Default Vettes Doin' Charleston

We have an all Corvette show coming up toward the end of April. Thought I'd put it on the forums. It is a lot of fun and has been well received over the years. It will be held in a large mall (outdoors) with plenty to do. The night before the show, we have a dinner for the pre-registered guests at the hotel where we have arranged for rooms. The flyer below tells all, but if you have any questions, please PM me. Thanks for looking and have a great week, Bill Morris

Just saw that show advertised in the American Sports Car magazine from the NCM. Best of luck with show. It's a little far for me to go.

Thanks for the heads up. I have to go up to the NY/NJ metro area round about that time of year, if I can get the timing to coincide I'll make a stop. Thanks again!

I would like to add that whether or not you stay at the host hotel, all pre-registered guests to the show are invited to the get-together on Friday night. We really hope a bunch from the forum can attend. Have a great weekend, Bill Morris.

Charleston is one of the great cities to visit on the east coast.

I did this show two years ago and had the time of my life.

I live here in beautiful Charleston and attend the show each year. The club is well organized and it is a really well run and enjoyable show. I was a club member until I got too ill and not up to actively participating. Could not pull my weight. They are really a good group of folks.
A lot of people from out of town stick around and do the Charleston historic scene. So much history here. So many awesome eateries.We love to go downtown and walk the historic district in the spring. There is some awesome landscaping. You will see earthquake rods that go from an exterior wall to the other side. Those were installed after the devastating earthquake of 1886(I think that was the year). Y'all come see us, ya heyah?
