Steve Parrish Joins One Acre Club
 

When it comes to being a Corvette Enthusiast, it’s hard to get more enthusiastic than Steve Parrish. He attends events, he has taken Museum deliveries on two Vettes, purchased raffle tickets, and promotes the Corvette lifestyle to anyone who will listen. After winning a Z06 in one of our raffles, he made the pledge to join the One Acre Club using the installment plan. True to his word, he did.

“I want to purchase this acre as a tribute to the workers who do such an outstanding job building this car at the plant.” Steve says. “I also want to dedicate it to the members of the Corvette Racing Team. It is because of all of them that we have this amazing car to enjoy. The Motorsports Park will be the ultimate tribute to them, giving us and generations to come, a place to experience what this car can do.”
