June 29th 2018 Marks the 18 Annual “Drive Your Corvette To Work Day!”

Summer is in full swing which means that Corvettes across the nation (and around the world) have come out of winter storage and are once more hitting the open road.  While many owners save their cruising for a lazy Saturday afternoon, it is likely that you’ll see an increased number of Corvettes on America’s highways and by-ways today.

You see, Friday, June 29, 2018 marks the 18th anniversary of the official “Drive Your Corvette To Work Day” Holiday, and Corvette owners from all across the land have been pulling their prized sports car out and celebrating the day by driving their Corvette to work!

But why have a national “Corvette Holiday?”  The answer is really pretty simple.

On June 30th 1953, the first Corvette rolled off the assembly line in Flint, Michigan, and almost immediately gave birth to an American icon.  Since that day, more than 1.6 million Corvettes have been produced.  To say the birth of the Corvette was “revolutionary” is an understatement – it changed the landscape of the American sports car forever and captured the hearts and imaginations of people for generations.
