Dec 2nd Mims Parade.. Corvettes wanted!
Ok I know..where in the heck is Mims??
Anyway, the local Corvette club quit participating in this parade a few years ago, so I got the bright idea of getting some forum members to come over and represent CF. The parade starts @ 10:30 am, and travels about 1 mile. I have to have the application in by 12/01 with an estimate of the # of cars anticipated. The entry fee is a bag of candy and a stuffed toy from each car, of which we have plenty (toys) if anyone needs one. It would be neat if we could get at least one car from each generation with the C1 being first in line and progressing to our lowly C6's 
I might even be talked in to hosting a bar-b-que afterwards at our house

I'm probably going to have to cancel the bar-b-q part. I just found out the Cape Kennedy Corvette Club's toy run is 12 noon at Ecklers, traveling to Port Canaveral. It's only 10 minutes from Mims, so participating in both is not a problem in case anyone else wants to do both. Kevin

Would love to join you guys but my vette is currently under the knife again getting the interior completely redone. Good news it will be ready in 2 weeks, bad news it will be too late for your event. Maybe next time.
