Two Days Left to Pre-Register for the Bash Event

There are two days left to pre-register for the C5/C6 Bash event scheduled for April 23-25! Pre-registration ends tomorrow - Friday, April 10. Event festivities include road tour excursions, a car show, drag racing, autocross and much more. You will have the chance to preview the recently expanded areas of the Museum while enjoying the company of old friends and new! Over 760 enthusiasts are already pre-registered!

Our media friends from Corvette Enthusiast Magazine, Corvette Fever, and others will be here to capture the excitement, so be ready to show and shine! GM team members Harlan Charles, Kirk Bennion and Tadge Juechter will be here as well to be a part of the fun and to introduce the 2010 models. Kirk will also be leading one of the “free” road tours offered to event participants! View the online agenda and register online.

We have had many inquiries about the registration process for the National Corvette Caravan versus 15th Anniversary Celebration. These registrations are separate and you will need to register for both parts if you plan to participate in both. The Caravan registration entitles you to the perks associated with activities planned along your caravan’s route, but does not cover you for activities at the Museum.

The 15th Anniversary event is a totally separate process and entitles you to be a part of the activities planned upon your arrival as part of the caravan. If you have pre-registered for the Caravan, you will want to return to our website and reserve your spot on the activities planned at the Museum. If you are only participating in the 15th Anniversary festivities and are not planning to be a part of the Caravan, register online for the event festivities. Registration for both the National Corvette Caravan and 15th Anniversary Celebration is available via our website.
