORVETTE FRIENDS,
The following events are organized by my wife Verna and me. You are all invited to join us. We plan to be giving out goodie bags at each event. If you are a club and want to include some flyers, a BUSINESS OR VENDOR you are most welcome to send anything you would like to include in our goodie bags. I am also looking for door prize, raffle prize and silent auction items. You can also choose which event you would like to participate. My email address is vjnlcsvette@aol.com for more information.
June 14, 2014 CORVETTES IN THE "D". Located at GM World Headquarters, the Ren Cen Detroit. Last year over 300 Corvettes participated. This will become an annual event with special Corvettes exhibits each year. This year it is CORVETTE RACING and LE MANS. There will be special Corvette Displays and an Autograph Session. We will continue this year with our amazing collectible t-shirts.
August 13-15 CORVETTES ON WOODWARD, DRIVE2ENDHUNGER a three day Corvette event that supports the Open Hands Food Pantry. We begin with tours of the GM Heritage Center, GM's private Museum. Then head over to the Radisson Hotel in Bloomfield Hills Michigan to be together with 500 other Corvettes in a massive meet and greet. The Corvette team will be there to talk about the new C7s and the great new Z06. Jeff Nowicki will be returning this year with his Concept C7. There will be displays by Corvette Central. Galli Sports Apparel, Official Woodward Dream Cruise Merchandise, Cruis'News, food and DJ. Also included visits to Lingenfelter and Stahl's private collections, tours of Katech, tour of a special private wild life museum, meet and greets at restaurants. All of this going on with the excitement of WOODWARD DREAM CRUISE, the World’s Largest One Day Automobile Event.
August 26-27 I will be leading 250 Corvettes from Michigan, Indiana and Western Kentucky to Bowling Green to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the National Corvette Museum. We will be stopping in Indiana for a spin on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. There are 29 Caravans all meeting in Bowling Green for the event. The Museum is looking for 10,000 people to attend
See you soon, Larry Courtney

This year because GM is participating the date is moved to Saturday June14. This is the same day as Team Corvette Show at Graff Chevrolet in Davison. It is also the same day as Canterbury. Both of these shows are qualifying show for the MCCC show in September at Stanford Chevrolet. I would believe that those seeking to win trophies will attend one of these show.
I also know that there are over 35,000 registered Corvettes in Michigan and some will make their way to Corvettes in the D.
To the best of my knowledge, no show in Michigan will have the Corvette Racing Trailer on site with a C7R display. Also I will have the Atlantic and Pacific Corvettes on display. They were introduced at SEMA last October and had a second unveiling at the Bash at the Museum in April.
This year I have an added feature. Paul Koerner "The Corvette Mechanic" will be there along with Brittany George.
Last year I did have a few problems. This year they are all worked out. Andiamo's Pizza Pie Company will be there. I also signed an agreement for eight porta potties to be on site.
Last year's T-shirts were a big hit. Wait until you see this year's.
I will have goodie bags and dash plaques for the first 300 Corvettes.
If you need more information contact me at vjnlcsvette@aol.com

Larry - I'd like to sponsor again for the Corvettes on Woodward. Like I've said in years past, I would like to make my sponsorship a yearly thing. You do so much for the community. I'd like to do a small part of it.
