Default BLOOMINGTON GOLDŽ Corvette Show

Below is the official press release for The 37th Annual BLOOMINGTON GOLDŽ Corvette Show scheduled for June 25-28, 2009.

I recently had the pleasure of meeting and having several conversations with David Burroughs (CEO and originator of the Bloomington Gold certification system). He is excited to get more attendance from LS1tech at this years show. They will offer designated parking for our forum members.

This show boasts not only the rarest and fastest but also the largest gathering of C5 & C6 Corvettes for sale in the world. While many of you might already know, I learned that you can get a C5, C6 and even a brand new Vette certified at this event.

David has asked for suggestions on any specific seminars that would be of interest to our members. So here is your chance to have a direct link to the folks that make the decisions. You can post your suggestions in new thread in this forum. David and his staff will be on the board to check out what folks are asking for.

There is also a driving tour that you will find info about on their site.

Here is the official press release -

THE 37th ANNUAL BLOOMINGTON GOLDŽ CORVETTE SHOW SCHEDULED
FOR JUNE 25-28, 2009

NORMAL, Ill. – It’s time for automotive enthusiasts to mark their summer calendars as anticipation builds for Bloomington GoldŽ, America’s Original Corvette Show. Bloomington Gold Corvettes USA's 37th show will be held June 25-28, 2009, at Pheasant Run Resort in St. Charles, Ill.
“Bloomington Gold is the longest running continuous Corvette show and, since 1973, has set the standard by which other Corvette events are measured,” said David Burroughs, CEO, Bloomington Gold. “We really have something for everyone. In addition to our Gold CertificationŽ, the flagship and revolutionary judging event from which the show gained its name, attendees can enjoy educational and restoration seminars, auctions, museum-quality displays of America’s rarest and fastest Corvettes, road tours, music and video entertainment, plus our surprise special events that are always an audience favorite.”
The magnificent Pheasant Run Resort plays host to the Bloomington Gold Corvette show, with its 18-hole championship golf course featuring tree-lined fairways, pristine lakes and carefully manicured greens, creating “a spectacular display venue for America's sports car,” Burroughs said.
“When you combine the 60 Corvettes in The Special CollectionŽ with the 250 Certification and SURVIVORŽ Collector cars as well as 350 high end auction cars, plus thousands of additional Corvettes on the golf course, Bloomington Gold offers attendees access to the highest concentration of America’s coolest – not to mention most expensive – Corvettes found in one place,” said Burroughs.
Attendees and judging participants can register online or by mail for Bloomington Gold beginning Feb. 15, 2009. For more details about the show, judging and registration procedures, visit www.bloomingtongold.com, call 309.888.4477 or email info@bloomingtongold.com.
Bloomington GoldŽ, America’s Original Corvette Show since 1973, is known world-wide for leadership in Corvette preservation and authenticity. Its revolutionary judging systems – Gold CertificationŽ, SURVIVORŽ and BENCHMARKŽ – set the standard by which collectors, auctions, magazines and parts manufacturers compare all other Corvettes. However, it has also become known for the incredible beauty of thousands of Corvettes parked on the impeccable greens of Pheasant Run Golf Course. Rare parts, world class judging, education and hundreds of Corvettes for sale or auction make this America’s most unique and diverse automotive event. Visit www.bloomingtongold.com or call 309.888.4477 for more information.
