I will be notified by For Corvettes Only just as soon as a decision is made, and I'll be posting it right away.

Thanks Elaine. Just like last year with the weather - looks like it will be a last minute thing.

That sounds about right - that was about the time me and about a dozen peeps from the Cape Cod Corvette Club were getting off of 95 in Connecticut...

I hope this year isn't an 'instant replay'...

If the event is held I plan on going even if we have rain in my area. Our group would be meeting in Seekonk at 9AM to make the drive to Mystic. I have my fingers crossed for clearing early enough to avoid a messy drive. Then again, they are cars, you drive them and they don't melt in the rain! Hey, it's not a judged show anyway.

The rain looks as if it will move out of the area for sunday.

As Elaine said earlier Doug will try and make the decision on postponement as early as possible. He is going to be at Village at around 7 am roping the area off. I think by morning we should have a good idea what the weather will be.

Where and when are you meeting in Seekonk? What time do you need to leave Seekonk? I may have a small group headed that way...

Weather looks like it should clear for Mystic, but it might not clear the Cape until later in the morning - so we are in the wait and see mode...

I think about 200 cars showed up after a cloudy start...the sun broke through and it brought the heat...a good social event..not car show pressure...good music, raffles...a 50/50 and lots of cars with bling to look at...owners to chat too and tailgate foodies. Life is pretty darn good...the hosts walked around and placed trophies in front of cars that caught their eye...only thing missing what the Diva...

Thanks guys! I really did miss this event, but my club had a big thing going, and I really had to attend. Next year I'll be at Mystic for sure!

I think around 205 cars is what was estimated.

"For Corvettes Only" thanks everyone that came out to support the show.

I think the Corvette count was closer to 230 cars according to Master NCM Ambassador George S.
