-
The annual fundraiser will be held in Rantoul October 3-4, 2015.
- Annual NCCC dues will begin processing October 1, 2015. Please update all information, including address changes, email addresses and omit the last four digits of your zip code.
- Again this year we will donate 4 sanctions to Windy City Corvette Club to be used for the Memorial Day Race on May 28-30, 2016 at Rantoul, IL. and 4 sanctions to be used during Great Rivers Corvette Club Event, June 4-5, 2016 in West Quincy, MO. We will need volunteer workers for both events. With 2 remaining sanctions, we may be asked to donate those for the Memorial Day Motorsports Park Weekend to be held May 28-30, 2016 at the new Motorsports Park in Bowling Green, KY. I have a preliminary flyer for that event. Upon approval by Mid-Illinois Corvette Club, I would like to have those sanctions available for use at the Motorsports event.
