Black Hills Corvette Classic
2024-07-17 - 2024-07-20
Several club members will be heading to South Dakota! Ed Bickham of our club spoke at the February business meeting discussing this event. The Black Hills Corvette Club (BHCC) hosts an annual event which is a drive across South Dakota! The event starts on the east side of South Dakota in Souix Falls on Wednesday with events all day from 9:00AM-10:00PM, Thursday is the drivers meeting at 7:30AM. The caravan starts at 8:00AM to begin the 390-mile drive across the state to Spearfish on the west side of South Dakota. Arriving around 2:00PM there is hotel registration at the Holiday Inn until 5:00PM and then festivities at the hotel continue through 9:00PM. On Friday, there are guided and self-guided tours, a poker run, auto cross, a mystery brunch run, with vendors all day. The evening has a “Vette Street USA” in downtown Spearfish with a car show, entertainment, and plenty of food and drink. Then on Saturday, more guided and self-guided tours, a poker run, a dyno challenge, 70’s Corvette showcase with lunch, vendors all day, culminating with an evening awards banquet and farewell party. A link describing this is here. Also Motor Trend has a webpage for this event when it was held in 2018 including a video and photos. The webpage is here. Whew!
If interested, this link also has their registration and accommodations for both in Souix Falls and Spearfish. He’s been planning the hotel arrangements prior to this event to get us from here in Southeast Virgina to Souix Falls. There is some urgency here since the Holiday Inn in Spearfish is expected to sell out by the end of February. You would need to book this early and hope they still have rooms. A link to the Holiday Inn’s contract for the stay during this event in Spearfish is here. The contract identifies the stay is not refundable after March 1st when they charge for the first night of the stay.
Overall, with the drive to Souix Falls and then the drive back from Spearfish after the event it’s a 9 or more days round trip from here in Southeast Virginia. Ed is our lead for this event. For more information contact him at 757-434-3046.

For those who do not know Extortion 17 refers to the call sign used for the helicopter transporting special ops personnel which was shot down over Afghanistan on August 6th, 2011. Here is a link to a good write up about this tragedy. Once the ride is over, you can go or stay at Lendy’s Cafe for lunch and beverages.

NCRS 2024 Hampton Roads, VA National Convention
At our July 2nd Business Meeting, Dwight Farmer was a guest speaker who was very knowledgeable about the NCRS and the upcoming convention. I had the opportunity to sit next to him after the meeting while having dinner at Reginella’s. I’d asked about which day(s) would be best to visit during the convention. He said Tuesday or Wednesday. Since Tuesday, August 6th is our monthly business meeting, it would be better to plan a day trip for Wednesday, August 7th to visit the convention. Reviewing the convention calendar (here) for Wednesday, we’ll have a group arrive at the Convention Center before 9AM to park and enter. Spend as long as we wish with a break for lunch possibly there or nearby; we can decide while there. Also, when ready to leave we can depart as a group or individually. Considering traffic at the HRBT, we should leave 2-3PM to head home. For those wishing to go we can expect to pay $5.00/car to park and then $10/person donation to enter the Convention. No need to drive your corvette; of course, unless you want to! I’ve set up an RSVP (below) for the Wednesday, August 7th visit.
Southside beachcombers can meet Bill Kaelin at 7:45AM behind the Bojangles at the Southern Shopping Center located at 7519 Tidewater Dr, Norfolk, VA 23505 (the near the interchange of I-64 and Tidewater Dr). We’ll roll at 8:00AM and head to the convention center to hopefully arrive before 9AM.
Suffolk beachcombers can meet Ed Bickham at 8:00AM the Applebee’s located at 103 Lake View Pkwy, Suffolk, VA 23435.
Or… if you prefer, just meet the group at the convention center at 9AM, just let me know your choice so we can meet up upon arrival
Here is a list of attendees for the day trip to the Convention on Wednesday, August 7th:

Bill Kaelin
Ed Bickham
Joe Walsh
Al Plotnik
Rich Gatling

NCRS will celebrate its 50th anniversary at the 2024 Convention in Hampton Roads and we are planning some very special events to honor this milestone, including reflections on our long history from surviving founding members.

