Bowling Green (who hasn't been there)
Hey Z owners
Who hasn't been to Bowling Green and who wants more information? Many of us haven't been there and might want more info on what goes on there.... Anyone interested please post here with an email address and we will put together "why you should go to Bowling Green for the Gathering in May". We will have the experts put info together and hopefully post here also to get more Z owners to come. Many of us have gone to BG, but many haven't. Looking forward to my first year cheers David 94 #150 ps This year the Gathering won't be on Mothers Day!!! |

Re: Bowling Green (who hasn't been there)
I`ve never been, don`t live that far away and am all ears on this. The only other ZR 1 that i`ve ever seen is at the museum about 10 years ago. I`d like to see other people`s cars, talk to the owners and stand to the side listening to conversations about our cars. I would call this putting faces with names, making new friends and learning about this "getting older" Z that i have. Which day of the gathering and where might that be possible? Do i have to put my name in a hat somewhere to just show up?

Re: Bowling Green (who hasn't been there)
Never been, I am ready to go you know that David. Maybe we can get the rest of us in Maryland to get off there buts and make the time to go this year. We would have a good amount of cars from just this area. Good post David keep up the good work my friend. Kirk.

Re: Bowling Green (who hasn't been there)
Being that it is not on Mother's day w/e is good for me too!
I stopped by for a couple hours last year, took in Marc Haibeck's presentation on the 440 project and the museum (WOW!!), and off to another commitment (hosting a rifle match in Somerset KY - Yeah...guess you could say we - wife Ami and I - were "packin heat" on that trip! ). P. |

Re: Bowling Green (who hasn't been there)
This is agood idea for a thread, David.
I have been to the ZR-1 Gathering once. I had a great time. I will be glad to share my ideas. Bottom line: NOT ON MOTHERS DAY THIS YEAR!!!! The ZR-1 Gathering is THE annual event for ZR-1 owners. I highly recommend attending. There are a lot of things going on there and lots of people to meet. I promise we will help anyone that has questions about how to get there, where to go and what to do. Please do not be afraid to ask. Jim

Re: Bowling Green (who hasn't been there)
I'm all ears....
Thanks for doing this Dave! I would love to know a date as I must "bid" for the time off. The earlier I put my "bids" in, the better chance I have to get what I requested. Sorry, not trying to be a ball breaker.....union rules & the CBA lay out the steps I need to do to get vacation time. Thanks Dave! Tom Oh yea, forgot.....I've never been to the gathering at BG!

Re: Bowling Green (who hasn't been there)
The dates for The ZR-1 Gathering at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, KY are May 14-16, 2009
Here is a link to the NCM site where you will be able to register for the events that are run by the NCM. It appears that the on-line registration is not available yet. http://www.corvettemuseum.com/regist...ing/info.shtml Jim
