[QUOTE=Norsky]I also think it would be great to include all C3s in the event.  Picking a date in May or June would probably be the best.  Too early and folks living in the northern tier of states may not have their cars out of winter hibernation yet.[/QUOTE]
 
How about the third weekend in May.
 
The weather is starting to get nice.
 
It's after Mother's Day and before Memorial Day.
 
June starts to get busy with weddings, graduations, final exams, car shows, cruise-ins.
 
Any other ideas?

Adam:
 
I believe holding the 2011 annual meeting at Mid America would be great.  I think it would be a great opportunity, especially if all C3's were included.  I especially liked the idea from Targa Blue 72 about some exclusive activiyies for C3VR members only.  I think we should make this happen for 2011.  Let me know if I can help in any way

I think it's a great idea.  Thumbs Up  I like having it open to all C3s too.  C3VR could recruit members, and we could talk about what kind of products we'd like to see MAM sell for our cars.  It's a win win for everyone.

Vette(s): 1973 Coupe -black/red motion stripe, 427 big block,aluminum heads,solid roller cam, 500HP Nitrous plate, QA1 coilovers, 4" drop, 18's 275 F 335 R Racing seats w/ 5 pt. harness. REAL STREET

Great exsposure for C3VR. I vote yes to the location, yes to all C3s, yes to time of year. Great idea to have host hotel for C3VR members only. But most exciting to see Corvette Summer car. What a influence it was on a 16 year old. Mikes museum has a lot of cool cars to see. Keep Branson, Mo in mind for future events, lot's to do and see.

[QUOTE=Adam Wartell] [QUOTE=LukesVette]I think some recognition to C3VR is in order for the event, however, I agree with Joel - all sharks in the pond!!Cool I'm in - the Lukester should be well broken in by then....
 
I'll man the grill!!Thumbs Up
[/QUOTE]

Believe me, I will make sure that C3VR's name is all over this event no matter what!

Adam, as you know , I am in the planning stages for the CAC event in 2010, we are set for the second weekend in June.  There is no shortage of things to do and places to go and they are all close by. After this one is behind me, I will jump in here and help in any way I can to make sure this is the best gathering ever for the C3VR. As things progress and we get our agenda down, I will send it to you along with a list of all other possibilities discussed. Mike will also advertise this event locally and nationally in his catalog and it will be no small mention, I think you will be impressed.
I would vote to open it to all C3's , talk about a membership drive...... 
 
I will be in touch and again when it is time, you will have my help and full support for this, unless Suzy won't let me ....lol
 
 
It was a blast seeing everyone at Funfest again and hopefully some of can get together before too long regionally again....
 
 
Scott...
