Okay you lot, how about supporting this fund raiser, no doubt some of our forum members & affiliated corvette club members and their families have been affected by the floods in QLD so head down in your Vette or shopping trolley to Harry’s on the 22nd and support this event, with a donation

I'll be there, and hopefully a good number of our members will be able to join us for this worthwhile cause. From what I've read, many car clubs have been invited to attend this special fund raiser.
See you there!
Gary

I've asked the organisers to reserve at least 30 car spaces for the Corvette Club. Now lets fill 'em with Vettes!!:drag:

Hi VETTENUT,

Is this right we will have organized parking ? :ado:
Are you all meeting up or meeting there ?

and if so at what time ?
Thanks Tony

VETTENUT · « **Reply #9 on:** January 19, 2011, 07:47:44 AM »

Hi Tony, yes the organisers have allocated 30 car spots for our club's Corvettes, where they can all park together as a group. We will just meet there from 5.00PM onwards. Start time is billed as 5.30, but it will be pretty busy by then. I suggest everyone get there around 5pm.
I'm looking forward to seeing a good display of 'Vettes. Should be a good night for a worthy cause.
Cheers
Gary
