Taste-of-the-Town: Route 66 Classic Grill

2019.07.18 – Taste-of-the-Town: Route 66 Classic Grill

The July Taste of the Town had a little something extra this month. As chance would have it, Thursday, July 18th was not only our social gathering, it was also Chevrolet’s scheduled unveiling of the new, 2020, C8 Corvette! I ask you, would there have been a better place to combine both of those activities than the Route 66 Grill? There would not.

So, a dedicated group of thirty-five members took on the mission of gathering around the always excellent burgers, fries, milkshakes, and apple pie, to anticipate the long-awaited unveiling.

George at Route 66 is always accommodating, and he graciously allowed us to setup a TV on the counter of the soda fountain. So, though the magic of the internet, and some technical stuff from Mark Ware, we were able to live stream the event directly from the Chevrolet website.

The unveiling, like our Taste of the Town dinner, did not disappoint. The new C8 Corvette is a sexy beast, and there is no doubt we will be hearing much more about it in the coming months.
