SHINING STAR AWARDS FOR UNDER 25 YEAR OLD PARTICIPANTS
EXPANDED for 2012
The Muscle Car
and Corvette Nationals team is pleased to announce
expansion of our Shining Star
awards, for participants under the age of 25. After a talk
with Dominic Rossi and Stacy Walters-Rossi, owners of TWO
Corvettes that are entered in the show this year, about
ways to encourage the younger hobbyist to participate, we
came up with a way to expand the appeal. Joining forces
with their company,
ProArc
Electrical Construction
Company, Dominic and Stacy have stepped up to
allow us to expand this year to present not just one, but
THREE of these very special awards for 2012. “We
really like to see the younger folks who are getting into
the hobby,” Dominic stated. “We asked Bob how we could
help out, and we all agreed that by expanding the awards,
it would help to encourage more participation.” So this
year, we will be presenting three very special
crystal awards to three of our younger participants. These
awards will be presented Saturday to the lucky winners
right at their show vehicle, so that they can enjoy the
accolades while the show is still open. Of course, we will
also be announcing these winners at our Sunday awards
presentation!
To be eligible
for these awards, applicants must provide proof in advance
that the vehicle entered is titled in the name of the
under 25 year old participant. The winners will be chosen
from the best with additional consideration given for the
candidates participation and enthusiasm. The actual awards
will be unlike any of our others, as they are very modern
and futuristic crystal awards that will be admired for
many years to come. If you, or someone you know, has
entered or plans to enter and is under 25, and has his or
her name on the title, please let us know. The show is
filling up at a record pace, (many categories are already
full), so get your entry and proof of ownership to us
today.
Thank You Stacy
and Dominic!

LOOKING
FOR SOME SPECIFIC CARS FOR SPECIAL DISPLAYS;
Thanks to everyone that responded to my call for specific
cars for some of our Invitational displays. Some
absolutely outstanding car entries have allowed me to
check a few more off of my list, but we still have a few
more to go. Looking for fine examples of stock restored or
original 1962 Dodges, Plymouths, Fords, Mercury’s and
Buick’s. If you own a performance oriented model
that is an outstanding example, please let me know. Also
hope to find several more 1972 Mopars for our “Class of
1972” display and Javelins, Boss 302 Mustangs and Cougars
for our “Trans Am Terrors” display. Would like to add some
track/competition cars for this one too! If you have a
possible candidate and want to be a part of the world’s
largest all indoor specialty show devoted to Muscle Cars,
Dealer-built Supercars and the country’s finest Corvettes,
please e-mail me at
