The High Desert Corvette Club's show was actually a part of the C3VR Gathering in Bend.  It was held in Sisters, OR that year and several of the C3VR group participated in it.

The 5 1/2 hour drive is one way so keep that in mind.

For anyone coming from the east.  The Black Hills Corvette Classic starts in Sioux Falls SD on the 12th and ends up in Spearfish later that week (14th-16th) making is possible to drop in and check it out on the way to WA with a stop at Yellowstone.  This was a huge show in the early 90's when I last attended....now "huger" applies.

Moving the date to the next weekend is out for me - family vacation that is already planned.  And I would not recommend trying to include the Redmond event as part of ours.  That drive is long from my town and I'm two hours closer than Tacoma.  My vote is to keep the date as is.  I guess an option 4 would be move the location closer to Redmond (Hood River, OR?) but not sure if we'd want to make that change after all the votes have been counted and such....

Adam, unless you hear or we see input from a large number of people that are going to skip the C3VR event for the Redmond show, my vote is to save the date. 5 1/2 hours was about two hours over my driving limit for a show and shine, I would have done it we the C3VR group but not on my own. I also believe there are probably more people that have already made plans since we set the original date. Let's save the date !!

I have started to make plans based on the date, so I vote for keeping it. I may go to Redmond on Sunday as it is sorta on my way home.

If there are any C3VR members that are going to miss our Gathering (a once in a while occurance for the NW) because they are going to Redmond, that is their choice.

Let's hear from them now, not a month from now.

I did the Black Hills Classic this year. The cruise-in/ party in Sioux Falls was GREAT. The drive the next day was so-so. I did not attend any of the events in western SD. Dave Wright, if Candi and I get to Washington, I would be interested in going to OR with you. That will help on the bucket list item "attend a Corvette event in all lower 48 states!"

I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

I hope you two can find the time to come to WA. I am 99.9% sure I will be there. And going home by way of OR works for me.
