Sure, you’ve heard about the National Council of Corvette Clubs (NCCC), but how much do you know about the group?
For instance, did you know this is an all-volunteer organization? Or that they are a non-profit formed in 1959 by a small group of Corvette enthusiasts?
Today, the NCCC has 250 clubs divided into 16 regions covering the country. All told, they have more than 19,000 members and are considered by many to be the largest non-profit, all-volunteer Corvette organization in the United States.
To tell us more about this venerable organization, Deb Murphy, the newly elected President, shared her considerable insights on our podcast.
