CCR Cruisers have really enjoyed this event in the past. Food is great, beer even better, service was great, and the view was spectacular. It's worth the early morning start time for this event. Last year we set inside as in the past. CCR will try to get inside seating again for the club. 

There are no reservations accepted, but an exception has been made by the manager regarding CCR. So please register online with the club website in order for an accurate count of members attending so CCR can provide the count to the Manager several days before July 11, 2026.

CRR has been in contact with manager to arrange the date and the date is set. This way the staff that will be responsible for seating us will know in advance. The restaurant opens at 11:00 am and you stay as long as you like.

Lunch & Great View

August 1, 2026, 9:00 AM

OD - Kirby Montgomery

This is a great venue for a morning cruise on the backroads to the Trump Winery. Forget your partisan and political views, leave them at home; come for a morning start and enjoy spending your afternoon with your CCR friends. Light lunch and refreshment of your choice with a spectacular view of the surroundings mountains, and the vineyards.

Starting on Route 15 heading north is a great drive in your Corvette. The last legs of the drive will test your mountain driving skills. You may also want to bring your driving shoes and gloves to be prepared for the mountains. Some of the views belong on post cards. Afterward a leisurely drive back home. Send your pictures to Penny Johnson to post on the club website.

Check out their website before you say no! Thanks to Kirby, Trump’s manager has made an exception for CCR to have as many members come as possible, with some special seating arrangements in the main rotunda. The club will have extra special parking in the Trump Winery Courtyard! This is a unique courtesy extended to the Corvette Club of Richmond. Sign up now if you would like to go!!!

CCR members can go to the wine service bar and get whatever wine or food they want and pay their own way. Normally for a group reservation they require one form of payment for the group, but that will not apply to CCR members and guest. 

Plan to meet at McDonald's, 11280 Patterson Ave., Richmond at 9:00 AM; drivers meeting 9:20 AM; depart at 9:30 AM. The route to be taken below takes about 1 hr, 20 minutes, so arrival at Trump approximately 11:00 AM (they open 11:00 AM).  These times have been updated.
