Default Bloomington Gold Show

Is anyone going? I'll be leaving on the 23rd to start driving up. We'll be in the Mecum building (i think thats the name of it). If you go through the glass doors 1st we'll be the 1st 3 spots all the way to the right. Come check us out. We will be happy to answer all questions. See you there.

:party:

I think it was bad scheduling to have the 50th in Nashville and Bloomington at the same time. What do you think? :seeya

I'll be at Bloomington Gold on Saturday. The http://www.digitalcorvettes.com clan will be meeting early in the morning so we can all park on the golf course in the same spot.

If you want the details, shoot me an e-mail. :cheers:

No, actually Bloomington should have switched weekends. The 30th is the actual birthday, so it had to be this weekend.

No offense. I've never been to Bloomington Gold, but I'd love to someday. I think BG and Corvettes at Carlisle are akin to Disney World. However, The 50th only happens once. Not to mention, I'm taking my wife out of town for our 25th wedding anniversary. If I said BG, she'd shoot me. But, we will be driving right by Bowling Green that day. It'd be a shame not to stop in :D

I think th C5 crowd will be at the 50th anniversary, and the "real" Corvetters
will be at Bloomington. I'll be at Bloomington like the last 13 years in a row...

Agree it was a mistake to schedule them the same weekend. :crazy:

I will be at Bloomington but I wonder if all the vendors will be there as it is going to be difficult for them to be in 2 different locations at same time with their "A" team. Are the forum members gettin together anyplace special in St Charles? :seeya