A city with an old soul and a youthful enthusiasm. A Coastal Virginia vacation destination with fascinating sites to see and interesting things to do. A convention city with flexible facilities and a confident, can-do attitude. Situated in the middle of the Hampton Roads region and the heart of the Mid-Atlantic, Hampton welcomes vacationers and meeting attendees alike with charming hospitality, multifaceted attractions and activities and an atmosphere of discovery.
Considering Hampton’s coastal heritage, fresh and local isn’t a trend. It’s a way of life. We were built on our connection with the sea and the local watermen and farmers who bring the freshest ingredients from the docks and farms to your table. From craft breweries to incredible family- and chef–operated restaurants to every fast food option imaginable, you’ll never have the same meal twice.

2024 National Corvette Caravan
2024-08-26 - 2024-08-31 | National Corvette Museum, 350 Corvette Dr, Bowling Green, KY, 42101, United States
Often referred to as the world’s largest moving automotive event, the National Corvette Caravan is a celebration of America’s Sports Car, culminating in Bowling Green, Kentucky for the anniversary celebration of the National Corvette Museum. Hosted only once every five years, the next event is slated for Labor Day Weekend 2024 and will mark the Museum’s 30th Anniversary.
Here is a YouTube link to get a glimpse of what this event is about!!!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xL0IOmdJwuA.
If you’re interested in joining the Caravan event, you can register with our region’s caravan. We are part of the North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and Maryland region. Below is the itinerary for our region:

Monday August 26, 2024: Asheville NC. Registration packet pickup. Evening Meet and Greet.
Tuesday August 27, 2024: Asheville NC. Registration packet pickup. Lunch at Deer Park Inn at the Biltmore. Depart for Sevierville TN.
Wednesday August 28, 2024: Sevierville TN. Depart for Bowling Green KY.

To join our regional caravan, you need to fill out and mail in the form located here ($150/person). Know that when you fill out this regional form to mail, you can check a box if you need a room in Bowling Green and what is your departure date from Bowling green. Other Beachcombers who have done so, received information about the hotel arrangements to be made in Bowling Green, Asheville and Sevierville (more below). Know that Kim Sheldon is our regional Captain. Her e-mail is: kimsheldonsc@gmail.com and Bob Meyer is the Virginia Captain. His email is: bobmeyerva@gmail.com.
Regional caravans will form and join other caravans as they travel across the United States to meet in Bowling Green, Kentucky for four days of festivities at the National Corvette Museum. The Museum is located at I-65, exit 28 in South Central Kentucky and is open daily, 8am to 5pm Central Time. Stay up to date with the Museum by subscribing to emails online here.
2024 National Corvette Caravan – All roads lead to Bowling Green, Kentucky for the 30th Anniversary of the National Corvette Museum
You will also need to register with the National Corvette Museum here (per person: Lifetime NCM Members – $50, NCM Members – $60, Non-members – $85). Once registered the Museum should help with hotels in Bowling Green. While in Bowling Green, expect to check in on Wednesday, August 28th, checking out on Saturday (August 31st), Sunday (September 1st), or however long you wish to stay in the area. Beachcombers who are going may organize a follow-on trip or arrange a group to drive home (more to follow).
Here’s what I know… REGISTER AND BOOK NOW!!!
Register for both the regional caravan and at the Museum with the links provided above. Book your hotel night in Asheville, NC. Book your hotel night in Sevierville, TN. Book your nights in Bowling Green, KY. As we get closer BCC will announce what will follow as related to the drive home or another follow-on trip itinerary.
Other Beachcombers have blazed the trail through the registrations and hotel bookings. Regional Caravan information for hotels in Bowling Green, KY, Asheville, NC and Sevierville, TN is here. Note also, the hotels in Asheville, NC also have the same rate for the Sunday night before (August 25th) for those who wish to start early! I also believe that if you register at the Museum, the registration package/email will help with room arrangements during your stay in Bowling Green.
Heldur Liivak has booked the following: Monday, August 26th in Asheville – the Double Tree by Hilton-Biltmore ($139 plus taxes and fees), Tuesday, August 27th in Sevierville, TN – Comfort Suites ($109 plus taxes and fees), Wed-Sun, August 28th, September 1st in Bowling Green KY – Hampton Inn ($247/night INCLUDING taxes and fees). We can all follow suit. To receive these rates for all of the bookings through the regional caravan, tell the reservationist that you’re with the Carolinas/Virginia/Maryland caravan.
On December 1st, I called the Asheville DoubleTree hotel directly at 828-274-1800. They are not sold out for check in on Monday, August 26th, so don’t delay!
Here are the hotels for Tuesday night, August 27th in Sevierville, TN:

