SOLD OUT: Ron Fellows Driving Experience
2025-06-23 | Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, 3233 Concession Rd 10, Bowmanville, Ontario, L1C 3K6, Canada
The Ron Fellows driving experience is now open to non NCC members. If you have any family or friends that would like to attend this event please have them contact Kipp Battiston at battistonkipp@hotmail.com.

We will once again be doing the Ron Fellows Driving Experience for 2025. We have secured Monday, June 23, 2025.
For those that have attended before, you know what a great time this is. For those that haven’t been or heard of this event, here is a quick breakdown.
This is a 1-day event held at the Canadian Tire Motorsport Park in Bowmanville. You will have the opportunity to drive the Corvette C8, Camaro ZL1 and Cadillac Blackwing CT5V and CT4V. When the driving portion is done, if you feel up to it you can do a hot-lap ride with the pro drivers. The day is then ended with a very nice catered dinner and open bar. If you are going as a spouse only and not a driver, obviously you don’t get to drive the cars, but you still spend the day trackside, can still do the hot lap with the pro driver, and of course get the dinner.
We were once again able to secure the GM discount through Brian Cullen Motors, so we are getting a deal. Unlike everything else that has gone up, we have the same rate as 2024. The cost this year is $1332.96 (including the tax) for a driver and $226 (again including the tax) for a spouse/friend to attend.
As in previous years, we have 18 spots available. This will be a first come, first served basis.
Please use this RSVP link on the Niagara Corvette Club website to enter your name and email address, and whether you are attending by yourself (1 Guest) or with a Spouse/Partner (2 Guests).
Like last year the track is requiring that we put down a 50% deposit to hold our date (just for driver’s fees, not the guests). I will either be collecting half from you ($666.48) when you sign up and the other half closer to the date, or you can pay the full amount now if you prefer to just do it in one step.
Once your registration is confirmed, you will be contacted and asked to send an eTransfer payment to battistonkipp@hotmail.com.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Regards,
Kipp Battiston

2025-06-21 14:00 - 17:00 | Niagara College – Niagara-On-The-Lake Campus, 135 Taylor Rd, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, L0S 1J0, Canada
Sat June 21st from 2 to 5 pm at the Niagara College – Niagara-On-The-Lake Campus
John Sawicki was a long time member of the Niagara Corvette Club. John passed away peacefully at home on October 23, 2024 surrounded by his loving family. He was a cherished partner to wife Kristal Doyle for almost 22 years.
There will be a Celebration of Life in his honour at the Armoury Pub at the Niagara-On-The-Lake Campus of the Niagara College. Please see the attached maps for buildings and parking.
As that morning is also the day of our Club Rally and BBQ Lunch, we will be organizing a Corvette Parade from Club Capri down the Welland Canal and across Glendale Ave to the Niagara Campus before 2 pm that day. We encourage the members participating in the Club Rally to join in the Parade.
We also encourage other members to join in the Parade along the Glendale route (a good waiting spot is across from General Motors in the empty lot), or meet up with our Club Members at the Armoury Pub.

NCC Car Rally and Lunch
2025-06-21 09:30 - 14:00 | Club Capri, 36 Cleveland Street, Thorold, Ontario, Canada
The NCC 2025 Car Rally will be held on Saturday June 21st, beginning at Club Capri located on 36 Cleveland Street in Thorold. Coffee will be available at 9:30 am, as well as access to club facilities. We will start the rally at approximately 10:30 am. The rally will start and end at Club Capri. Cars will be instructed to leave every 4-5 minutes. This is not a competitive rally.
This car rally is not a race and is intended for the fun of each driver and navigator. The route should take a little over an hour to complete and has been selected for all members to enjoy some of our most picturesque back roads in Niagara.

