NCM Ambassador
A while back, I posted an inquiry in a previous thread in this forum to our members looking for a volunteer to act as an NCM Ambassador. Nobody here stepped up to the plate.
Since my goal here is to increase communication between the members of the Corvette Action Center and the National Corvette Museum - any possible way, I will apply for the position.
For those of you wondering what this position involves, in case you would like to join me, the following information comes directly from the NCM's web site: http://www.corvettemuseum.com/ambassadors/index.shtml

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.

SELECTION
The Corvette club/organization shall submit an application naming its selection of an ambassador to the NCM. The Ambassador must be a current member of the National Corvette Museum. The NCM will process the application and mail the Ambassador their welcome kit. The selected Ambassador will then be the point of contact for the NCM
COMMUNICATION
The National Corvette Museum produces a newsletter for Ambassadors, Ambassadors Review, which will be mailed to each Ambassador when important new information develops at the NCM. This, along with the NCM newsletter, will serve as the information link to Ambassadors. The Corvette clubs/organizations are invited to send their club newsletter to the NCM to be included in the library. Ambassadors are encouraged to contact Stephanie Ferrell at any time for assistance with projects or questions.
AMBASSADOR MEETINGS
Ambassadors are encouraged to attend NCM membership meetings. At least one Ambassador meeting will be held each year in conjunction with our Corvette Celebration each Labor Day Weekend.
