Right back at you - just let me know if you need anything else and I'll make sure we hook it up. I'll bring a couple Carlisle Events Season Passes for the auction...

Talk to you soon,

Lance

PS I'd be happy to supply a tour of our family collection as well if you'd like. It would be for a couple and two of their friends at their leasure. Hopefully this helps!

So far they are calling for temps down here at 36 to high of 55 and probably cooler up there; might be a little too cold but hopefully no wind.

32 pre-registered cars.......20+ items in the Chinese Auction.......GOOD weather forecasted......45+ "Club Cars" attending....Emails and Phone calls about this event coming in to Ken and I throughout each day now. Volunteers are ready....The time is getting closer. if your ANYWHERE within a reasonable driving distance, come to an event which is being held for a wonderful man..to keep "Chips" legacy alive and to promote research in the disease which took his life...

PLEASE. .....pass the word about this show/charity....Call your Corvette buddies...Caravan up together.. let all your club members know about this "season ending event"...Info can be found at. www.vetteclub.org

This is also Veterans Day... . Come out and enjoy the day.

Chip will surely be smiling down on all of us on Sunday..

It'sgoing to be a cold one, high of 47 and 30 in the am. We'll have to scrape off the frost first, before cleaning I'm going to have trouble getting the cover off my car, it will be so stiff and frosty.

hey guys

thank you to everyone that came out to the show today!

This was the first time we have put on this show and for a first year event we ended up with 118 registered participants plus another 45 or so club member cars so there were over 160 Corvettes there today. An excellent turn-out for a new show, especially one so late in the season.

We had cars come as far away as Pittsburg and New York so an even more special thanks to those car owners for driving the distance. There were cars from 18 different car clubs that attended.
We are definitely holding the show again last year so we hope that all of you will be able to attend again if you were there and if you missed it than hopefully we will see you than.

After all the awards were given out we were able to present to Lance Miller a sizable check for the Chip Miller Foundation.

Than you again to all that came out to support the show!!

I'll have many of the pictures up on our club website hopefully by later tonight and as soon as they are up I'll post the link to them.

Great job...Andy, Ken, Barry, and Lance. What a nice turn-out for a "first-year" show. You guys put on a nice deal today. And, it was great to see so much money raised for the Chip Miller Charitible Foundation.

The best way I can think of to "end" the show season. Looking forward to next year's gig.
