Default Corvette Homecoming

Hi to all, summer is here and time to put the brakes on the car (not literally) I mean stop working on it and working the farm
Anyway, is anyone going to the National Corvette Homecoming in Kentucky next weekend? It's about 35 miles from where I live and thought if anyone was going, I'd try to look you up.

It used to be a great show while it was at Beech Bend. Don Newton and Keith Blandford ran the thing. Later they sold out. I haven't been since they moved it to WKU property and I understand they've moved it again since. This show isn't affiliated with the museum. The Labor Day meet is all about the museum and Corvette Hall of Fame inductees.

Bowling Green ?? I would have thought St Louis as that's where they were built. At least mine was.
