March 2023 - PJ's Bar & Grill: Little River

We had a good turn out for the drive to PJ’s Bar and Grill in Little River. It’s always a gamble on the weather in March. It was sunny and dry, but the temperature of 37 and wind chill of 13 kept everyone in their cars with no chatting while waiting. Twelve Corvettes left from the Kwik Shop on 30th and a couple more cars joined on the way. No traditional group photo was taken in front of PJ’s. Everyone hurried inside out of the cold. The PJ’s staff had 2 table areas set up and ready for us. Drinks were quickly served and menu orders taken. Meals soon arrived at the tables and the food was very good. Some of the staff requested we return in warmer weather so they could check out the Corvettes. Thanks to all that attended.

"I wish I could say that I got a new car, but sadly I didn’t! It was fun to have the Central Kansas Corvette Club at PJ’s for lunch recently. My boys (husband and kids!) enjoyed checking out the cars."
