It was September 20, 2007, when the 6 founding members came together to form what is now referred to as "Corvette Renegades". The group agreed that the official date the club would be launched January 1, 2008. The original 6 were seeking to form a club where the emphasis was on fun for all members. It was quickly decided that the mantra of the club would be "If it ain't fun, don't do it".

Meeting at the Village Idiot in Five Points, where else, the founding members came up with what the new club would be about and set down the guidelines that would guide the club in the future. Their first decision was it would be a club open to Corvette owners only. We would not have an offical board of directors, but crew leaders. A Captain (Dave), Lieutenant (Bill), Quartermaster (Barbara), Navigator (Jim), Warrant Office (Amy), and Purser (Sherri).

A club name was decided on, Corvette Renegades, and from there on, the club started to grow. The main theme of having fun was the main purpose of the club and will be the main focus of this club from here on.

Although there isn't a true "board" to lead the club, there are Crew Masters, the original founding members. The Lieutenant, or XO, was designated as the one person who would serve as a liaison between the crew and the crew masters. The Lieutenant would be responsible to 'take out' the Captain, or mutiny, if needed.

To ensure that Corvette Renegades remains the club it was intended to be, the original six crew masters, or those available at the time, with a majority vote, reserve the right to take over the running of the club at their discretion if it appears that it is headed in a direction other than the original intent.  At the time such a move is anticipated the club will be notified of the plan to "reestablish to original" the Crew Masters.

The Crew Masters would serve for as long as they wished and when the time came that they no longer wished to lead the crew, the Crew Masters would come together to decide who would like to take over as Capt'n of the crew or other crew masters positions by general election or invitation by the sitting Crew Masters. Whoever leads the crew, the main emphasis of the Crew Masters must be, to have fun!

Crew Master Functions:

  • Captain - Guides the crew on the journey and keeps it fun! Conducts meetings.
  • Lieutenant (XO) - There to support and backup the Captain, and take him out by mutiny if crew requests.
  • Quartermaster - Logs the activities of the crew and maintains the inventory of the bounty.
  • Navigator - Sets the direction of voyages and works with crew to ensure they know what’s coming up on future excursions.
  • Chief Warrant Officer - Works to track how many crew are aboard and keeps manifest of all crew information.
  • Purser - Tracks and counts the booty on board.
