I am planning to attend the NCM event in 2014, so it would be good to see a lot of other C3VR members there.
You need to make hotel reservations well in advance, but I believe many of the caravan leaders reserve large blocks of rooms. If they don't fill by the cutoff date, they will be released, so you might get on a waiting list.
In 2009 we stayed in Cave City. That worked out well.

Seems to me we should poll the group and set it up for the NCC in 2014!!! 
We have the 2013 coming up in June here in CO and can set the final plans during that gathering!!
CAVE CITY here we come!!

Just to be clear, the 2014 NCC to Bowling Green is in the East Region of the country (click here for a map of regions). The Official C3VR Member Gathering for 2014 is slated to be in the Middle Region. I don't mean to say we can't talk about a group of C3VR folks getting together for the NCM's 20th anniversery. I just want everyone to keep in mind that the two gatherings are, as of now, totally separate events.

Vette(s): 1972 conv, 4-speed, 350, 200hp, numbers match, rally wheels, war bonnett yellow w/white top. good condition, nice driver.
I had mentioned this possibility a while ago when I heard of the 2014 caravan. We are signed up and plan to attend. We will be leaving Carlisle with a group leaving on Sunday afternoon. Hope we can incorperate the gathering in it as well. If not "AT" the 14' event then within the same time frame. Maybe the following days after Labor Day. Save your pennies, we could attempt a Corvette overload.

Just getting this back in view. Time to think is NOW. Later may be to late.
I just got a message from the NCC national chairman. The assembly plant will be opening soon for tours. They are not booking tours yet, but when they do they will fill up fast for that last week in August 2014.

From the Bowling Green News:
Tatman (Corvette Plant Manager) said he knows the public is eager to get back into the plant, but he wants to ensure that employees are in a production rhythm. He expects tours, which generally are given to thousands of people each year, will return in late October.
Here is the link for the plant website: http://www.bowlinggreenassemblyplant.com/

My understanding about plant tours during the NCM Caravan is that they will be continuous, not groups by appointment. They did this in 2009 and it is the best way to get a large number of people through the plant.
If you want a plant tour some other time, you can make an appointment.

WAIT............... Hold the phone.................. Did I miss something...............
I just got a post from on the 2014 Caravan Chat that C3VR Members were going to be staying
in Cave City............... What hotel; when; how.......... Have I been asleep...........
Does my internet not work????????? Help me out here.........
Tom Holbrook (2TONE82)..........
P.S. I will be coming down with the Michigan Caravan but would like to hang with my C3VR friends and family....................
I don't know of any hotel for C3VR members. I think everyone is on their own.
Grab a place when you can. There are several motels in Cave City or near by.
I plan to stay in Mammoth Cave Park, but I haven't made a reservation yet.
