message from BloomingtonGold
Here's the deal with parking this year, Since BloomingtonGold has turned into a snoozefest and a show for the "old timers" we are saving the close parking for those groups. Corvette Forum parking will be at the far south end of the golf course since you youngsters can walk farther to get to the events!!!!!!!!!!!
Only Kidding! Yes your parking area is still secured, eventhough no one thought to give me a call. Your past support has been noted and appreciated. If your tires get muddy or you have to dodge tree branches blame mother nature.
Just announced, the new grand sport will be on site for this years show. It the real one, the one shown at the museum is just a mock-up.
Thanks again for all the support your group gives and all the imput that this forum gives about our show. We do listed, its just sometimes the philosophy of our organization does not follow the ideas of the public.
We are trying to implement new ideas for the new Corvette owners, keep the suggestions comming.

I will only put the Corvette Forum sign on my window if it gets me close to the Bud tent and the portajohns. Quite honestly, I think we should be in the enclosed bldg (I think that is the Mega Center), out of the sun, heat, wind, etc, etc etc. T, not happy you will not be attending this year!!! My memory is pretty bad, but I don't think you made it last year either!!!!!

Am I assuming correctly that the Corvette Forum parking will be in the same location as last year? It sure was convenient coming in the east entrance. 
If so, I'll be parked under the tree without the birds in it.

There is no special "fancy pants" area...The only thing you'll see once on the grounds are Corvettes, Corvette parts, Corvettes for sale, Corvettes being auctioned, and Corvettes being judged and certified.
I never really browsed the swap meet much myself...but some owners of the classics I'm sure can give their opinion about it better.
If you've never been, I'd highly recommend it...worth the drive from WI, and well worth the price of admission.
