August 28 Brat Fry and Cruise
Fifteen members enjoyed the last brat fry of the season at Mohnen's food truck in Darboy. The group of 9 cars took to a leisurely cruise south of town for about an hour. Upon returning to town 7 members stopped at JD's restaurant for ice cream. A nice break in the week that was enjoyed by all, despite the gloomy weather. Thanks to all who took part in the event, and everyone's prompt replies to attend.
Host: Susan Meyer
August 21 Girls Fun Day!
Six cars and 7 ladies ventured from Neenah Kohls to Oshkosh.to
Two Blondes to create Corvette masterpiece shirts. The creativity
and partnership between these ladies was great. We helped each
other create their one of a kind shirt. Two Blondes are able to
take any picture and transfer it to a shirt. See Lynn’s shirt with
the pace car. Later we enjoyed a wonderful lunch at the
Roxy in Oshkosh.
Hosts: Susan Meyer and Sue Krenz
July 18 Breakfast Cruise
It was a perfect morning for a Corvette run.
Our club had twelve cars and 20 people on
this run. We met at Fox Valley Lutheran
High school and were lead by Greg and
Judy Tate on a beautiful drive through the
back roads of the valley. We arrived at
Dam Yankees around 9:45 with plenty of parking on a nice paved surface. A view of the Wolf was over your shoulder.
We had a nice breakfast in the dining room. Dam Yankees is one of our advertisers.
I had a nice chat with one of the lead servers and they do many large groups for breakfast on a regular basis.
A return trip is in our future.
Thank you hosts: Greg and Judy & Sue Krenz
July 14 Wolf River Lodge Car Show
Paul Neidner hosted a small group of cars to the venue, and eventually 20 members and 2 former members showed up at the Car Show, for camaraderie, great summer food, music and of course to show(or see) the cars. Congratulations to member Louie Ulman, who was 3rd runner up, and went home with a gift Certificate for his 1967 Red Convertible. The 50/50 raffle was won by Heather (not a member) who took home $540. Even with the hot weather, everyone enjoyed the day, looking forward to next year!
July 13 Cruise Around the Lake
Saturday morning was a day meant for cruising in our Corvettes. Great weather in the high 80's and we made it without any rain. Fifteen (15) cars left Waverly Beach and began cruising around the east side of Lake Winnebago. Thank you to my wing persons, Gary and Lyn Kaphingst in the middle of the pack and Bob and Konnie Gebhardt at the end, who kept everybody close together. In Fond du Lac we made a pit stop at Kwik Trip, then continued around the west side of Lake Winnebago. We stopped at the Mineshaft Restaurant in Oshkosh where we had a great meal and quick service considering the amount of people our waitress needed to serve. She did a fantastic job. We then continued through Oshkosh (driving through Menomineee Park) and Neenah (by the Lighthouse and into Riverside Park), then into Menasha where we ended the ride at Oneida St. No wrong turns, and the only items not on the itinerary was a train stopping us in Oshkosh, an open drawbridge in Oshkosh, and an open drawbridge in Menasha.
Thanks to everyone who participated. We had a great time.
Hosts: Mary and Bob Boswell
June 19 West Diner Cruise
We had sixteen cars leaving at 4:30pm from Cleary Rd. We traveled thru Fremont, traveling along the Wolf River and then along Lake Pogan. Our destination was to the Fin & Feather for dinner. Cruise travel time was about 90 minutes. We started the cruise in the rain, the rain did stop thru most of the cruise. Thank you to everyone who ventured out with us!
