President's 2026 Message

Greetings CdeO members—past, present, and future!

2026 is here, and I am thrilled to begin the year with a renewed passion to grow, to give, to drive, and to experience all that this incredible club can think, plan, and dream together!

2025 was a year filled with new drives, new members, and new officers. As your newly elected President, my goal was to learn how to lead, to truly listen, and to share the enthusiasm and joy I feel every time I start my Corvette and hit the road with all of you.

As we move into 2026, I look forward to building on what I’ve learned from each of you and continuing to grow as a leader of this extraordinary club. Thank you for your support and for showing up—strong and committed—for the tours, the meetings, the planning, Vette Fest 2025, and most importantly, for the shared love of the car… the Corvette. Here’s to 2026!

Let’s get after it!

Cherry Dalrymple

President, Corvettes de Olympia
