Chuck, Sharon & Kim Fast

The Bowling Green Area Convention and Visitors Bureau Board of Directors have approved a $400,000 grant to the National Corvette Museum to be used in the construction of the west track in the Museum’s planned Motorsports Park. 

The Bowling Green City Commission and Warren County Fiscal Court are expected to approve the grant the week of March 18th at their respective meetings.

In January the National Corvette Museum published a feature in their newsletter on Chuck, Sharon & Kim Fast of Northville, Mich. becoming a member of their “One Acre Club”. Joining the One Acre Club was a family affair with their late daughter, Kimberlee, in mind, as that’s what she would have wanted. With the announcement that the One Acre Club fundraiser would be ending this year, December 31, 2013, Chuck and Sharon have decided to honor their daughter by making her the very first “Four Acre Club” member.

“Kimberlee loved autocrossing in her Corvette and was a big part of the National Corvette Museum, attending many events there until she was diagnosed with AML leukemia in January of 2007. We thought this gesture would honor her legacy,” said Chuck. “We know that Kimberlee would have been at the NCM Motorsports Park for any and every opportunity. We can’t think of a better way to honor her memory than to make her a Four Acre Club member.”

The Fast family are Lifetime Members of the Museum, and are avid Corvette enthusiasts. Chuck has owned a total of 19 Corvettes, including many Z06’s and a 2011 ZR1 that he took Museum delivery of in October 2010. Kimberlee also participated in the R8C Delivery program when she purchased her new 2004 Corvette on her 30th birthday, which she treasured until losing her battle with AML leukemia in 2010.
