SUMMARY:2024 Oceana Air Show
DESCRIPTION: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. \nLt. 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. \nAll 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. \nWith 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. \nWe 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. \nKnow 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. \nFor those interested in knowing more about the Virginia Patriot Guard\, you can visit their website here. \nWe 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. \nHere are the beachcombers participating (listed by car) each day at the Air Show: \nFriday\, September 20th (cars listed after the 8th are alternates): \n\nBill Kaelin\nMike Ware\nAnnie Lahren\nPete Taylor\nJohnny Jones\nBob Bray\nTom Quicke\nJay Vega\n\n\n\nSaturday\, September 21st (cars listed after the 8th are alternates): \n\n\nDee Dee and Howard Hodges\nWendy Hanson and Bill Kaelin\nLV and Tank Torain\nPreston Powers\nRuth Baum\nTerrie and Kent Wagoner\nAnnie Lahren\nPete Taylor\n\n\n\nSunday\, September 22nd (cars listed after the 8th are alternates): \n\n\nBill Kaelin\nJohn Pitts\nKaren and Dave Ambrose\nAnnie Lahren\nRalph Scichilone\nKristie Hollingsworth\nPete Taylor\nMike Ware\n\n\n\n  \nThese lists will be updated periodically.  These lists last updated on September 21st.

SUMMARY:2024 National Corvette Caravan
DESCRIPTION: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. \nHere is a YouTube link to get a glimpse of what this event is about!!!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xL0IOmdJwuA. \nIf 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: \n\nMonday August 26\, 2024: Asheville NC. Registration packet pickup. Evening Meet and Greet.\nTuesday August 27\, 2024: Asheville NC. Registration packet pickup. Lunch at Deer Park Inn at the Biltmore. Depart for Sevierville TN.\nWednesday August 28\, 2024: Sevierville TN. Depart for Bowling Green KY.\n\nTo 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. \nRegional 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. \n2024 National Corvette Caravan – All roads lead to Bowling Green\, Kentucky for the 30th Anniversary of the National Corvette Museum \nYou 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). \nHere’s what I know…  REGISTER AND BOOK NOW!!! \nRegister 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. \nOther 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. \nHeldur 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. \nOn 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! \nHere are the hotels for Tuesday night\, August 27th in Sevierville\, TN: \n\nComfort Inn $109 + taxes and fees\, phone#: 865-933-3131\nHampton Inn $129 + taxes and fees\, phone#: 865-465-0590\n\nMentioned for Sevierville for Tuesday night was the Fairfield Inn and Suites by Marriott but do not have rates there.  Their phone number is: 865-933-3033. \nI’m not planning to go\, so for anyone who has navigated through these registrations and bookings\, please let me know what you’ve found.  I’ll also start a sign-up/RSVP soon to help all know who is going.

SUMMARY:2024 NCRS National Convention
DESCRIPTION:NCRS 2024 Hampton Roads\, VA National Convention\nAt 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. \nSouthside 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. \nSuffolk beachcombers can meet Ed Bickham at 8:00AM the Applebee’s located at 103 Lake View Pkwy\, Suffolk\, VA 23435. \nOr… 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 \nHere is a list of attendees for the day trip to the Convention on Wednesday\, August 7th: \n\nBill Kaelin\nEd Bickham\nJoe Walsh\nAl Plotnik\nRich Gatling\n\nThis list will be updated periodically.  This list last updated on August 6th. \n  \n \nNCRS 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 very special welcome reception is being planned\, more details to come later\, along with other surprises and activities. A special 50th anniversary remembrance will be given to all registrants. Don’t miss this milestone event\, registration opens February 1st.  A schedule of events is here. \nA 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. \nConsidering 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. \nNCRS to Honor American Heritage Candidates and Previous Recipients at its 50th Anniversary National Convention in 2024\nAll current owners of Corvettes that previously received the prestigious NCRS American Heritage Award and candidates for that award in 2024 are invited to be part of a special display of these unique cars at the NCRS National Convention in August 2024. This will be the 50th anniversary of the 1974 founding of the NCRS. All participants will be honored by special placement in the show hall and they will be presented with a commemorative plaque to memorialize this display. \nPlan to enjoy all of these activities as well as some very special Corvette displays and unique Corvettes. Please register as soon as possible beginning February 1\, 2024 either online (greatly preferred and pay a discounted registration fee of $180!) or through the US mail. ($200).

SUMMARY:Black Hills Corvette Classic
DESCRIPTION: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! \nIf 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. \nOverall\, 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.
