All Members:

Several of us are meeting on Saturday morning to drive up to Lyons to participate in the Lyons Veterans Parade.

We will meet in Hutch at Atwoods/Kwik Shop at 30th and Lorraine at 9 a.m., to depart at 9:15.

This isn't a "formal" CKCA event, just a chance to get together to honor our Veterans and run some high-test through our Corvettes on what may likely be one of the last nice days of the season.

CKCA member Curtis Tobias says it's ok to toss candy to the kids during the parade. :)

Hope to see you on Saturday.

Gerald & Denise Haughton

Good times with our CKCA homies and friends at the Lyons Veterans Parade. We had 12 Corvettes on the drive up from Hutch, and met up with seven more Corvettes waiting for us in Lyons. A teeny little bit windy/chilly at times, but a gorgeous fall day nonetheless. Many thanks to CKCA member and Lyons resident Curtis Tobias for the invite, and to everyone who participated!
