Vets ‘n Vettes 

Sponsored by ExxonMobil

Honoring Those Who Fought for Our Freedom

  Mobil1

 November 12th – November 14th, 2020

In 2008 we began a tradition of honoring our veterans with a new event, Vets ‘n Vettes. Thursday kicks off with a full day at the NCM Motorsports Park. Due to Covid restrictions participants will still be able to do a full day of touring at the NCM Motorsports Park but we will not be bringing in local veterans. Complimentary lunch served to all courtesy of Don Franklin Chevrolet! We will celebrate Friday and Saturday with road tours, a special Veteran’s Wave Parade, and lunch at the local VFW, the event offers veterans, servicemen and women and those who want to support them, a comfortable place to meet and share stories and experiences.

General registration for Vets ‘n Vettes is only $20

Online registration closes at 8:00am central time on Friday, October 30. There are no refunds for activities after online registration closes. All activities are open to Event Registrants only. On-line registrants will receive a hard card credential, lanyard, and event pin.

The brand new Sleep Inn Main Stay in Bowling Green will be hosting our group this year for any guests that need to lock in lodging for our Vets ‘n Vettes event. The nightly rate will be $50 and includes a full kitchenette with a full-size refrigeration, stove top, and dishwasher. Call to reserve a room at 270-904-9400.
