Info

Pacific Central Northern California, Northern Nevada, Utah This is a revised post to the home page for the Northern California – Northern Nevada – Utah section of the 2014 National Corvette Caravan. I am Don Herzer, Publications Director for the Western States Corvette Council (WSCC). I served as Captain of the NorCal section of the 2014 Caravan. Since we had a great time for the most part, they asked me to return as Captain for 2019. I have elected to give our section a nickname – Pacific Central Corvette Caravan – which is easily further shortened to Pacific Central and PCCC. This is much less cumbersome than listing the whole three states. Also, if I shorten it to NorCal (as I did in 2014), then N. Nevada and Utah feel left out. Please note that even if you are not going all the way to Bowling Green, you are welcome to join in the Caravan out of CA as far as you like, or just join us at the launch site (TBD), as many have done in the past. Our Route: Contrary to my initial posting, I have decided against replicating the 2014 itinerary. Instead we will take a new route favoring scenic less travelled roads, with fun activities and visits to unique places along the way. I am still ironing out the details, but here is a rough outline: • Day 1: We will launch in the morning on Thurs. 8/22 somewhere in the Fairfield area and take highway 50 through the Sierra, arriving in Carson City in time for lunch and maybe other activities, and then head to Fallon, NV for other activities and spend the night.
• Day 2 (Friday 8/23): We will travel to Salina, UT along the Loneliest Hiway in the US, with fun activities TBD. • Day 3 (Saturday 8/24): Tentatively set to end in Estes Park, CO, Travelling through Rocky Mt. Ntl. Park. • Day 4 (Sunday 8/25): Activities around Golden, CO. Overnight in Fort Morgan, CO. • Day 5 (Monday 8/26): End up in St. Joseph, MO. • Day 6 (Tuesday 8/27): Get to Effingham, IL and visit Mid-America. • Day 7 (Wednesday 8/28): On to Bowling Green. We will link up with the So. CA section before entering Bowling Green so there will be a combined CA/NV group entering the NCM. Registration for both the Caravan and the festivities is not open at this time. Note that the 2019 Corvette Caravan and the NCM 25th Anniversary are two separate events, each with their own registration, which is expected to be available on the NCM web site starting in mid-Sept. In the meantime, I will be working on blocking sets of rooms at hotels along the route, but I don’t expect registration to be available until approximately fall of 2018. I will be compiling all this and much more into a Route Book that will be available to registered participants Spring 2019. If you are serious about going on this section of the Caravan, please send me an email so I can keep you informed about lodging and optional activities that we may set up.

If you have no idea what going on the Caravan would be like, here is a link to a write-up that I did about the experiences we had on the 2014 Caravan: 2014 Caravan Experience You can help promote the Caravan by decorating your car with a window sticker, flag(s), and/or a rear window "Follow Me To Bowling Green" decal – all available from me. Contact me for pricing and availability. If you would like to volunteer to help me in this venture, I would welcome that. I will also be looking for sponsors to help defray some of the costs.
