SOUTHERN OREGON'S
CORVETTE CLUB, SINCE 1974
_______________________________________
In Support Of The Troops

On Saturday August 14th Forty Four cars, Including four Corvettes from SOCA, gathered at the Oak Lane Retirement Home in Grants Pass for the 3rd Annual Car Show in Support of the Soldiers and Families of our own Delta Company of the Oregon National Guard.

Above is my 2006 C6, Dora & Waynes 1996 C4, Jess & Roi's 1960 C1 and Gene & Candy's 1984 C4 with it's brand new paint job.

Jess is flanked by two very pretty young ladies who gave him the trophy for best "Classic Muscle Car"
Best of all, the car show helped raise over $1,200 for ADOS (Assisting Deployed Oregon Soldiers) in their important mission.
And in addition, we all had a really good time entertaining the wonderful residents of the Oak Lane Retirement Home.

Aaron Lambert Memorial
Car Show

Saturday August 21st was the Fifth Annual Aaron Lambert Memorial Scholarship Car Show.
This show is presented to honor the memory of Aaron Lambert, who lost his life in an industrial accident at the age of 33.
The funds raised at this event provide scholarships for students pursuing an education in the field of Diesel Mechanics and Auto Technology. Aaron was a very skilled technician in this field before his untimely death.
SOCA has supported this great show for the past five years.

Here Dave is receiving his trophy for Best Corvette.
He also received a Sponsors Choice Plaque. Congratulations Dave.
In addition to Dave and Sharon, Gene & Candy had their '84 Coupe, Ron White (who puts on the show), had his Black '66 roadster, Wayne had his new 1931 Ford replica, Jim Davis had his restored El Camino, and I had my C6.
This is a really nice show, for a great cause, that we are happy to support each year.
