quote:Originally posted by jkeene: One question: Are we doing the special plant tour this year?
Due to a simultaneous event going on at the NCM (The Ruby Reunion), Plant tours will be conducted during normal hours. Steve scheduled our car wash/detail session from 9-11 a.m., the same time as the plant tour, so you won't miss anything important with us if you choose to do the tour instead of sprucing up your car.
The 11a.m. to 2 p.m., meet and greet/lunch is important, so make sure you're done w/the plant tour by then so you can join us for that.
If you are planning on attending the plant tour, be sure to read their instructions.
quote: Corvette Assembly Plant Tour Guidelines (Issued by the Corvette Assembly Plant)
Monday - Friday 9 am and 1 pm
About our Tours Watch the fascinating assembly process of America's favorite sports car in a one mile walking tour. Observe as robots weld the steel structure and our dedicated workforce adds parts in Trim and Chassis. See an engineering marvel as the chassis and body come together in "marriage". Witness the birth of new Corvettes at First Start and the thrilling drive off at the end of the line. We are a handicapped accessible facility.
Days and Times Public Tours are available Monday through Friday at 9 am and 1 PM CT. Reservations for groups of 10 or more are available by calling 270.745.8287.
How to Get Tour Information Keep up to date on status of plant tours by calling 270.745.8419 of logging onto www.bowlinggreenassemblyplant.com. Internal business matters can cause cancellation of tours, so it is best to call ahead.
What to Wear/What to Bring Closed toe shoes (no sandals) are requirement for all visitors. No cameras, backpacks, purses, fanny packs, or other packages or containers may be brought into the plant except by special request (for medical reasons, etc.).
Age Restrictions Children must be seven years of age or older. School groups must be forth grade or above.
Plant Shutdowns Tours are closed on most major Holidays and during the first two weeks in July. Tours may also be canceled during pre-production of future models or due to unexpected business matters, so call tour information ahead!

Firehawk) have signed up for the main NCM event and have asked if it's possible to join in on the SSOA festivities. Thanks!
