Paul & Joan Herzing Join One Acre Club

Board Member Paul Herzing became a Corvette enthusiast as a boy when he first saw a 1963 split window Corvette.

Eventually he bought one and has owned other Corvettes along the way up to his most recent, a 2012 Supersonic Blue ZR1. As an avid Corvette enthusiast and strong supporter of the Museum, the Motorsports Park caught his interest right away.

“As a business person I can understand how this could be very beneficial to the Museum and to the Corvette community. It’s great advertising for Corvette, great for the Museum, and with it being a test track for Corvette Racing, it is just a perfect fit. There’s no better place for it to be. My wife Joan and I thought about it and decided that this is something that we wanted to support and there was no better day to do it than the day we were going to the Museum to take delivery of our new ZR1.”

So on March 12, 2012, they took delivery of their new car, joined the One Acre Club, and then, as long as they were at it, became Lifetime Members. “The National Corvette Museum is our home away from home. We are proud to be a part of what is going on here.”

The fee is $250 per person and includes the tour and dinner that night featuring Bowling Green Assembly Plant team members involved with the C7 launch. Currently, plant tours are not open to the public, and will not open again until late summer/early fall 2013.
