Michigan Corvette Flag Day

Larry Courtney, a Corvette enthusiast from Michigan, is holding an event that entails making a flag with red, white
and blue Corvettes on Flag Day on Belle Isle to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the United States. He plans on
making the biggest Corvette Flag ever, consisting of over 400 cars, the weekend of June 13-14, 2026. Larry has
enough cars signed up to make the flag, but there will be other activities that weekend that anyone can attend, If

There will be two separate ways to sign up for this event. One is for those in the flag and the other will be for those

the proceeds will be donated to selected veterans charities.
