Beautiful weather brings many to Corvettes at Roscoe

COSHOCTON – On Sunday, June 12, the Classic Glass Corvette Club rolled into Historic Roscoe Village the same as they have done in so many years past. This year marks the 18^th anniversary of the Corvettes at Roscoe Showcase and boy was it a good one to say the least.

Sunny skies and a great atmosphere brought people from all over Ohio to admire the sight of more than 250 corvettes that elegantly lined Whitewoman Street. It seemed as though the showcase offered something for everybody as cars spanning all decades were proudly on display while owners talked and admired with one another.

According to Mindy Brems, although she may not frequent the showcase as much as others do, this year surprised her in the sheer number of people that came out to enjoy the event.

As can be expected, many shops throughout Roscoe Village saw a substantial increase in customers thanks to the corvette showcase’s influence. With all of the beautiful sights, sounds, and weather that it had to offer, I think it’s safe to say that this year’s showcase was most definitely one of the best.

Here is a list of all those who won awards at the event.
