November 2, 2016 ~ We have experienced an issue with the bidding for the Ron Fellows Hot Laps at Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch shown below which caused the bidding to be shut down before the time listed at 6:00 PM CDT on October 31, 2016.

August 3, 2016 ~ The Summer 2016 Issue of Blue Bars has been mailed to all NCCC Primary Members. A PDF Version has been linked on the Blue Bars page and is now also included in the History of Blue Bars .


June 29, 2016 ~ Our NCCC Web Site has always lacked an easy way to Return to the Home Page after visiting the informational pages linked in the Menu Area on the Home Page. To ease this, I have created a quick way to Return to the Home Page while browsing.
At the Top of most of the linked pages there is a Banner like this one
or maybe just the NCCC Logo like this.

I have now made it possible to click on the NCCC Logo (when it appears) in the Banner or by itself at the top of each page to Return to the Home Page of our NCCC Web Site. Try it on the Logo in the Meetings Banner or the Logo included here or try it on the Logo in the Announcements Banner at the top of this page.
I have created this feature on as many pages as I have had time for but will continue with additional pages as I come across them. Please let me know if you find any that I have missed.

July 27, 2015 ~ It was announced at the April 2015 Governor's meeting that Eckler's is back on board as a Platinum Level sponsor for NCCC. Specific information about the sponsorship will also be listed in the Summer 2015 issue of BLUE BARS but due to timing, some of the information is being included here. Eckler's has offered to participate with NCCC in some new programs:

NCCC/ECKLER'S CALENDAR- For 2016, Eckler's will be producing an 11" x 8.5" calendar for each household that will be mailed to you. Photos in the calendar will come from BLUE BARS over the past few years. They will also list dates of events within your club or region and this information must be emailed to me by August 15, 2015 at sponsorship@corvettesnccc.com. I realize that many regions do not have their competition calendar set by this time. However, some clubs may be celebrating special anniversaries in 2016, your region may have determined the date for a regional banquet, or your club may host a weekend event every year at the same time. It does not have to be a competition sanctioned event. All club events will be considered so please email this information to me by August 15, 2015.

ECKLER'S DISCOUNT- Eckler's will be offering a discount of 12% on their products purchased online (does not include shipping or certain specialty products) during the week of October 4-11, 2015 and your region will be eligible for a 5% rebate for items purchased by members in your region. The rebates will be offered in gift certificates that can be used for regional awards or as your regional officers determine. More details in the Summer 2015 issue of BLUE BARS.

Thanks for your participation!

Our NCCC President is an active Board Member of NCM and is required to attend their Board meetings as well as attend our NCCC Meetings. It is not only an integral part of our very important ties with the NCM, but also the importance of maintaining solid mutual relationship between NCM & NCCC.

Therefore, Dave Heinemann, NCCC President, and Jack Wilson, NCCC Business Manager, have re-negotiated with the Sheraton Hotel for our April meeting dates to be moved to the first weekend in May for 2016, 2017 & 2018. Please make the necessary changes and plans on your respective calendars.

Announcements for Members in 2014

December 8, 2014 ~ NCCC History Memorabilia has been donated by many current and past NCCC Members since 2008 when preparation for NCCC's 50th Anniversary was kicked off.
Because of NCCC Member generosity, the Archive space that NCCC previously contracted for in St. Louis now includes a complete set of Blue Bars from the first issue through the Fall 2012 Issue. Other History items are also stored there like the BF Goodrich Challenge Trophy and various Banners and other Awards. In an attempt to organize and catalog the items that have been collected and not yet stored in St. Louis, a number of NCCC members have met and started sorting EVERYTHING......BIG JOB!
The main purpose of this announcement is to let all NCCC Members know that as a part of the sorting, roughly 1200 copies of Blue Bars have been organized and are available to any NCCC Member that would like to claim one or many of the past issues. The list of the issues that are available can be found on the List of Blue Bars Issues 1962 ~ 2014 linked under Blue Bars on the History of NCCC page. Next to each issue on the List the number of copies available of that issue is noted. Those interested in acquiring any should contact the NCCC Webmaster to make arrangements. Desired issues will not be mailed but may be picked up by the Member, their Governor or one of their Regional Officers at Governors Meetings or at the 2015 NCCC Convention in Lake Harmony, PA. Deadline for claiming the issue(s) will be November 1, 2015 with final delivery scheduled for the November Governors Meeting.

On the other side, a donation of a copy of the Convention 2002 issue would be greatly appreciated. Donation of any other issues is no longer needed. Other NCCC and Convention Memorabilia are still being accepted.

ALSO: Please check out the Past Members Find List and the NCCC History Want & Need List on the History of NCCC page.
