Spring is Here!
Don't Miss All the
CCC Events |
 |
Spring is here... so it's time to get out the lawn
mower, plant those flowers, put down fresh mulch and of course,
wash the Corvette so it's ready to drive. As the weather
heats up so does the Chicago Corvette Club event calendar.
May is a very busy month for the CCC, so make sure to mark your
calendar to ensure you don't miss out on the 6 events
planned.
May 3rd, Sunday - Picture Day on Route 66 in Wilmington, IL
May 16th, Saturday - Blooming Fest in West Chicago, IL
- May 16th the CCC will be hosting a Wheels
exhibit at the West Chicago Blooming Fest. The event
is a car display open to all make and model cars. The
event will be held in the City Hall Parking lot with 'goodie
bags' for the first 50 cars and prizes in several
categories.
May 20th, Wednesday - Indy 500 Track Day in Indianapolis, IN
- Ever wonder how cool it would be to take a lap around
the legendary Indianapolis Motor Speedway? Then rev up your
engines for the

you can do just that! Experience this unique opportunity of
taking a lap around the track in your own car.
May 20th, Wednesday - CCC Meeting in Naperville/Warrenville,

I-57 to check out the racing event and enjoy a meal at
Cody's Western Steakhouse.
