The British Columbia Corvette Club (BCCC), the oldest and largest Corvette Club within BC, is proud to announce their 50th Anniversary Celebration “Thunder From Sea to Sky” being held August 21 to 23, 2015 in North-America’s number one resort community, Whistler, BC.

This year’s 50th Anniversary Celebration will include an organized Corvette Caravan on Friday, Aug. 21 from the Lower Mainland to Whistler along the scenic Sea-to-Sky highway and a Friday night Welcome Social. On Saturday, Aug. 22nd we have a Show-n-Shine within the center of the picturesque Whistler Upper Village (limited to the first 85 registered cars – abundant parking close by for all other Corvettes) & "The 50th" Banquet with a presentation by Special Guest Speaker, Mr. Wendell Strode (Executive Director, National Corvette Museum, Bowling Green, KY.). Activities for Sunday, August 23rd will include a Poker Run to Lillooet, BC with a wine tasting event at the Fort Berens Winery.

For those who wish to extend their visit, an optional “Long Way Home” cruise is planned for Monday, August 24th which will take another Corvette Caravan from Whistler back to Vancouver via Lillooet & down the scenic Fraser Canyon. We will drive through Lytton, Boston Bar and Spuzzum and will visit Hells Gate Canyon before passing through Hope & Chilliwack on our way to Vancouver. Naturally there will be planned stops and activities along the way!
