Reason: Updating event information for attendies
3rd annul Vettes for Vets- Update.... Thanks to those who already responed to the first post..hope everyone is doing well ..I am working on the the possibilty of using a new starting point this year becasue of the exceptional turn out we had last year. I have been in contact with the Morristown Armory and asked if we could use their parking lot as a staging area for my event. I submitted the paper work and are awaiting their response. If all goes well I believe they will grant me this request. We have already recieved support from the Morristown Police department along with the Harding police Department for the event. Look forward to hearing from and seeing everyone soon. Thanks again and I appreciate all your support over the past 2 years....

Hi Jerry,
Is that your polite way of stating the neighbors are pizzed at you??? j/k.
I can't wait for the final plans. It is truly a great event!!
Location: Probably talking that police officer out of giving you a summons! ========== The Beautiful Lower Hudson Valley, NY
As usual Jerry, let me know what I can do to assist on this end.
Can someone please post up the link to last year's pictures?
This is a great event that Jerry puts together. For anyone that hasn't attended, THIS IS FOR THOSE GUYS/GALS THAT DO WHAT THEY DO SO WE CAN DO WHAT WE DO!!!!
The vets at the Lyons Veteran Hospital deserve this day in their honor. Please make every effort to attend. You won't be disappointed. Even the police departments along the way go out of their way to make this event pleasurable.
How many Corvettes are we looking for THIS year, Jerry?

Hey Charlie,
I would take a rough guess over 125 this year, only started with 38 2 years ago so thanks you you and your crew from the forum it gains ground every year. Right now still working on firming up the Armory for a staging year very close to have that nailed down. will keep in touch with everyone thanks: again to you Deb, Steve, Danny, Alex,nukey and the rest of the crew thanks again for your support...
