We will have a meet and greet at about 6:30

would be greatly appreciated, let us know.
Be gassed up and ready to go by 9:00 AM,
short meeting at 9:10 and leaving promptly at 9:30
AM.
Everyone is invited; you just have to
have a Corvette. You do not
have to be a member of any club or organization to participate.
This is geared towards the Corvette Driving Enthusiast.
Description: Drive from Zanesville going East, through scenic winding back roads at times
following a few rivers and lakes. Route will go around Seneca Lake & Dam,
Wayne National Forest and along the Ohio River. You will enjoy
some of the curves in this section.
The cruise will go into New Martinsville, WV for lunch at the Court
Restaurant.
The Court Restaurant has a home made lunch buffet (with home made deserts) for
appx. $10.95. We will have a private area set aside for our group. We will be at
the restaurant at approximately 12:30 PM.
After lunch we will go south on Ohio 7 and have a stop along the Ohio River for
pictures. We will re-group when leaving the stop letting anyone wanting to
go a little slower in the next group of curves to be in the rear portion.
Then we will be proceeding west into the National Forest on route 260 and then
South on 26. We will be breaking the group up a bit on Route 26 going South. This will allow you
to enjoy the curves in this section at your own pace There
will be lots of great curves and scenery to enjoy in this section ending up just north of Marietta
then over to Route 60. There
will be a gas stop in Marietta, (optional ending at this point).
We will then
take route 60 up along the Muskingum River to Route 83 and up into the hills.
Planned stop in this portion will be an overlook on top of one of hills, good
photo opportunity. If you are more into a leisurely drive for the last 40
Miles up to I-70 you can continue straight on Route 60 instead of going up Route
83, just let us know at the
gas stop if you will be going straight.
There is very little traffic on these roads on
Saturday, making this a very enjoyable drive.
This will be
a 216 mile (total) drive
ending at the Host Motel. The Optional Ending is 153 Miles ending just
north of Marietta Ohio, mid afternoon (approximately 3:15 PM). If going
to I-77 from the BP stop, then continue south on 60 then turn left
on 821 to I-77. You can also just continue South into Marietta.
There will be plenty of time for socializing.
This is a good opportunity to take a nice cruise in your corvette on some of the
best roads you can find anywhere.
Best of all, this cruise is free and does not cost anything except food and
gas. Donations accepted for Friday night Pizza and Snacks.
