    The party was well attended with the Chapter supplying BBQ and soft drinks. Attendees brought an abundance of delicious pot luck sides and delicious desserts. We were challenged with a competitive game of Presidential but not political questions, did a little bit of "Gambling", participated in a gift exchange or “Dirty Santa” gift game while the University of Oklahoma's Quarterback received the Heisman Trophy Award on a TV in the background. Many attendees brought an unwrapped toy that will be donated to the U.S. Marine Toys for Tots campaign that distributes toys to needy children across the Tulsa area.(Thanks Verle)

    Ever Misplace Your Key Fob? - It might be right under your Nose

    One of our New Corvette owners took his car in for its First Oil Change. He picked up the car at the Dealer and drove off he failed to notice that his Key Fob was not in it's usual spot - In the Cup Holder. When he tried to lock the car, the car would not stay locked and "Beeped" twice to let him know the car wasn't locked. The next day the frustrated owner returned to the dealer (some 50 miles from his house) to ask the service writer where his keys were. The service writer claimed he didn't know but come to find out the "mechanic" who did the oil change, placed the Key Fob in the Key Fob Holder in the steering column that the Vette owner didn't know existed. Did you Know?

    Here is where the Key Fob was found.

    Go here for everything you wanted to know about the operation of your new 2017 Corvette (But were afraid to ask). Be sure to review pages 4 and 5 for safety and security reasons.
