Does anyone know anything about corvette adventures show at the wisconsin dells June 9 thru the 12th ? I think it is going to be at the Chula Vista Resort. We had talked to some representatives from it at Effingham last summer. We cannot find any info on it now.

I think this is more of a weekend getaway with your significant other kind of affair (not that there is anything wrong with that). There is plenty to do in the Dells area so keep your eye on the link above.

From last year...
http://www.wiscnews.com/wisconsindel...cc4c03286.html

From CruizinUSA (2010)
"June Cruizin Month started off with our third year of Corvette Adventures in the Wisconsin Dells, WI. It was great fun seeing old friends and meeting new ones while admiring all the Corvettes that attend the event as well as beautiful new ones provided by Ballweg Chevrolet of Middleton, WI for the drivers of the road tours. What a lucky bunch of drivers!! Cruz Master put together great back road routes featuring some of Wisconsin finest rural America stops along the way. From a cheese and winery tour, a ride to the Mississippi River for lunch to a stop at the Baraboo Circus World Museum showcasing what CruizinUSA is all about, sharing our routes and the stops along the way."

We have 11 cars from the St. Louis Corvette Club and 2 from the Cyclone Corvette Club so far that will be attending this year.

It is our first time at this event. Looks like plenty of activities. Hope it doesn't rain.

the only thing they don't charge you for is air, and if they could figure out a way they'd do that too....

I tend to stay away from the Dells for this reason. That and all the bad drivers from Chicago.

The website says race on the dells speedway but then in another part of the website it calls it a parade. Does anyone know which it is?

I think I'll skip this event and maybe Wisconsin all together this year. Instead of leaving thousands of my dollars up North I'll stay in Illinois, maybe enroll in a local driving school...

From the agenda it looks like the speedway time slots and the parade are separate events. There are open track slots each day.

I live about 5 minutes from Chula Vista in Lake Delton. I have contemplated going the last couple of years. I believe the very first year is when we had that big storm come through that ended up breaching Lake Delton. That is the weekend that I purchased my current Vette.

web site does not give much info outside of what they are charging for (registration tab) if I happen by for one day with my car do I need to pay $40 or $60 with my wife? I have a house on a lake close by and would not mind going for a few hours or joining the sat AM road trip but for $60 I can buy a couple tanks of gas for my boat and enjoy the lake. Anyone know if you can "ala carte"?
Thanks

I was wondering the same thing. Has anyone ever gone to this event. What do they have at Chula Vista. Are there vendors there.

We just got up here today. There are probably 75 corvettes here so far I would guess. Vendor row is tomorrow and Sat I believe. So far so good! Chula Vista is nice.
