On Memorial Day weekend in May (25-28), we will be attending Gate City’s Spring Fling in New Hampshire. This is an ‘NCRS type’ judged show and is held on the grounds of the Anheuser Busch/Merrimack with the Clydesdales on the premises. If you want to see how your Corvette stacks up to others, this is an excellent event to find out. We are staying at the Holiday Inn on Amherst Road. The flyer is not yet published but you can check: http://gatecitycorvetteclub.com/ If you attend, look for Cathy with the NCM/Randy and Judy store booth.

ARMED FORCES DAY
2018-05-19 | NY
ARMED FORCES DAY —
Armed Forces Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in May. Thanks to President Harry S. Truman, it’s a day to pay special tribute to the men and women of the Armed Forces. President Truman led the effort to establish a holiday in order for citizens to unite and to honor our military heroes for their patriotic service in support of the United States of America.
Let’s all take time to celebrate this special day by wearing red, white and blue; flying the American Flag, talking with or writing to a military member, donating to military-based organizations, or sending care packages for those serving overseas.
A special THANK YOU to all of our Members who have served in support of our Country!

LAST CRUISE - 2017
2017-11-12 09:45 - 16:00 | NY
This event is hosted by Jim Wheeler — please contact Jim if you want to join in on this cruise (email: wheelj@sage.edu)
Sunday, November 12, 2017 — Cruise over to North Adams – Lunch at the Golden Eagle Restaurant – Cruise back home.
We will meet at the Park-n-Ride lot on RT 4 & Bloomingrove Rd. at 9:45 with a 10 AM departure. Please be on time. Coming from the East side of the river, the parking lot is just South of RT 43 on the right. Coming from the West, Exit 8 off I-90 to first light, turn right to end, then turn right again, – the lot is on the left.
We will travel out RT 43 to North Adams and turn right on RT 2, then on to the Golden Eagle Restaurant on the hair pin turn overlooking North Adams for lunch. Good food and a great view. Ideal for pictures. After lunch if still open we’ll make a stop at the Natural Bridge State park just before North Adams — it’s a natural wonder. Then we’ll continue back on Rt 2 or if you would like a little longer ride Rt 7. If you still have your Corvette on the road, bring it … if not, Vettes are not required, so you can bring your daily driver.
Since reservations will be made for lunch, please respond to Jim Wheeler (email: wheelj@sage.edu) if you are planning to attend. Cut off date will be Thursday by the end of the day November 9th.

Thanks!
