New member counts for the first 4 months of 2008 are down abit from the near record pace of 2007:
 
Jan 08:  96  vs  Jan 07: 122
Feb 08: 59  vs  Feb 07: 111
Mar 08: 93  vs  Mar 07: 108
Apr 08:  73  vs  Apr 07: 98
 
Only 4 months in all of 2007 had fewer than 100 new members sign on so 2008 is off to a slow start.  Hopefully the pace will pick up for the rest of the year.

According to the stats, only 2315 of the 542,861 Sharks built are registered here...that would seem to leave another 540,546 cars out there....looking for a home at C3VR.
Discounting the ones that have passed on to Corvette Heaven, that's still a lot of Sharks that should be here...where could they all be?

Looks like we all need to get out there and spread the word!


btw...do all of the present members have their cars registered(in the database)here??? It only takes a minute, ya'll, so if ya haven't done it, take the time to do so. Adams' Apple2008-05-02 05:13:17

The slow growth trend has continued through 2008 until recently.  Thanks to the presence of C3VR at "Corvettes at Carlisle" and "MidAmerica's Funfest" August and September topped the century mark in new members for the first time this year.
 
May 08: 85 vs May 07: 114
Jun 08: 86 vs Jun 07: 92
Jul 08: 66 vs Jul 07: 116
Aug 08: 101 vs Aug 07: 108
Sep 08: 103 vs Sep 07: 126
 
Being seen and talking to folks certainly has an impact on membership growth...!!!
