Default Octobervettes Cancelled

I FOUND THIS SURFING THE WEB. SORRY TO BRING SOME OF YOU THE NEWS, THAT LOOKS FORWARD TO THIS EVENT EACH YEAR.

OctoberVettes – ENDS



We are sad to inform you that the annual OctoberVettes event at Old Town in Kissimmee, FL. has been discontinued and will not be held again. The hard working committee, comprised of representatives from the Corvette clubs of the Tampa area, have unselfishly devoted a lot of their personal time to putting on this event for the past 12 years and are now ready to take a break. Effective immediately, the OctoberVettes Committee has been disbanded. This cancellation is no reflection on anyone or any organization, and we sincerely appreciate your support during these past years. Please remove OctoberVettes from your events calendar.



We will see you at other Corvette events in the future

Well, there's still the Eckler's event in October. That's usually pretty big. There's also the NCRS in January.

It's been slowing down the past 2 years. I hear that St Armands still has vacancies as well. It's usually sold out by late feb.