Before the rally begins, participants will be given a sheet with directions and rally questions to be answered along the way between each turn. Co-pilots must complete the sheets during the rally and submit them at the end of the rally.
It is therefore recommended that members sign up for this event in pairs, although you are welcome to drive the rally route on your own and do your best to record the answers.
Correctly answered questions will be counted and totaled at the conclusion of the event to determine winners.
Please drive safely and obey the rules of the road.
At the conclusion of the rally, a BBQ lunch will be served in the parking lot at Club Capri. Members can socialize and enjoy lunch as they complete the rally course.
The cost of the lunch is $20 per member. This payment must be received by eTransfer before June 3rd, or by cash or cheque at the June 3rd Club Meeting at Niagara College.
A rain date has been scheduled for the next day at the same time and location.
Please use the RSVP link below to sign up for this event. Please provide your name(s) and email address, and as always, please enter 1 Guest if you are attending the event on your own, or enter 2 guests if your spouse or partner is also attending.

We will enjoy a one hour private tour of the Brown Homestead at 1317 Pelham Road, St. Catharines at 10 am, through the John Brown House and around the property to the heritage buildings on site. Tours are conversational and interactive. We focus on the story of what brought the Loyalist Brown family to settle here, how they built the house, and the family farm that operated here. We explore the other families that lived here, and also give you a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the ongoing restoration of the site – what we’ve uncovered and the heritage craftsmanship of the home.
The tour is free for our group, the staff has suggested a voluntary donation of $5 per member to support their preservation efforts.
We will then head down Effingham Street for a short drive to the Sons and Daughters Winery at 1389 Effingham St, Ridgeville for wine tastings and by-the-glass available, the cafe will be open, and will very likely have the pizza oven up and running as well.
https://www.sonsdaughterswinery.com/
The starting location for this tour is the usual parking lot in front of the Bulk Barn at Fourth Avenue and Vansickle Road (near Walmart and Canadian Tire) at 9:30 am on Sunday June 15th.
Please arrive early, as we will be departing on time for the short drive to the Brown Homestead.
Please use the RSVP link below to sign up for this event. Space is limited for this tour.
As always, please enter 1 Guest if you are attending the event on your own, or enter 2 guests if your spouse or partner is also attending.

Thorold Community Market & Car Show
2025-06-11 17:00 - 21:00 | Battle of Beaverdams Park, Sullivan Avenue, Thorold, Ontario, L2V 3K1, Canada
The Antique Car Show has been a part of Downtown Thorold for a very long time.

Every Wednesday Evening starting June 11th – September 3rd (weather permitting)
Building on the success of the last two years’ Thorold Community Market held at the Battle of Beaverdams Park and the Thorold BIA Car Show, the City and the BIA has decided to once again, combine both popular events on the same day for the enjoyment of residents of all ages in our community.

Grand Bend Track Day: Exclusive Track Rental for NCC Members at Grand Bend Motorplex
2025-06-10 14:00 - 17:00 | Grand Bend MotorPlex, 70292 Grand Bend Line, Grand Bend, Ontario, Canada
Tuesday June 10th, 2025 – 2 to 5 pm raceway rental
We have another great opportunity this year to take your Corvette out on the technical track (road course) in a controlled environment with your fellow Club members.
The track is fully staffed with a Marshall and corner workers, and we limit the number of cars at a time to approximately 6 Corvettes. Our target group size for this event is 12 cars, although we could allow for 14 in total. This sets the cost per car at just over $100.00 for the event, which is a great value for a private track rental that provides everyone with a tremendous amount of track time.
Each group of cars typically stays out on the track for 15 to 20 minutes at a time, after which you will want to pull back into the pits and cool yourself and the car down. Entry is controlled by the Marshall, but you can exit at any time. Passing and corner rules are to be strictly followed, and drivers are allowed to proceed around the course at their own comfort level. Passengers are allowed in the vehicle on the track (no extra cost for passengers and spectators), although helmets are required for all participants.
There is enough track time available that we may allocate a session for those who really want to test the limits of their Corvette.

