Lake Tahoe Corvette Club

The Lake Tahoe Corvette Club is a nonprofit organization established in 1989 by a group of Corvette enthusiasts from the Lake Tahoe and greater Carson Valley area. The club is dedicated to promoting and celebrating the Chevrolet Corvette, an iconic American sports car.

Purpose and Activities

As a social club, the Lake Tahoe Corvette Club organizes various events throughout the year. These include monthly meet-and-dine gatherings, typically held on the first Tuesday of each month, often at local restaurants. The club also hosts "Drive and Dines," which are one-day social events where members caravan through scenic routes to interesting destinations. These may include car shows, tours, and visits to historic sites and unique restaurants. Additionally, the club participates in local events such as potlucks and game nights, especially during the winter months.

Past Events and Contributions

Historically, the club hosted a premier car show called "Corvettes at Lake Tahoe," with proceeds donated to local charities in the Lake Tahoe and Carson Valley areas. However, this event was discontinued due to venue loss. The club continues to seek a new location to revive this event.
