President’s Corner

 

Summer is moving right along and the weather has been good for our many Club activities!  In early June a group

of us went to the Saranac Lake Event for the weekend and we all enjoyed ourselves very much.  Good people/good

food/nice Vettes and a lot of fun!  We can not ask for much more than that. 

I want to thank Bill & Bonnie Lado and Bob & Deb Zido for Hosting two of our Mystery Treat Events (June & July). 

I also want to thank Dick & Dot Wooden for organizing Club members to attend the Southerntier Corvette Club “Dillon

Pook” benefit near Chenango Forks.  All were well attended by our Club.  Our Club picnic at Chenango Valley State

Park on the 18th was a big success with twenty-seven members attending.  We played games, socialized and ate the

great Brooks’ chicken.  We ended the day with Jerry & Lanie Cummings taking us on a nice cruise to Pop’s ice cream

place near Binghamton. Thank you Jerry & Lanie.  I want to thank the Picnic Committee (Howard's/Edward's/

Wooden's and Fleming's) for planning and organizing the day! 

 

We still have many events/activities planned for the year.  If you have not yet joined us this year for an event, sign up

for one and have fun with your fellow Club members!

                                                                                             .  On June 23rd the Club had a Mystery Cruise night with fourteen (14) Vettes

                                                          Participating.  We were the guests of the Southerntier Corvette Club

                                                          Cruise-in at Otsiningo Park in Binghamton.  They treated us to

                                                          pizza/veggie’s/soda/water.  Bill & Bonnie Lado who arranged the evening and

                                                          were our Club hosts for the night.

 

  .  Mystery Cruise - On July 10th  Bob & Deb Zido hosted a day cruise to the

     Gilboa dam, Grand Gorge and went to the Blenheim bridge (the longest single

     wooden bridge in the state).  Six Vettes participated in the fun day.  The day

      ended with an ice cream stop. 

 

   .  Vettes at The Beach (July 25th) – We had eleven (11) Vettes travel to the

      Event.  The weather was great with the exception of a brief shower at mid day. 

      The “Vettes at The Beach” Event broke a new record with 504 Corvettes   

      registered.  It was great to be part of this accomplishment!  Several of us had

      breakfast upon arriving, dinner on the way home (and of course ice cream). 

      A fun day for all!
