R8C Reunion Added to 2010 Event Schedule
 It's back by popular demand! The National Corvette Museum has added the R8C Reunion to the 2010 Calendar of Events. The event will become a staple for the Museum, being offered annually for past R8C and Xperience participants.
"Usually we rotate between R8C and Pace Car Reunions. With the 15th Anniversary event this year we didn't have either so it threw our rotation off by a year," said Roc Linkov, NCM Events Manager. "Many of our previous participants enjoy the camaraderie the event offers and didn't want to wait until 2011, so we added it to the schedule."
Each year, Reunion participants will take road trips with the direction they go changing each year. This year's event will take place around August 11-14 but in the future it will take place in June. |

PILGRIMAGES:
The Archer Family
A NEW eNews feature, will include stories periodically on folks that make a "pilgrimage" to the National Corvette Museum. Our first story inspired this feature, and what better month than November to talk about Pilgrimages!
"I am a Corvette fan and visit Bowling Green every year during our family vacation to the U.S.A. every fall," wrote Keith Archer of Youngs Point, Ontario Canada. "I've told my wife that every highway to Florida goes through Bowling Green!!"
"I have been to the museum and the Assembly plant several times and look forward to our annual visit. Pictured is son, Ryan, proudly wearing his "Corvette" hat. These pictures were taken two summers ago and though the hat is faded and ragged now, Ryan wears it every day. He does not go anywhere without his Corvette hat."
"I feel it is important, especially in these tough economic times, that the people involved with the design, production and maintaining the history of the Corvette know that what they do does make a difference and has such a big influence on young children like my son Ryan," added Keith.
While Keith does not currently own a Corvette, he already has personalized plates for his next one: LVBWLGRN, which stands for Love Bowling Green. Keith, wife Karen, 4-year-old son Ryan and 2-year-old daughter Danielle visited us on Tuesday.
