On Corvette Clubs! There is the Hampton Club, which Bernie may have knowledge of, and there was a Newport News/Gloucester ClubThe last President was a Gloucester resident, but they had few members. I believe they may have disbanded. They used to meet at Hutchins Cheverolet
Then there is also RPM (Ratpack Motor Sports, which includes folks on the Penninsula and on the Southside, but this is primarily a racing (high speed auto X) club.
There are two clubs in Richmond.
And, of course, there is the Beachcombers in Va Beach
Looking forward to meeting up with y'all

Anyone going to be at the Harley Davidson/Classic Cruiser's car show on Rt 17 Saturday? If so, look for me in my 76 and let's talk. I'll probably have my 29 Gazelle as well. Assuming good weather of course.

If you come by ... look for the tall, slim, tan, grayheaded fellow with the yellow C4 logo'd shirt .... should be easy to spot amongst all the bug owners

Didn't make it to the show Saturday. Used the day to fix an oil leak (at least I hope it's fixed). 
Will try next week.
PortDawg - Are you still in the AF and if so, are you stationed at Langley? I'm retired (2000) AF.

Went to the Harley Davidson Classic Car Cruisers show on Rt 17 tonight. Met some nice vette owners and talked about starting a club. Everyone seemed interested. We also talked about having a get together at the Kiln Creek Park off of Victory Blvd in Kiln Creek (Hampton Roads, VA on the Peninsula). Thought a cruise in with a BBQ (everyone bring a dish and meat to cook) would be great to allow everyone to meet and greet. How many owners out there are interested in meeting? It would be open to any vette owner within driving distance. I'm looking at some Saturday or Sunday in Aug/Sep timeframe. If there is enough interest, I'll post this on a new thread. Let me know here or email me at villardk@gmail.com.
