It was the Spring of 2001 when five people got together & came up with an idea to form a Corvette club in Columbia, South Carolina.  There wasn't a club that encompassed the love of Corvette's, no matter what your interest was.  At a dinner in Lexington, the founding members met & talked about what this club should be about, why it needed to be formed & what members could expect from it.  From these humble beginnings, the following club goals were established:

• Develop friendship & pride among Corvette owners & drivers.

• Encourage skillful, safe & sportsmanlike driving habits on the highways.

• Develop relations between the community & Corvette club enthusiasts.

• Actively promote, sponsor, organize & supervise local Corvette car shows, competitions, cruises & other activities.

• Promote & actively support local charities as chosen by the club members.

A meeting place was selected, hope & excitement filled the members as the advertisement & recruitment of members began!  They would travel from car show to car show seeking new members & showing off their Vettes.  Each one had an eye for customizing the cars & they were constantly looking for creative ways to personalize their Corvettes.

Leisurely impromptu dinners began where members had fun, laughed, talked about past & upcoming events & of course talked about their Vettes.  They had summer picnics, progressive dinners, poker runs, regular Sunday ice cream socials & the ever popular mod days & dyno days.  Capitol City Corvette Club was conceived, brought to life & continues to grow today.  This club was founded primarily on developing friendship & pride among Corvette owners & drivers & having fun, lots of fun.  This sentiment is still alive today & will be the theme of the club for years to come.
