Red, Black, Red, Black, Red, Black, we came in a pack LOL
 
 
Well today was a great day for the C3VR in the Great Northwest.  Today at the "Summer's End Car Show" in Lacey, WA the C3VR won the award for the "Most Club Members Participation"  Clap
 
The day started out really wet and raining but quickly stopped and dried up.  We did have to shame one member who lived just around the corner from the show into bringing out his freshly detailed Vette, I won't mention any names here Wink  And no it wasn't me LOL  All in all it turned out to be a great day, and I think everyone had a great day.
 
Oh ya, it was great to welcome Eddie (Rafterman) and his GF to the family at the show today.  Sorry Eddie I didn't want to chop up her name, my spellings bad enough.
 
Here are some pics from the show Thumbs%20Up
 
 
And heres the gang and our award, it's a folding chair with the dash plaque on the front and the award won on the back.  We still have not figured out how the whole C3VR is going to share this award LOL

Wow those are some GREAT pictures there Mark!

Yes that was my 1st show and I had a great time. I would do it again no problem. What a great bunch of guys.

Larry, yes I HAVE THE BANNER! I am guessing the look of fear on my face when someone jokingly said something about keeping it had to be priceless.

Now I just have to get it back to ya.

Again, great day with great folks.

Even with the early rain it was well worth getting the car wet. I'm looking forward to our next gathering.

They had initially said that the C3VR was from Olympia, WA but I had the announcer correct that and say that we were an online club with members all over the world. cilrah2008-09-21 17:37:29

I talk to Megan about the C3VR everytime I see her, I guess maybe if I become a sponsor she'd put one on there.
 
No seriously, I never thought about that, I've gotta get her a sticker cause I'm sure she'd put it in the window, good idea Joel Clap
