Corvette
Museum Offers “Free Admission” to Recognize
U.S. Military, Firemen and Police Officers
During
November’s “Military Appreciation Month”
Bowling Green,
KY –
November is “Military Appreciation Month” at the National
Corvette Museum and all military personnel, firemen, police officers
and their immediate families will receive “Free Admission”
during the entire month of November. All branches including active,
retired and reserve members will be honored with free admission
when presenting a military or service ID.
The Museum features
over 70 rare and classic Corvettes from the past, present and future
of Corvette along with many new displays including the new “Pit
Crew Challenge” interactive exhibit. Guests can enjoy the
hands-on fun of the exhibit by racing against the clock to fuel
up, change tires and keep the Corvette race car in the top of the
racing heap. In addition, guests can see the 2007 Indianapolis Pace
Car and the “Dirty Dempster” Corvette that made a torturous
journey across Northwest Canada through mountain ranges and the
Artic Circle while crossing the Continental Divide three times.
Guests visiting may also have the opportunity to sit behind the
wheel of a Corvette and take a chance to win a new Corvette for
only $10 per ticket. We will draw the winning ticket on April 26
and participants need not be present to win. Tickets can also be
purchased online at: www.corvettemuseum.com or by calling (800)
53-VETTE.
In conjunction with Veterans
Day on November 11th, we are offering free admission to honor the
many men and women who fight and protect our country and our freedom.
“We are truly a blessed nation and our military provide the
safety we have to enjoy our American privileges,” states NCM
Executive Director, Wendell Strode. “Corvette is an American
icon and we invite these special individuals and their family members
to experience a tour of the Museum dedicated to America’s
favorite sports car.”
