The National Corvette Museum Foundation acts
as the steward for the international Corvette enthusiast, by managing, directing and operating the National
Corvette museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky, USA. The Foundation was formed in order to construct a world class
facility that would showcase the world famous sports car called the Corvette. The Museum was opened on Labor Day
weekend in 1994. At that time, the NCM Foundation stated that the Museum belonged to all the Corvette enthusiasts
and therefore it was their Museum.
The NCM Foundation is helping fulfill that commitment by establishing a new and exciting program that encourages
and facilitates participation from the Corvette Enthusiast community in the future development of the National
Corvette Museum.
PURPOSE
The purpose of the Ambassador Program is to
provide Corvette clubs/organizations and enthusiasts, a two way communication link to the NCM. This program
provides several opportunities to offer support through participation and involvement in the functions of the
Museum. The mission statement of the Museum is to preserve the legendary automobile's past, present, and future.
Corvette clubs/organizations and enthusiasts can play an important role in this mission by providing the NCM and
its staff guidance and assistance.
SCOPE
The program is international in scope, and
Corvette enthusiasts from throughout the world are invited and encouraged by the Board of Directors and staff of
the NCM to participate in this innovative program.
FUNCTION
Each participating Corvette club/organization
will nominate/select an "Ambassador" to act as the representative /liaison of that club/organization to
the National Corvette Museum. The person selected to be an "Ambassador" will have a distinct interest
in the success and future of the Museum.
The Ambassador's mission will be that of
receiving and disseminating the most current and correct information from the Museum, and to convey that
information to their local Corvette club/organization. The Ambassador will act as a Museum representative to
promote and solicit support for the Museum through promotional activities and encourage other Corvette
enthusiasts to join the Museum. Additionally, the Ambassador will be the voice of the Corvette club/organization,
communicating concerns, ideas and suggestions to the NCM.
