The officers of the Peace River Corvette Club and Members are strongly involved in efforts supporting the Charlotte County Special Olympics of Florida.

Our ties with Special Olympic Athletic Manager Stanly Sylverain pictured receiving the PRCC Donation check from the officers, keeps us consistently informed of all Special Olympic activities. 

January 08, 2023 will be PRCC's major fund raiser for the Special Olympics. We are preparing for a great turn out.

The Regional Director of Special Olympics South West Florida, Mr. Ken Roop visited with the Peace River Corvette Club officers to receive the donation. The club voted to donate $850.00 plus, individual members made donations making the total of $1000.00. We all learned more about the Special Olympics and all the things they do for the Athletes. One thing that was Heartbreaking, sixty percent of all special need folks live in poverty. In the future we will invite Mr. Roop to one of our meetings to tell us more about the organization.

Charlotte Technical College students Laura Holzheimer and Dylan Lundblad were this year’s recipients of a scholarship from the Peace River Corvette Club through

Dylan’s girlfriend, Stormy Jenkins and Laura’s grandmother Joann Buell were also present. Tom Viele, Automotive Program Coordinator thanked the Club for the continued support of the College’s automotive program and shared that each student selected was well deserving of the honor received.
