As folks arrive home, i'd love for you to post your comments, good or bad, about your experience, so that those that weren't there can get a feel for what it was like.
Thanks!

We really enjoyed the event and the way Mike and his family and staff rolled out the red carpet and made us feel really special the entire time we were there. It was well worth the trip.

Really?  You have to ask?
 
Words can't describe it, but if I had to choose one, I'd pick "incredible"

Dan, in the past three years, after gathering with my C3VR friends, I have heard the same thing - "it's gonna be hard to beat this one"
 
Not that there's any need or requirement for one gathering to be better than the last (or any others), but amazingly, each year has seemed better than the others.  I wouldn't hold your breath that future gatherings can't top this one (although I do agree it is a very high bar)

What can I say that hasn't already been said.  The Yager's & crew went above & beyond to make it an unbelieveable event.  The MAM facility is awesome - a balance of technology with individual hand work to create quality interior and custom products.  Everyone at MAM took the time to answer any question asked - from Deb our "hostess" all the way up to Mike Yager himself; Frank asked Kenny Yager about the shape of our new t-top weatherstripping vs. old (still leaks...lol) and said we would email him pics, but Kenny insisted on going outside to see the car himself & spent 15 mins with Frank & the car.  They opened not only their facility & home to us, but also opened their hearts.  When Mike said he considered us family - he meant it.

All I can say in addition to the above, is that if you missed this one you should be kicking yourself! Probably the best event I have ever been to (maybe the furthest away, too!), starting with the Corvette America tour! Everyone to a person seemed to enjoy every part of this event. I am STILL flying from this one!
