Default Celebration of Corvette Show NW FL 07 May 22

Our annual Celebration of Corvette Show presented by Sunset Vettes of Northwest Florida and Preston Hood Chevrolet will be held this year on 07 May 2022. Registration is free. Location is on flyer (Ft. Walton Bch, FL). There will be door prizes, silent auction, 50/50 drawing, and games to win more prizes. Top 40 awards for people's choice. Specialty trophies for dealer's choice, best engine, best interior, best paint. Club member cars will not compete with participant cars. There will be three, possibly four food trucks on site. Live music (smooth jazz). The 1967 Corvette formerly owned by astronaut Gus Grissom will be on display.

The Grand Prize is a full set of tires for any generation Corvette (C1 thru C8) provided by our sponsor, Preston Hood Chevrolet. Again, this is a no fee registration, and all registered participants are eligible for the grand prize. I have included the flyer and the registration form. Just copy and print. The info to mail in the registration forms is located on the form.

Hope to see you here!!!

I just put out the word on our local nextdoor.com
Nextdoor had coverage of the Exotic show from last Sat in Destin.
Someone asked when the next show was.

The show is tomorrow. The forecast calls for sunny skies and low 80's. Only a 5% chance of rain. It is raining this morning but this is moving through fast and should be gone by 1000. Come on out and show off your Corvette. All registered participants are eligible to win a set of tires for any generation Corvette.

You have to remember if they don't have pictures it didn't happen.

Glad to hear you had fun. We are on schedule to do it again next year in May. Thanks to all of the participants that contributed in the silent auctions and the games. We took in plenty to donate to our local charities at the end of the year.
