Celebrating 65 Years!
Capital
City Corvette Club celebrates our 65th anniversary this year.
We have enjoyed getting together for special events this year, including a photo shoot for the fall cover of Blue Bars Magazine. Our 65th Anniversary Celebration Party was held at Bob and Shalimar's home on June 29. Members came together for a potluck, featuring Bob's Burgers and Susie's Hot Dogs, pictures by the pond and we even had a funkhana on the lawn. Check out our Event Flyers page and Calendar for some of the exciting events we still have planned this year.
We are also celebrating the 70th birthday of the Corvette this year!

Are You Receiving Club Emails?
Some email service providers direct messages sent to multiple addresses straight to spam. Please check your spam folder so that you don't miss the monthly newsletter and messages about meetings and other events. It may help to add the following addresses to your email address book: 4c.president@cccorvette.org and 4c.board@cccorvette.org. We went through a process to get those two addresses white listed, but we're still slipping through the cracks.
