And now for "The Rest Of The Story"

What Mr. Tripleblack51 hasn't shared is that in September of '06 he was sitting at a table of Corvette owners who were attending "Corvettes In Venice". Most of the people at the table had never met, but thought the party night preceding the show was a great ice breaker.

Someone thought it would be

to have an organization where you could walk into a restaurant in Montana and meet someone wearing a shirt with your logo.

About 30 minutes later, Tripleblack51 stood up, dramatically hung his head and said:

My Name Is Pedro and I Have A Problem!

In the blink of an eye, Corvettes Anonymous was formed!

We are NOT a club, but a loosely formed International Tongue In Cheek Support Association For Anyone With A Passion For Corvettes.

From that September evening, we have grown to > 430 members in 35 states, Canada, UK, France, Germany, Australia, and Puerto Rico....... and It Is All About The Joke!

We do not have meetings, officers, or dues. Instead, we enjoy one another's company on various cruises or other informal get togethers. Here in the Tampa Bay Area, we support two primary charities: Florida Gulf Coast Chapter ~ Alzheimer's Association ~ Respite Care Services, and the RCS Food Bank of Clearwater.

We do our level best to not take ourselves seriously, but to seriously have fun sharing a common passion.

Thank You Tripleblack51 for getting this snowball rolling!
