Blessing of the Vettes
Blessing of the Vettes is a People's-Choice Corvette show with Rallyes and Funkhanas following. Since 2005, with the exception of 2020, this show has been held annually to benefit the VFW National Home for Children in Eaton Rapids, Michigan. In 2024, with the help of our participants and mini-sponsors, we raised $2,212 for the home.
This years event was held at City Limits Sports Grill in Mason on June 15, 2024. The morning began with a People's Choice Corvette Show during which entrants had the opportunity to have their Corvettes blessed. Trophies for the People's Choice Corvette Show were sponsored by Shaheen Chevrolet. In addition, representatives from City Limits chose their favorite Corvette for a sponsor's choice trophy.
Two funkhanas were held in City Limit's parking lot immediately following the Corvette show for those who wished to participate. (Funkhanas are low-speed, light-hearted competitions that are done with our Corvettes testing the dexterity and patience of a driver and navigator.) The funkhanas were followed by a 20+ mile road rallye testing our ability to follow instructions and look for clues. All-in-all, a fun day for a good cause.
The VFW National Home for Children is a community open to the families of active-duty military personnel, veterans and relatives of veterans of foreign wars, and to VFW auxiliary members. Families receiving assistance can consist of one or both parents with one or more children.
