Cars Under the Stars, August 14th

The 2010 show was the twentieth anniversary of the Cars Under the Stars.

The Cars Under the Stars car show with our club's new sponsor, Village Chevrolet, on the evening of August 14th was a success! We registered 50 Corvettes and 45 non-Corvettes. The Best in Show trophy was earned by Tim Cossette and his 1963 Corvette. Congratulations to Tim and our twenty other trophy winners.

Many compliments were heard from the attendees, and the weather was beautiful until the last half hour when showers broke up our raffle and trophy presentations, forcing us to crowd inside. The food grilled on-site by Village Meats & Deli was delicious and the music and trivia questions by Chuck Brost of Tunes to Go kept us dancing and guessing.

We are grateful to Grant Osgood, general manager of Village Chevrolet, and his staff for all their support. Also thank you to our other show co-sponsors: Corvette Specialties, Corvette International Inc., Opportunity Partners, and LeRoy's Customs.

Finally, a big thank you to all of our volunteers from the club; without you, we couldn't have had this delightful gathering of car aficionados.

See you at the 2011 show!