Comfort Inn $109 + taxes and fees, phone#: 865-933-3131
Hampton Inn $129 + taxes and fees, phone#: 865-465-0590

2024-09-11 09:02 - 12:02 | Dismal Swamp Canal State Park, 2294 US-17, South Mills, NC, 27976, United States
If you liked the Extortion 17 memorial ride on August 3rd you may be interested in this ride. Our friends at the Virginia Patriot Guard have a ride in remembrance of events from 9/11/2001. This NEVER FORGET escorted ride will start at the Dismal Swamp Canal State Park (the address on this page within the blue box under “VENUES”). From there drive through Camden ending in downtown Elizabeth City. The ride should last between 1/2 hour and 45 minutes and is open to all vehicles. A link to this event on Facebook is here. The event flyer is here.
We need to arrive at park at 8:30AM. The event starts at 9:02AM. The briefing starts at 9:37AM, at 9:59AM will be an invocation by the Chesapeake Fire Chaplain then a moment of silence. The run starts rolling at 10:15AM. It’ll take 20 minutes for all to rollout of the park and start heading for Camden. The ride will be escorted by several local NC police to include county, Elizabeth City, and Currituck departments. The ride ends in downtown Elizabeth City at the Chief Petty Officers Association (CPOA – the address is on this page in the blue box under “VENUES”) which is near the Perry/Performance Chevrolet dealership. The CPOA will be sponsoring a BBQ lunch there and while staged at the park we will be asked if we wish to attend the BBQ so an appropriate amount of food can be prepared. I don’t have the cost for the BBQ, but plan to attend.
We will first meet at the New York Bagel Company (the address is on this page within the blue box under “VENUES”) at 7:45AM and sign our NCCC waiver. Get there earlier if you wish to purchase breakfast (they open at 6:30AM). We’ll leave at 8:00AM and head for the park. If you wish, you can just meet us at the park at 8:30AM.
If interested, please RSVP below, sign up at the September business meeting, or contact me. For below, please let us know where you will first meet the group at either the New York Bagel Company or the Dismal Swamp Canal State Park. Know that if the weather is bad, the ride may be canceled.
Here is a list of Beachcombers (listed by car) who plan to attend and where to first meet the group:

2024 Oceana Air Show
2024-09-20 - 2024-09-22 | Naval Air Station Oceana, 1750 Tomcat Blvd, Virginia Beach, VA, 23460, United States
For many years, the Beachcombers have been supporting the Virginia Patriot Guard Riders with their vignette at the Oceana Air Show. This year will be like last year with our cars on the Tarmac each day of the air show as part of the “Static Display”. We will be adjacent to where the VPG will have their motorcycles (left/southwest of show center). We will be escorting dignitaries in our cars each day of the air show. Knowing the Oceana Air show website (here) indicates the air show is Saturday and Sunday. There is an air show on Friday. The Friday air show is not open to the public. It is open only to DOD members, their families, and STEM 5th graders from local schools. We will open the air show each day. This year’s theme is “Inspire, Educate, Soar”. Our vignette will start at 10:00AM and should be finished around 10:30AM or so. After the vignette, you can leave NAS Oceana or return to the static display and watch the air show. Later if you wish, you will be able to leave before the end of the air show. The air show will end after the Blue Angles fly. They are scheduled to start at 3:00PM.
Lt. Amanda Lee, a graduate of ODU (B.S. in Biochemistry), will be flying Blue Angel #4 (the slot), during the show. The link here has all of the officers on the current Blue Angel’s team. You can read about her, as well as all of the team members.
All drivers and passengers need to be vetted! Alternates too! We will be filling out forms for this special base access. The exception to this is if you have a DOD ID which already gives you base access. Our vetting form was submitted August 28th. So now, only Beachcombers with DOD IDs (or others who are on the vetting paperwork) can fill in if you cannot make it.
With our support each of the 3 days of the air show, we will be needing 6-8 cars each day on Saturday and Sunday. On Friday, we can have 8 cars, but some may not be participating in the vignette. If we already have 8 cars on Friday, 8 on Saturday, 8 on Sunday, please sign up as an alternate for which days you can be available. It is inevitable that personal reasons get in the way of attending, and we need to go down the list of alternates who have been vetted to ensure we have enough cars to support the VPG.
We have a special guest this year! Richard Petty’s grandson, Thad, will be participating in our vignette on Saturday and Sunday! He will be in his NASCAR truck and parked alongside our group. A link to read a little about Thad is here.
Know that this is a rain or shine event! Should the Air Boss running each day’s Air Show decide to cancel/postpone that day’s show due to weather, I’ll let each participant know.
For those interested in knowing more about the Virginia Patriot Guard, you can visit their website here.
We will be staging on base each day at 7:30AM at the Navy Exchange (NEX) which off of Tomcat Blvd and before/outside the Main Gate (Gate 1). The address of the NEX is within the blue “VENUES” box on this page which has a navigation link for your cell phone when driving in your car. We will roll when all participants have arrived or no later than 8:00AM turn left on Tomcat Blvd and proceed through the Main Gate. Once past the Main Gate, we will proceed to where we have our static display which will have us roll through an on-base checkpoint. For participants specific details will be forthcoming with an email each will receive before Monday, September 16th.

