The Flood City Corvette Club was started in 1973 by a small group of Corvette owners who purchased their new or used Corvettes from Rudy Haupt Chevrolet in Johnstown, PA. Rudy Haupt sponsored our club until 1981 when Ron Davidson Chevrolet of Ebensburg, PA took over due to the Haupt dealership closing its doors. The club welcomed and has worked in conjunction with Watkins Chevrolet of Boswell as our sponsor since 2003 until it closed its doors in 2009. In 2010 the club welcomed Cover Chevrolet of Windber as our sponsor. Our club may have started small but it was done properly by being incorporated in 1974 as a non-profit organization complete with written bylaws and a constitution. The club has maintained itself for the last 36 years with a core group as well as members coming and going for various reasons. Several members have recieved merit awards for 10 consecutive years of club participation. We also have several members who have achieved "Lifetime Membership" status by holding a membership for more than 20 years. We still have a few of our founding members. The club's activities have included week long displays inside local shopping malls to sponsoring our cruise-in/fly-in at the Johnstown Airport and car shows at the Jennerstown Speedway. Together we have enjoyed road rallies, Sunday drives to historic sites, annual summer picnics, dinners at local restaurants, attending car shows, and our annual Valentine Dinner and Christmas Banquet. Several local charities have received donations from funds raised at our cruise-in/fly-in and car show events. You are all cordially invited to review our activities calendar and join us anytime you are in the Johnstown area.
