Corvette Club of Battle Creek

19 members of the Corvette Club of Battle Creek attended the 2015 Corvette Crossroads Car Show this weekend. The trip started out with breakfast in St Johns at The Wheel Inn. Our first set of pictures were taken at the rest area at Clare. We then stopped at the Cross in the Woods in Indian River and it was so beautiful. On to the tunnel of trees between Harbor Springs and Cross Village, and lunch at the Legs Inn. Friday we broke up in several directions and visits were made to the Soo Locks, ziplining at The Mystery Spot and wandering around at Whitefish Point. The car show was Saturday and it was a fantastic show with tons of cars. At 7:00 all the Corvettes were allowed to parade across the Mackinaw Bridge and what a sight to see. We ran into the Gumball Rally cars on our way across the bridge and they are always having a great time and we need to try this rally some time. Sunday morning we had breakfast at Audie’s (yummy for sure), followed by pictures of all of our cars in front of the Mackinaw Bridge. What a beautiful site. It was a wonderful trip with great friends and we can’t wait for our next adventure.

The Corvette Club of Battle Creek will be attending the 4th of July Parade in Colon, Michigan again this year.  This is one of the biggest parades in the area.  We again will be escorting the court as well as last year’s winners and the grand marshal for the parade.  Hope to see you all there!!
