The <strong>Central</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Corvette Club was<br />
chartered in 1991 for the owners <strong>of</strong> the only<br />
real AMERICAN sports car, the awesome<br />
CORVETTE. It's a social organization with<br />
activities that provide enjoyment for the true<br />
Corvette lover.<br />
Due to temporary space constraints at our<br />
meeting site, <strong>Central</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>Corvettes</strong> has<br />
closed its meetings to new membership<br />
and to any visitors as <strong>of</strong> July <strong>2024</strong>. We<br />
hope to open it up again in early 2025.<br />

ACTIVITY<br />
REPORT<br />
Submitted by<br />
Gary Linsner,<br />
VP Activities<br />
We have finally made it to <strong>September</strong> and hopefully the weather will change for the better. With the milder<br />
weather come more activities and an opportunity to drive and show <strong>of</strong>f out cars. There are a few car shows<br />
on the list <strong>of</strong> scheduled events and some do not have a run leader. If one <strong>of</strong> them strikes your fancy, let me<br />
know and you can be in charge. EAA movie night returns in <strong>September</strong> and it is always a fun event. As I<br />
am writing this, some <strong>of</strong> our members are on a pilgrimage to the Mother Ship, i.e. Bowling Green, Kentucky.<br />
We wish them a safe journey and a happy return.
