CVCC Fall Cruise  to Renovo.  This will be the 60th anniversary of the Flaming Foliage Festival and Parade in Renovo, PA.  The parade will feature the young ladies who are competing for the title of "Miss Flaming Foliage".  And this year CVCC Corvettes will carry the aspiring contestants in the parade.  To do this, 35 Corvettes are needed.  (On Sept 1st there was a need for 10 more cars.)  Each Corvette must have an open top; i.e., convertible or removable top.  Please contact J. Paul by September 4th if you can volunteer.  Meet at the Ranch House restaurant (north of the 322/15 interchange) for an 8:00 AM departure and caravan to Renovo.  Additional details will be provided after you sign up.  (50)
