Saturday August 16th  –  Regular monthly CLCG. Location CHANGED again!  This month we’ll meet at Ryan’s Steakhouse.  If you can, join us for Ryan’s breakfast buffet at 9 AM, before the 10 AM meeting …it’ll give us lots more time for Corvette Camaraderie.  IMPORTANT: the entrance in front of this Ryan’s is NOT Corvette-friendly!   We suggest that instead you take Woodcrest Blvd, a few yards west, up to Ryan’s “upper” parking lot which is a LOT more “Corvette Friendly”!

Saturday August 16th   AFTER our meeting, we’ll have our 2008 BBQ, Boating, Swimming, and Corvette Camaraderie Outing at the Lake Sinclair home of Al & Helen Hemstreet.  Bring your swimsuits and folding chairs!  The club will provide the meat dish; if you haven’t already, please RSVP with Helen and Al at pacecar78@bellsouth.net to coordinate what you’ll bring to the party: beverages, salads, veggies, deserts, etc.  We’ll meet at Galleria Mall at 1:15 and depart at 1:30 for the lake.  Maps to Al’s place will be sent by e-message in advance.
