One sad announcement for those who were not at breakfast on Friday or the show on Saturday: One of our members, Larry Metz passed away on April 24th. He was a regular attendee with a Red 2020 C-8 before he got sick.
Our show was a success with 24 Corvettes in attendance. Bob Rapp won the Huston Motors oil change, Russ Burrier won the $90 50/50 drawing and eight others won door prizes; Keith Lang, Russ Burrier, Jack Murphy, Kathy Rouse, Rollie Walriven, Bob Maiel, and Edde & Tom King!
Edde King reported on several ideas for road trips in the fall and I will follow up with information as plans develop!
Have a great and safe summer, everybody! Friday morning Corvette Breakfasts at Oscar’s Family Restaurant, in Sebring will continue through the summer. Actually, our Corvette Breakfast Meet-Ups happen EVERY Friday morning through the year, except for when Christmas or New Year’s Day falls on a Friday.
See you at our next show will be on October 22, 2022!!!
Lots of miles…lots of smiles!!! – John M.
