WELCOME........Plenty of nice people in our area. There are also a couple of clubs. Did you go to the Corvette show in Stony Brook by the Village Green? That was a "L.I.C.O.A." event. They are having a show in Sept. at Ramp Chevrolet. There is also "Long Island Vettes" another well known and popular club. Now you have to go out to Jones Beach, EARLY, on a Sunday morning for Vettes,Bikes and Hot Rods. It takes place where the O.B.I. used to be, just before the bridge to Fire Island, south side of Ocean Pkwy.
Don't forget to WAVE

You can become a member of the "Cunningham Park Motly Crew" a bunch of renegades with no rules or regulations. Just a bunch of "ordinary guys" who like to drive their "pride & joys"
But....we still wave

Welcome!!!

There are always lots of activity in the Northeast section with events that we set up in the NY/NJ area.

Sometime in late October, we'll probably have our second annual Fall Foliage cruise that heads out towards the north fork of Long Island. Keep an eye out for that.

Welcome. I'm a member of Long Island Vettes but we also recently cruised Vermont with LICOA members and are set to go on the Grand Canyon Pa. cruise with Forum members. Every so often we hang out at the Bald Hill car show, which is held every tuesday in summer or go to Captree in Spring (OBI in Summer). My point is, there are lots of opportunities to have fun ( and meet others) with a Vette on LI.
