Advantage Chevrolet Corvette and Camaro Show Sunday June 7
LaGrange Rd. and Joliet Rd. Hodgkins, Il.
What I like about this show is the predominately mature 'vette owners and the mostly younger guys with their tricked out newer gen Camaros admiring each others cars.
Cruise night in Linclonshire this Friday Cruisin with the Cops at Fresh Farms 22 / Milwaukee I may check it out, supposed to have some food trucks there too.
we are having our second annual "shark only" corvette show at otto's in carpentersville. Il on 8/29.
Otto's is located right on the fox river (a perfect location for sharks). Come join us with your c3's for this 2nd annual event. Last year we had over 40 sharks attend in the rain! All vettes are welcome. C-3's are encouraged to register for the show but, it's not a requirement.
See attached flyer for details!!!!
Rain Out!
Rescheduled for September 19th
