We made a pit stop at Dudley's Bakery. We ended at lunch in Julian. Keith, a proud owner of a Midnight blue Sky joined us for his very 1st drive - welcome! Great way to start the Holiday season. We wish you all Happy Holidays and we will see you in 2016!

Had a great dinner. We ate, drank and laughed. A great raffle took place where we had an opportunity to win great prizes such as, Kappa luggage, Wind restrictors, t-shirts, high flow cat and many other fun stuff.

Kappas & Corvettes - January 2015
On Sunday, January 25, we "kicked-off" the new year with the most spirited drive we do! It is tradition that we get together with the Corvette Owners Club of San Diego every January. We had 10 Kappas (5 Sky & 5 Sol) and 14 Corvettes. We couldn't have asked for better weather! It was cool and gloomy, but very comfortable. We met at Harrah's Casino in Valley Center.

We made a "pit stop" and Dudley's bakery. Then, headed to "El Rey Mexican Restaurant" for a lovely lunch buffet. We always enjoy this wonderful Corvette group and we look forward to next year!
