Corvette Expressions 3rd Edition—Volume 137 February, 2018

Greetings, and welcome to the February, 2018 is-sue of Corvette Expressions. January proved to be a busy month as there were three fun activities: On Friday, January 19, members attended a come-dy show and dinner at the Stress Factory in New Brunswick. This is always a much anticipated evening, and much thanks to Bev and George T. for hosting. Club members were treated to some fabulous dim sum at the Westlake Restaurant in Matawan on Sunday, January 21. Thank-you to Bill and Carol Z. for organizing this always delicious breakfast. Finally, the annual Corvette Express holiday party was held once again at Yesterday’s restaurant in Hazlet on January 27. The food was tasty, the mu-sic was great, and it turned out to be a fun evening for all. As always, if anyone would like to offer input on the party, or suggestions for other venues, please don’t hesitate to share your thoughts. Final-ly, if anyone would like a CD of the slide show that played through-out the evening at the party, just see me at the meeting or send an email. Happy Valentine’s Day! Lisa Force Newsletter Editor

Welcome to February and Happy Valentine's Day. I'd like to thank Larry and Lisa Force, and all those involved, for making this year's holiday par-ty go so well. While it's still cold outside, now is the time to en-sure your Corvette is ready for the upcoming sea-son. Our activities committee has been hard at work planning a full calendar of events for this year. Please review this newsletter and check our website, for all there is to do. Also, to continue our growth trend, as we become more involved on the car show/cruising circuit, invite a fellow Corvette enthusiast to one of our events. As membership grows, we're able to coor-dinate multiple events so there's something going on for everyone. Dues are still being collected. If you need to pay your dues, please see or contact Bill Zide. Thank you. See you at the next meeting on February 7.

Yours in Corvettes, Rob Lombardi
