Bernie and Wayne where invited to assist Stuart Sobek, the Founder of the upcoming Las Vegas Concours d' Elegeance and Vance Walker,  the LVCE Managing Director, in some of the planning and logistics for their first time event.  Sometimes getting an experienced set of eyes on a new event is a good idea and the guys in Las Vegas have all the trappings needed to host a truly stellar concours.

Before we delve into the details, there's a few things you should know like when is it and what is the story behind the cool art deco logo.
The inaugural Las Vegas Concours d' Elegance will take place October 25 - 29, 2019.

The 2019 Las Vegas Concours d' Elegance will mark the introduction of the Helene Awards, as a tribute to Helene Rother, the first woman to work as an automotive designer for General Motors with a history that dates back to 1943.

Dragon Ridge - The Concours Location

Dragon Ridge 18th Green Concours Awards
Stuart, Vance & Wayne are looking down at where the LVCE Awards Stage will be located. The views are AMAZING!
The Concours happens on  Saturday, October 26, 2019, from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm  at the Dragon Ridge Country Club. which is about a 20 minute drive from the Bellagio host hotel for the Concours events.

Much of our time was helping develop the field layout, shuttle stops locations, trailer parking locations and discussing how to plan for traffic flow and staging.
Vance Walker, Bernard Martin Dragon Ridge ConcoursWhen Bernie said "How can you go wrong with view like this?!?!" It brought a big smile to Vance.
Dragon Ridge Country Club has a bit of a Scottish Highlands feel to it.  It's located in the MacDonald Highlands, which are a series of highly affluent residential neighborhoods in Henderson, Nevada in the foothills of Black Mountain. The neighborhood is part of the Las Vegas Valley and it sits on the edges of the McCullough Mountains and overlooks much of Henderson and Greater Las Vegas including the Las Vegas Strip.

Dragonridge Country Club is one of the highest points of Greater Las Vegas. Guard-gated, it is  more than 170 acres of rolling hills overlooking the Las Vegas skyline. It's quite a sight to behold and promises to be an amazing location for a Concours.

Take a peek at the slideshow below and check out some of the initial planning that is being worked on!
