Corvette Celebration Begins in One Week

One week from today, our 13th Anniversary Corvette Celebration will kick off, and you can still be a part of the excitement by registering on-site at the Museum.

A Museum event is unlike any other and gives participants a chance to meet and greet the legends of Corvette, enjoy scenic tours to Kentucky landmarks, hear informative seminars, be a part of the memorable Corvette Hall of Fame induction and much more. We hope you can join us as we celebrate our 13th Anniversary August 30 – September 1! View our event agenda online at: http://www.corvettemuseum.com/registration/celebration/agenda.shtml


Club Display Winners Drawn

Congratulations to the following clubs drawn as the winners of our October, November and December Club Display features – Permian Basin, Classical Glass of Tacoma and the Grand Sport Registry.

Each month, a different club will be the highlighted exhibit in our front turntable and clubs drawn will select a club member’s car to be displayed along with memorabilia and collectibles to represent their club. You can be part of the next club feature drawing by submitting your club’s name to Stephanie Morrill at: stephanie@corvettemuseum.com Participating clubs must belong to the NCM as a Business/Club or Business/Club Lifetime member to be a part of the drawing.
