Is Black Dog Distillery related to Black Dog Speed Shop? And can a former ZR-1 owner (but still a ZR-1 supporter) attend? Sounds like fun.--Bob

Re: Illinois Get Together - June 18th noon-3:00 pm
I took a drive over to meet Keith and took some pix of the layout and gathered some more details to share:
Keith's place is a tuck-away spot, located at - 10038 Clow Creed Rd Plainfield, IL It is in a little strip-mall; a GPS or Google Maps (app) is the easy way to navigate to it. Keith said he will have the entire parking lot 'roped off' for our cars. A FOOD vendor will be brought in to serve sandwiches, drinks, etc. Those bringing a ZR-1 will receive (do I dare mention this) a free sampling of some of Black Dogs fine distilled spirits (incredibly, even dangerously smooth!!) Just as an added attraction, Keith is going to try to arrange some live music entertainment too. So, bring a "bag chair" and your ZR-1 and get to meet and greet fellow ZR-1'ers as well as other Corvette enthusiasts. Yes, if you don't have a Z, you can bring whatever Corvette you have! I'm always amazed at the array of talent our group has in our midst. (I'll bet WAZOO doesn't have their own distillery!!  )Some pix of Keith's fine establishment!     Looks like an excellent way to enjoy the Zs and learn some interesting things about distilleries, and enjoy some good fellowship with the gang! June 18th...1 to 3 PM. It's on my calendar! BRING A BAG CHAIR! MAP Last edited by Paul Workman; 05-30-2016 at 01:05 PM. |

I'll be there as long as there is no discrimination against Z06s and their owners when it comes time to sample the Black Bog products