Our group would meet at Prudhommes Landing around 9 am for the 2-1/2 hour drive to Grand Bend. Same as last year, a large group from the Corvette Club of Ontario is on the track before us, so arriving early provides a great opportunity to watch them in action on the track and socialize with a lot of Corvette enthusiasts.
Club members who would like to join in the drive to Grand Bend and watch the track event, without taking their Corvette on the track, are welcome to do so without any cost. Please email me separately at events@niagaracorvetteclub.com to indicate your interest in just the drive and being a spectator.
Please use the RSVP link to sign up for this event. Just enter 1 Guest for yourself, as we don’t need to know how many passengers/spectators are attending. Once the total number of attendees is confirmed, payment and event details will be provided.
Any Club members who are planning on attending the Windsor Corvette Show on June 8 may choose to stay over and drive directly to Grand Bend on June 10. Please let me know if you are doing this, so we can plan our group size from Prudhommes Landing.
Please contact Craig Gemmel at events@niagaracorvetteclub.com with any questions.

The June 3rd meeting will feature a guest speaker Juan McLean, from Seniors on the Move.
A new bylaw concerning the inclusion of Alternate Members at Club events will be presented and voted on.
Please review the By-Law amendment below regarding the proposal to create a new class of membership within the Niagara Corvette Club to allow Alternate Members to be designated as substitutes for a Primary Member or their Affiliate Member on a non-subsidized club event. Click here to review the proposed bylaw (PDF).
Club meetings will be held on the first Tuesday of each month (unless otherwise specified) at 7:30 pm at the Niagara College Welland Campus. The Campus is located at 100 Niagara College Boulevard and is accessible from Woodlawn Road, First Avenue, and Rice Road. Enter by the Main Entrance, the Campus Entrance (follow the North Road), the West Entrance, or the Chippawayan Blvd Entrance, only westbound from Woodlawn Road. Easy access is from Hwy 406 from the north or south across Woodlawn Road, or from Niagara Street or South Pelham Road, south of Regional Road 20.
Meetings will be held in Lecture Room S135, adjacent to the Cafeteria and the Commons Entrance (please refer to the maps and photos included below). This also includes free parking after 5 pm in Lot C2 and C3, which is safeguarded by Security Personnel and cameras. For reference, these lots are to the Northeast of Lot D, where the Niagara College Car Show was held last year.
The parking lot C3 is just a short walk to the Commons Entrance that leads into the Food Court/Cafeteria, and there is a circular driveway/drop off area on the North Road beside the doors, as shown below:

As in the photo below, the Commons Entrance leads into a large seating area right next to the Food Court, which features Tim Hortons, Subway, Pizza Pizza and others. Hours may vary and be shortened in the summer months.
We recommend that you arrive at the Campus and park in Lot C3 at 6 pm or thereafter, as that will allow you plenty of time to get a coffee, or a drink, or a snack in the Food Court, and then sit down and socialize with other Club Members in the generous seating area of the Cafeteria.

For those members looking for a more formal place to eat before arriving at Niagara College, we suggest trying Boston Pizza or M.T. Bellies on Niagara Street near Quaker Road, or Chuck’s Roadhouse Bar & Grill at 647 Niagara Street, just south of Woodlawn Road.
As in the photo above, the short hallway directly beside the Wellness Lounge (this is just a few steps from the Commons Entrance, across from the computer screen shown below) leads down to Lecture Room S135, with washrooms located at the opposite end of the hall.
Directly inside the first door of Room S135 will be our usual layout of name badges, club information, and tickets. The room itself has tremendous acoustics, and also features a multimedia display screen and audio system. There is a generous amount of seating in an ampitheatre format. The room is reserved for our use, and requires no set up or teardown. Food and drinks are permitted; we just ask that you clean up any items that you bring in.
The meeting will start at 7:30 pm, so please make your way from the Food Court before that time.
