This was a record smashing year for our 30th 'Corvette Weekend' in October and our charities will be quite happy when the checks are presented this month.
The weather was picture perfect which drew many more last minute entries.
We had 815 cars registered, 1417 people including navigators registered. Of those, 203 were first time participants.
696 cars road the parade route down the Ocean City boardwalk. 62 model years were represented and 85 clubs participated.
284 attended the fun show and we had 114 participate in the rallye.
This event started modestly in 1986 with about 20 members planning to cavaran to the beach for a weekend. The news spread and 60 cars showed up. It has since become the second largest Corvette gathering on the east coast, second only to Carlisle and has attracted cars from Canada to Florida and occasionally west coast cars as well. All net proceeds go to charities which is really the motivation that keeps us going year after year.
This event pretty much consumes an entire year of planning so we'll be rolling up our sleeves again in February for our 2017 event.
We would be honored to have some of our NSW friends enjoy this event as well, and bet we could find some cars available to drive down the boardwalk!
Best to you and the club,
Jerry