35th Anniversary All Corvette Cruise-In
This is a big year for the All Corvette Cruise-In in Manassas Virginia. It’s our 35th Anniversary! Since 1990 the Cruise-In has taken place, rain or shine, balmy weather or heat, even during the pandemic.
It’s also a big year for change: The All Corvette Cruise-In is moving! Not the location, which remains Bomnin Chevrolet, but the day. This year we will be holding the event on Sunday, October 6th. It’s been held in August for so long we thought we’d better get the news of this change out early so everyone can plan accordingly. We’re also changing the time. We’re starting earlier, at 11:00, so those coming from far away can get an earlier start home.
Holding it in October gets us out of the summer heat and humidity; and holding it on Sunday gives us more parking. less interference from folks bringing their pickup trucks in for service, and gives those who work on Saturday a chance to join in. And we’re moving back to the front parking lot, where we’ll get more visibility and attract more visitors.
We’ll have plenty of parking available, along with great food, great people, great music, door prizes, a silent auction,50/50 raffle, and more. With a $25 donation, you’ll receive a goodie bag, a magnetic dash plaque, and a door prize ticket. Register and pay online by September 29th and save $5. All ‘profits’ from the show benefit local charities and the NCM. (Yes, we’ve raised our requested donation a bit. The costs of putting on the show have gone up, but mostly we want to better support our charities.)
Registration is now open at the ODCC website: All Corvette Cruise-in Registration
Their flyer is here. If you’re interested in going, RSVP below.

At this late date, there’s likely no host hotel or set or recommended hotels coming from the QCCC.
Last year, we used the Residence Inn as a place for Beachcombers. Looking (here) for a check-in date of October 18th, check-out of October 20th, at the RESIDENCE INN (By Marriott) Charlotte / Concord located at 7601 Scott Padgett Parkway, Concord, NC, there are only suites available. Refundable king suites are $189/night (member), $199/night (non-member); refundable double-queen suites are $237/night (member), $249/night (non-member). The Residence Inn’s phone number is 1-704-454-7862 should you need to call them. This year each is on their own for room accommodations.
Looking at other hotel options for refundable rooms on September 7th at hotels.com for a check-in on October 18th and check-out on October 20th, there are several within a few miles from the Hendrick Motorsports complex. The search I used is here. There’s a Sleep Inn with free breakfast with a rating of 7.6 for $134/night ($302 total). Best rating is 8.4 and that’s for a Comfort Suites-Concord Mills for $165/night ($373 total). The lowest price (5.4 rating) is the HomeTowne Studios & Suites by Red Roof for $70/night ($158 total). There are other choices many of which are in the high $100s to low $200s per night.
For those traveling to the show, there are currently 5 cars going (as of October 10th). Three cars are leaving Thursday (the 17th) and two are leaving Friday. If you decide to go, let me know which day and I’ll connect you with those traveling that day so you can drive together. IMPORTANT! There is no longer a group meeting at Greenbrier Mall Friday morning. Please contact me!
Also know it’s nice to park as a group during the show. To do so, the group must arrive together to the show. If you don’t, there’s no way to reserve adjacent parking spots!
For the return trip, Preston will not be returning to Virginia Beach on Sunday, but for those wishing to have lunch Sunday at the Childress Vinyards (a favorite restaurant, phone: 336-236-9463) which is located at 1000 Childress Vineyards Rd, Lexington, NC 27295.
