Rick,

I have 18 Beachcomber Vettes and 24 folks committed so far. Looks like the weather is going to cooperate (thanks Jack!) :party:

Jack, Ron offered to come a little early and I should be able to get some southside people to volunteer to come around 11:30..to help get them parked..We always have a few show up early..We will put them to work...
You guys on the Northside, just enjoy your cruise over..
It is awsome to see 20 plus Vettes single file riding in...
Mayor Holley from Portsmouth told me tonight he was coming as well with his Vette..
See you saturday
Stay safe
Rick

I think it's your weather that is generating all those emails. It's been below freezing up here the last two days. We expect balmy southern 70+ temps from you Jack.

I'm coming alone so I can definitely make it to the BK in Hampton. :steering:

Dear Tony-From WVEC Channel 13
We have received your comment and will get back with you shortly.

***************** Your feedback *****************
Just a note that about 100 Corvettes will be at Waterside Saturday March 27 from about 12:30pm until about 4:00pm. They will be parked between the Hooters and the berth for The Spirt of Norfolk. This is an unofficial spring kick off event that has grown from about 20 cars to about 100 in 3 years. Cars are expected from Maryland, NC, and Richmond as well as the Hampton Roads area. Since its right around the corner from your station it might be a good photo op for a community interest story.

Jack, I will let you provide the directions to Waterside from the out lying areas..
Once you get to the "Waterside Market place" on Waterside Drive..drive PAST the Waterside blue roof building on your left and MAKE A LEFT U-TURN at the NEXT stop light..There will be a driveway on your right and you will turn in there....
Myself or someone will be there "waving" at you with PARKING PASSES.. and directing the Corvettes to drive down the sidewalk to the parking area...where we will get everyone Parked..
This will be the exact same entry route as last year for those who were here..
Hope this helps..
Stay safe
Rick
