Colorado River Corvette Club
MEMBER NEWS
Dear CRCC family:
It's always hard to announce the passing of members but our dear friend and CRCC member John Meyers passed away quietly this past week.
John and Bonny joined the club on November 3, 2016 and drove a beautiful 2016 ZR1 racing yellow coupe.
John was a friend to all and was considered a gentle giant with a smile you would not forget, hands as big as a bear and a handshake that told you he cared about people and their friendships. John and Bonny went on several road trips with the club and always were fun to have along.
John always looked sharp with his collar up on all the sweatshirts he wore and soon after, members started ordering them because they looked so good on him. I have several myself!
John was one of my favorites and always had a kind word to say about the club and our programs. He was a regular member of the "men's lunch bunch" which started almost five (5) years ago thanks to Steve McClellan.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to wife Bonny and their family.
No word on services, but we will keep you posted if they are announced.
God Bless our dear friend John Meyers.
Greg Attl
President
Congratulations to our 2025 CRCC Award Winners Shown Below
Bob Beynon
President's Award
The President’s Award is given to a member who has over the course of the year given back to our club and volunteered countless hours on a variety of committees for the benefit of its members. As President, it is my pleasure to present this award...again tonight
He has served on the Board of Directors for the past two (2) years as Treasurer. His watchful eye on expenses has given this club the flexibility to enjoy yearly events, as well as support our local charities and organizations that need help during the year.
It’s not easy being Treasurer, collecting money for dues, upcoming concerts and events, 50/50, Badge it or Lose it, and Quartermaster all in one sitting, and keeping track of it all as members are throwing money at you, not to mention making deposits for ALL of those events and keeping track of who’s signed up!!
His calm demeanor and “attention to detail” comes easy because of his long history in the banking business, and it’s been a perfect fit. His opinion are real…. and well respected. He has truly been a great asset to this team.
We are grateful to him for his leadership, hard work, dedication and ongoing support to the Colorado River Corvette Club, and with that....................... it is my pleasure to present this year’s
President’s Award to a good friend…. and our great Treasurer, Mr. Bob Beynon.

Volunteer's Award
VOLUNTEERS OF THE YEAR 2025
Volunteers are the cornerstone of any club, and are vital to its success.
The Volunteer of the Year Award recognizes individual members, outside of the Board of Directors, for their “valuable and selfless” commitment, and contributions made to members of, and for this club.
Our club is very lucky to have members who volunteer when needed without being asked and they do it regardless of the situation.
​
This year we are blessed with these two (2) gentleman who in “looking forward” for the betterment of our club, put together an Auto Cross program that will in the future, raise funds for this club and allow us to give back even more to our local communities. This Auto Cross program I feel is going to be a “big hit”.
​
For their vision, countless hours, dedication and continued support to the Colorado River Corvette Club, it is my pleasure to present the Volunteer Of The Year Award to two (2) very deserving gentleman who worked as a “team” to get this program off the ground for the betterment of our club.
​
Please join me in recognizing our 2025 Volunteers of the Year. Jim Zaborsky &

We are very thankful for Anderson’s “comfortable way” of doing business, and for their continued support to our members, and to this club including opening up - not only the Kingman Dealership, but also Bullhead City and Lake Havasu service departments to make it convenient for all of us.
