Rick...Now wouldn't it have been much easier to pay the money and register, then you could have just followed us in and parked and enjoyed the day ?

We brought Salsa and Chips, Ken and Carrie won, I got Andy Pilgrims autograph.....,
need I say more...?

Talking After the UCP

GANG:

Want to thank all of you that came to the "Ultimate Corvette Party" yesterday and hope you all had a good time. We admit parking has always been a problem at the show for the public. We have tried and tried everything and nothing seems to work. The Police yesterday gave wrong directions to people. Our signage was some what confusing, but for those of you that have been to the show for a few years, know we are improving every year.

We at TBV meet next month and discuss our concerns, and then work on them for the following year. I was there a 4:30am and til 6:00pm and talked to as many people as I could for input and I know I had alot of good response came that we have improved. I promise TBV will work on the public parking for next year as an issue. The photo guy also slowed down things a tat in the morning, but all of you were very patient and we really appreciated that.

The vendors loved and praised our new location for them. Food tent "went faster than last year and Show parking went generaly smooth. Again, thank you for coming and if you had any concerns, PM me and I will add to our list for next year. (Give us your concerns and possible solutions).

For the record, we estimated 410 car in the show, 25 more with vendor Corvettes and Police guessed at 500 spectators.

WE WILL BE BIGGER AND BETTER NEXT YEAR"

Thank You:

Jim, I'll give you a call next week and maybe we can sit down and discuss some parking plans. I've got some ideas from what Isaw yesterday, but can't really address them until I know what you have (property wise) to work with?

Overall it was a great time

I'm not a big race fan, but I got to meet Mr. Pilgrim AFTER the show closed. He actually took the time (on his way out the door no less!) to sign not only 2 race car posters for me, but also asked if I wanted my car picture signed?

He's a VERY personable guy

Met great folks, saw some sweet rides and next year, maybe I'll even get to spend some real time at the vendors tents!

Damn! I missed the salsa!

The picture guy slowed things a bit but it was worth it IMO!

You guys did an overall great job.



Gordon
