Road Tour Etiquette
Just a reminder on best practices for when we are on our road tour cruises. The Road Tour Etiquette is posted in the member portal and provides some guidelines on what to do when on a cruise. Please take some time to read this document and remember the advice while on our drives.
Ontario Museum Caravan (National Corvette Museum 30th Anniversary)
A group of active members will be joining the Ontario Caravan tour heading to the 30th Anniversary of the Corvette Museum. The group will be extending their time in the US and will be gone from Saturday, August 24th to Monday, September 9 th . Although no club sanctioned events are scheduled during this time period, there are local car shows and NEWSLETTER cruise nights that will be on, and we encourage members to support these events. If you are planning on attending a cruise night or show, you can let people know by posting on the CCC Group page on Facebook. Local organizers always appreciate when local clubs come out to support their events. All events are posted on the Ottawa Car Scene site at the following link, http://ottawacarscene.com/.
50/50 Draws
Our 50/50 draws continue to take place at each of our events. The lucky winners at our last draws were Debbie Courneyea, Kim Rail and Sue Baggs. Debbie took home $90, Kim took home $105 and Sue Baggs took home $50. The draws will continue to be held at as many events as possible during the 2024 season.
50th Anniversary Celebration 2025
Information continues to be added to the 50th Anniversary page on the website. Watch for a couple of separate emails coming soon asking for help with a couple of planned events that will be part of the weekend celebration. As mentioned in our last newsletter, we have added an update from the 50th Committee that provides some details on the main event. If you know any former members that may be interested in attending next year’s main event, let them know that they can email us at info@capitalcorvetteclub.ca to get on the invite list.
Promotional T-shirts
The order for the 50th Anniversary t-shirts has arrived and most have been distributed at our events. We will continue to bring the t-shirts to upcoming events but you can contact John Scapillati (scap@rogers.com) to make arrangements to pick yours up.
Looking forward to seeing everyone again at upcoming events!
