        image_59280.jpg First a correction... sorry about not knowing the first Hot Wheels Camaros were 2013's, not 2012's... my bad. Please forgive!! Here is your NEXT BIG announcement........

        ANNOUNCING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
        At CAMARO SUPERFEST 2018, our 27th annual event, we are very pleased to announce our Friday tour schedule... and it’s another doozy!!

        CAMARO SUPERFEST is very pleased to announce that we will be returning to the COPO BUILD CENTER! We are the only Camaro event to be able to offer this tour and the only one that has been there before (2013)!! This will be a morning tour and in the afternoon, we’ve arranged more time at the famed GM HERITAGE CENTER! There... a special historic Camaro display will be shown, featuring such cars as the only COPO convertible, the last Z28 built at the St Therese plant, 67-69-03 Indy Pace Camaros and many more! In one day... you will get exclusive views of how the Camaro COPO factory drag cars are made and see GM history through the most extensive collection of GM cars on the planet!

        We are still working on something for Friday night... it will be scheduled when registration opens.

        Our website is going through extensive renovations and we expect it to be ready for our opening of registration, in mid-February! Watch here for the official announcement of that day and time.
        We hope to see YOU and all of your Camaro friends, at CAMARO SUPERFEST 2018!!!

                  HELLO from CAMARO SUPERFEST HQ.... !!! We have 2 very important and great announcements to make. Please share this information with any and all you know...!! Here is the first.... (the second will follow very soon...)
                  Those that have signed-up for the COPO Build Center tour on Friday morning... Chevrolet will be having a lunch for us!! It could simply be hotdogs and chips... but it is included with your tour!! ALSO - Chevrolet will have some specially made CSF-COPO t-shirts for sale (approx. $20 each) and these will be available while you are on the tour. Many of those already registered for CSF signed up for both tours, but did not take advantage of our "Tour Package" that would have saved you $5 per person. Well... we at CSF are not about to take advantage of you and those that signed up for both tours and did not use the discount... we'll have that discount waiting for you at registration... in cash!! Last item on the COPO tour... if you have not registered and signed-up for the tour... DO SO NOW!! We have 135 registered to go on the tour. We have been asked to hold the number of attendees at 170!! Once we reach that number, we will close down the COPO Tour. Thanks....!

                    Our next announcement is a real fun one!! On Saturday night, while at the Lingenfelter Collection Tour with pizza dinner, we will hold a LIVE auction. We will have 10-15 items specially selected for this auction. One of the items could be the nice donation from Camaros of Michigan (see photo). The catch... (you knew there would be one....) you will need CAMARO MONEY to use in the auction!! How do you get Camaro Money.... all of those registered to go will get $200 per car entry. Then at registration and event HQ from Thursday to Saturday, we will have 800 envelopes of Camaro Money for you to purchase for $2 each or 3 for $5. How much money will be in those envelopes? You don't know until you open them!! Buy as many as you want, but once they are gone.... that's it!! We will have denominations of $50, $100, $200, $500 and a few $1000 bills! Thus... you could spend $10-$20 and end up with $3000-$6000 of Camaro Money to use at the auction!! We hope you will like this twist on a live auction. We are hoping this method will be much more fun for all... and still help our charity efforts!! THANKS to the Ontario Camaro Club... who pioneered this many years ago... it was a blast then and we hope it will be a blast again!!
                    AND... Acceptance Letters will start to be emailed out this weekend!! Watch your email....!
                    And one more request.... please PRAY for good weather (as in dry!!) THANKS!!!

                      WOW... I so like to be FIRST and bring you another great announcement! (the 3rd in 2 days!!)

                      JUST ARRANGED... we will have a ?Book Signing? at CAMARO SUPERFEST 2018!! This will happen on Saturday, June 30 from 11AM-3PM. We will also acquire a few copies of this book, signed by the author and we will try to get anyone that is featured in the book, that is present, to sign as well! These specially signed books will appear in several of our charity auctions! Here is the information we received today, from the author, Chris Lezotte PhD........

                      A few years ago I visited the CAMARO SUPERFEST to recruit participants for a chapter in my dissertation focused on women and classic muscle cars. That initial project was eventually expanded to include women with all generations of American muscle and developed into a book ? Power Under Her Foot: Women Enthusiasts of American Muscle Cars - just released this spring. I am writing to inquire about the possibility of a book signing during the CAMARO SUPERFEST 2018 weekend. As the event attracts a fair number of female muscle car aficionados, I believe there would be a significant amount of interest in this subject matter among participants and spectators alike. I would enjoy the opportunity to share the stories of 88-muscle-car-loving women, many who may be exhibiting that day.

                      As for my background, I am a Detroit native and spent my past life in advertising as a VP creative group supervisor. A few of those ad years were spent at McCann Erickson writing commercials for Buick and GMC Truck. Although I am not a ?car nut? by any stretch of the imagination, I find the automobile to be endlessly fascinating. I received my PhD from Bowling Green State University in 2015 [at the age of 66!] and I have dedicated my research to the relationship between women and cars.
                      Sincerely,
                      Chris Lezotte PhD
                      Independent Scholar
