Friday morning began with volunteers parking cars on Main Street, lunch at L'Abouteau in Cap Pele, a stop at Michel Leblanc's Garage, a stop at Action Truck Cap in Moncton, and Friday evening downtown viewing the parked cars and listening to the great music.

the cars cruising the streets.

Roger thanked all those who volunteered to help out at our show on Saturday.

Sunday there were approximately 60 corvettes parked on the hill.  Thanks goes out to Bob Surrette for organizing a lot of the volunteers for the Nationals.

A good time was had by those who made the trip to Matapedia.  A great BBQ was sponsored by Lounsbury's of Dalhousie.  Thanks to Bob Arbeau for all he did to make the trip a success.

12 cars made the trip to the Maritime Meet in Truro.  They always provide participants with a free meal at the end of the day. 

August 3 saw us make a day of it at Mike and Jeannie Lipton's cottage with great food, a boat ride and great swimming.  Thanks Mike and Jeannie.
