Default corvette club near st. louis/alton il. area

bought a 99 vert this year and sold my c3. getting ready to retire this year (i am a teacher) and i am looking for an active corvette club in the st. louis/alton, il. area. i have emailed a couple of clubs i found in internet searchs that looked good with no response so maybe they are not accepting new members or haven't checked their emails. in any event, if there are clubs in the area that are accepting new members, send me a private email with your web site and i will consider applying. i am normally on the c5 tech forum.

thanks

jim

Try: OCCOFSTL.COM That's the Original Corvette Club Of Saint Louis.

That's the club I belong to, there are several clubs in the area. The Looking Glass Club Of Illinois also. They attend our meetings and so on.
A great bunch of people. We meet the Second Tuesday of every month at Pietro's of South County. Visitors are always welcome. Please PM me if you have any further questions. David

Hey Jim,

Check out this link for the Looking Glass Corvette Club.

http://www.angelfire.com/retro/lookingglass/

My dad is the president and they are always looking for new members. I am thinking about joining next month myself. They meet the first Thursday of the month at Schiappa's Restaurant in O'Fallon, IL.

PM me if you want more info.

I am a memeber of original corvette club of St Louis and we are always welcoming new members. We may be a little too far south for you though if you are in the Alton area. Everyone in this club is very friendly and always has some kind of fun ride going on.
