Default adopt a C5

Wonder if we as the C5 group of CF could do this?

Adopt-A-Corvette of Your Own Inside the Museum

A new “Adopt-A-Corvette” program has been created as a fundraiser to benefit our Building Campaign effort and to offer families, clubs, members and organizations a chance to be a featured sponsor of a Corvette on display inside the Museum. Adopting families or organizations can choose, according to availability, a vehicle from the NCM or GM owned vehicles to adopt for three months or six months. The adopter will receive a “Certificate of Adoption” as well as a photograph of the vehicle.

A professionally designed plaque with the adopting family or organization’s name, city and the name of the vehicle and photo will be displayed beside the adopted Corvette. At the end of the adoption period, the sponsor will receive the photograph plaque by mail. Adopt a Corvette for three months in return for a $300 donation or for six months with a $500 donation. If you or your club is interested in adopting a Corvette and would like to receive a list of Corvettes available for adoption, please contact Membership Services Manager, Stephanie Morrill at: stephanie@corvettemuseum.com.

Saw that yesterday in an e-mail from the NCM. Hope they raise a lot of money for the building campaign that way.

Yeah this went all of nowhere.

In one of the issues, they showed a rendering of what the new place will look like. Looks really great to me.

Eh, sounds like something someone would do on their own I guess.
