Corvette Fun Fest

Hosted annually by Mid America Motorworks at their 150-acre corporate campus in Effingham, Illinois, the Corvette Funfest brings together over 15,000 Corvettes and 45,000 Corvette enthusiasts each September. In this high-definition episode of WSIU InFocus, Mid America Motorworks owner, Mike Yager, takes us on a personal tour of the free event, which Yager says is his way of saying "thank-you" to his Corvette customers from every region of the nation. Attendees enjoy a wide selection of activities, including free technical sessions, tours of the manufacturing facility, book signings by Corvette authors, Corvette car auctions, and much more. This year's event will take place on September 16-18. Pre-registered Funfest guests will have a chance to win a Fender® Stratocaster autographed by Don Felder, former lead guitarist with The Eagles!
