Very nice setting for a car show. Weather looks great there. It rained all day long here. Thanks for posting up the pics.

Hi Corvette Gals and Guys,
Great photos Gene, and Thanks to all that came to the show. Although we bill our show as, the "Best Little Small Town" Corvette show in Florida, were going to try and add another 25 - 30 Registered spaces for next year. That will top us out at about 160 including our club cars.
Sorry we had to turn away so many cars at the gate this year, but the park was only set up for a certain number of cars, and we also have to pre-order lunches, Lighthouse tickets and Marine Science tickets in advance for Registered cars.
For those that attended, we would appreciate any feedback you would share with us in an effort to improve next year's show...
I'll post the award winners shortly, and maybe even a few more photos.
Thanks Again and Save The Wave...

Hi Truble,
Awesome new ride ... thanks for the pix.
After the show we had about 40 Vettes head over to the Hatch for dinner. Beer was on the house (thanks to Ray - He still talks about you guys bringing the Queen City Club down there) ...
They had a motorcycle show and pig roast in conjunction with our show. We ran free tram service back and forth between shows. It was a gorgeous Ponce Inlet Day and real nice show ... sorry you guys couldn't come down for it.
Hi to Jane...
Speak at you soon...
