This Saturday, October 3rd, 2009, there will be a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Corvair. In cooperation with McCurley Chevrolet in Pasco, WA, we will be having a small gathering of Corvairs on the front row of their lot. 8:00am is the scheduled opening time, we don’t know how long we will be there, but probably at least through the early afternoon. Come by and share memories and looks at one of the most unique cars ever produced in the US.
Edit: see the map below for the location and driving directions.
Note that at this time US-395 Northbound over the Blue Bridge between Kennewick and Pasco is closed due to construction. You will need to use an alternate route such as taking Gum St. over the Cable Bridge or taking SR-240 west to I-182 East.

Lineup entrance will be at 8th and Dayton in Kennewick. Come in by way of 10th avenue, as most of the other streets in the area will be blocked off. Judging of entries will be at 8:15am, so everyone needs to be in place and ready by 8:00am for judging. The parade begins at 10:00am. Hope to see you there and have fun!
EDIT: Below is a map from 10th and US-395 (Point A) to 8th and Dayton (Point B):

What a great parade! 12 Corvairs representing our club, and for the first time, we took home the 1st place award among car clubs. This is a fantastic accomplishment, the award will be scanned and posted soon.

The parade in downtown Pasco is set for the morning of July 4th. However, there has been a policy change this year. We need to provide individual proof of insurance to participate. So, if you wish to participate in the parade, get a copy of your vehicle’s insurance card to Brian ASAP so that he can send in the information to the parade organizers.
