A few years ago, several local Corvette owners cruised over to say hi to Our Marines and drop off phone cards and magazines. Does anyone know if there are any plans to do this again?? They also did a little impromptu car show and served a few meals to our marines. Ive been saving my car magazines since, so I have quite a few (5 6 boxes). Anything For our Troops.

Not sure if they still do it or not. I would join in if they do. I have been thinking about trying to have a car show on base to raise money for the wounded warrior battalion. I have a few friends that are over there.

Like I said, it shouldnt be that hard to do. I just have to make sure I have enough interest in it before I do it.
