Default Sandestin car show?

Is there going to be a show this year, if so where do we sign up and with who?
Another member sent out a thread that it was going to be Oct 18th this year but I can't find any info on the show on our forum.

Yes, Vettes at the Village is Oct. 18th in San Destin. It is sponsored by Playground Corvette Club. Here's the link to their web site.

Some of our club members try to go every year. Generally a good time. when it's not SO HOT.... But shopping in the village and the cars to look at..can't bet it.

What!...No photo of that Black 69' Big Block side-piped, a/c equipped, flared fender convertible with the 6-speed from Miami?....my favorite of the show! I hope he took home at least one of those trophies!

You mean this one (sorry for the bad pictures)




It was indeed an awesome car. I wish the owner would have stuck around though. He walked off right after he parked it. I only saw him at his car for about 3 minutes all day. I also wish he would have put his hood up like everyone else. I saw him open it up for about 2 minutes, but closed it and walked off before I could go check it out.

These are a few more pictures I took, and my Black C3 that was at the show.



(My favorite car out there)

Correction, that was a 1969, not a 1971...my bad. Here is a link to the car (not this weekend's show) for those that missed this awesome car...

Been to the last three and didn't even get a flyer this year. Must be because I complained about where they parked us last time. Oh well, wonder how many Fl plates show up at our Annual Toys for Tots car show in December in Atlanta. Bet none except those that live in GA and register their car in FL to stiff the tax man.

Good morning and sorry you missed the VATV this year........I was the Chairman of the show last year (just moved to TN) and we have never really sent flyers for the show. We did always try to advertise as much as possible, via the Forum, NCM Museum, NCCC, Bluebars, Vette MAG, ETC.......

I am also past President of the Playground Corvette Club I know all those folks and there was no issue with your inquiry about where you were parked believe me, we tried to work with and help and assist with any and all issues but some we just couldn't get the answer to all questiuons and concerns......I wouild hope you would give the folks another chance next year they will try their best to make everyone happy to be there.......

Have a great day.......And hope to see you there next year........

Rudy Hill
