About Us
We joined because of the car. We stay because of the people.
We are a group of Corvette owners who share a passion for restoring, showing and promoting the Chevrolet Corvette. Our members actively participate in social, charitable, and show-orientated events, including dinner and lunch cruises, picnics, road tours, and other auto-related events. Through these activities, we bring people together to enjoy driving Corvettes, build lasting relationships, and raise funds for meaningful causes.
The GMC Corvette Set was established in March of 1976 when a group of GM Truck and Bus employees came together over a shared enthusiasm for Corvettes. By August of that same year, they hosted the club's first annual Corvette car show. Since then, our membership has grown from a few Corvette owners to (162) members today.
In 1982, we proudly selected Leader Dogs for the Blind as our charity of choice. Since then, the proceeds from our premier annual car show, Corvette Fest, have supported their mission. As of December of 2025, we have donated a total of $375,000 to help fund programs that serve their clients.
Corvette Fest, our largest annual car show, has been held at scenic Canterbury Village since 2005. The event has earned a reputation as one of the most unique Corvette-only car shows in the region, typically featuring around (125) Corvettes on the grounds for judging each year. The rolling and shaded grounds of Canterbury Village create an ideal setting for a full day of family fun centered around these iconic Corvettes.
Each summer, GMC Corvette Set also hosts two Cars and Coffee events at Leader Dogs for the Blind in Rochester, MI. These gatherings welcome Corvette owners as well as enthusiasts of classic and muscle cars, giving participants the opportunity to showcase their vehicles and connect with others who share their passion.
Over the years, the club has grown into a self-supporting nonprofit organization with an active and diverse membership spanning all ages and interests. We proudly continue to celebrate the Corvette lifestyle and value the strong sense of community within our club. We are also grateful for the ongoing support of Wally Edgar Chevrolet, our long-time corporate sponsor.
In March 2026, we celebrated our 50th anniversary as a Corvette club and will mark this milestone throughout the year at our events and gatherings. We invite you to join us as we continue to share our enthusiasm for the best automobile ever built... The Corvette.
