Benefits of Belonging to Lafayette Corvette Club
Lafayette Corvette Club is a member of the National Council of Corvette Clubs which was founded as an all volunteer, non-profit organization in 1959 by a small group of Corvette owners and enthusiasts. The purpose of NCCC was ( and still is ) to promote interest in Corvette ownership and operation, to publish information on the use and operation of the Corvette and to establish an organized effort to encourage others to participate in the enjoyment connected with the use of the Corvette. All LCC members belong to both organizations. Some of the many benefits of belonging to LCC/NCCC are listed below.
Competition Programs
In order to encourage interactivity between individual clubs, NCCC has organized a comprehensive National Competition Program. We have a set of Rules that are Nationally recognized and followed. A National Points Standing compilation is maintained by the Vice President of Competition and a Regional Points Standing that each Regional Competition Director is responsible to maintain. Trophies are awarded to Indiana’s top competitors at the Indiana Region Awards Banquet held each spring. The top national competitors receive awards at NCCC’s annual convention.
Conventions
NCCC hosts an annual Convention in different parts of the country each summer. NCCC members come together from across the nation for a week of getting to know each other. Every day is filled with Corvette related activities such as drag racing, high and/or low speed events, rallyes and car shows. Day trips are often available for individuals that aren’t involved in competition events at Convention. At the end of the day everyone gets together for a fun filled evening of entertainment, dancing, or just relaxing and visiting with friends.
Visit the NCCC convention page for information on past, present and future NCCC conventions.
Discounts
A number of companies have formed a friendship with NCCC and offer discounts to its members. You can find out more information on the special discounts for members page on the NCCC Website.
