Welcome to the Queen City Corvette Club website.

 

Queen City Corvette Club is the largest and most active Corvette club in North Carolina with over 250 members.  Our members range in age from the 20’s all the way up to our senior member who is 95 years young.  A range of Corvettes is represented, from vintage C1 models to the most current model 2011 Corvette.

 

The primary goal of our club is ownership, driving, and sharing our Corvettes with others, while establishing close friendships with people who share a passion for Corvettes.  Our activities include car shows, overnight and day road trips, parades, poker runs, car care days, cruise ins, and high performance driving events.  Our 2010 overnight road trips were to various destinations: Vettes in the Valley, Savannah, Corvettes at Carlisle and many more day trips.  Plans are already under way for the 5^th National Corvette Caravan in 2014, with our own member, Paul Mariano, as National Chairman of the Caravan.  The caravan marks the 20^th anniversary of the opening of the museum, and draws thousands of Corvette owners from across the US and several foreign countries.

 

The club’s social activities include BBQ’s, ice cream socials, picnics, go kart racing and of course our famous Monday and Wednesday night dinner gatherings.  These dinners give us an opportunity to gather at various restaurants throughout the greater Charlotte area, and allow us to get to know fellow members, and especially new members, better.  It also gives us an excuse to shine our cars and show them off!  Our Wednesday group meets weekly and our Monday “Up Yonder” group meets on the first Monday of each month in the Lake Norman area.

 

Queen City Corvette Club is a social non-profit club and is very active in the charity arena.  We arrange various charity car shows at City Chevrolet, our primary sponsor, and raising funds that are donated to local and national charities.  This past year we supported through our charity fund, Matthews Free Medical Clinic, USO of Charlotte,, the National Corvette Museum, Pilgrim’s Inn, and Barium Springs Home for Children. We also support the 145^th National Guard Children and the Matthews Help Center Children at Christmas time.

 

Queen City Corvette Club provides an opportunity for members to exchange knowledge and information on how to maintain and enjoy their Corvettes.  We meet the second Saturday of each month at different locations in the greater Charlotte area.  Look on our calendar for location information.  Our meetings begin at 6:30 p.m. and are usually preceded by a social period starting at 5:30 p.m.

 

If you are interested in becoming a member, you must be over 21 years of age and own a Corvette.  There is more information regarding membership on this website.  Please come back and visit our website often, as it is always being updated.  There’s a calendar of events, pictures of recent club activities, classified ads, our monthly newsletter (which won first place nationally), and helpful “tech tips”.

 

Please feel free to contact our Membership Director, Chris Wood, any board member or me directly.  We would welcome the opportunity to have you participate in Queen City Corvette Club.

 

Let’s drive ‘em and enjoy them.  Remember to “Save the Wave”.
