Come for the cars …. Continue for the people!

May Day is a European festival of ancient origins marking the beginning of summer, usually celebrated on 1 May, around halfway between the spring equinox and summer solstice. Modern traditions are still observed in the USA in many communities. Let’s CELEBRATE MAY, not just MAY DAY!
There is so much planned, it’s hard to get it all listed here, but I will do my best, and take you through the next 6 weeks.
- May 9th Park Plaza Club Dinner – Arizona Mountain Region : Porsche Club of America (pca.org) There are 4 spots left and then we are full! Use the REGISTER HERE and join us!
- May 18th Alpios Tour and Lunch at Creekside – Arizona Mountain Region : Porsche Club of America (pca.org) Join us here for Cars & Coffee and surround yourself with Classic Cars & Motorcycles. Also scheduled is a viewing of a private car collection in Cave Creek. Get the details and REGISTER HERE.
- June 2nd RESCHEDULED: AZM Region Spring Autocross – Arizona Mountain Region : Porsche Club of America (pca.org) I didn’t think we would get this done, BUT WE DID! All the information is on our website, and once you are registered you will receive more information as the date gets closer. Remember we simplified the course to make it more fun for everyone. If you tried it last year, rest assured this year will be MUCH BETTER!
- June 7th Another Social at the Jasper Clubhouse in Prescott Valley. Excellent food and drink, and a fabulous view to end the first week of June. Details and sign ups will be available soon, so save the date!
Don’t forget about the regularly scheduled Porsches and Pancakes, May 11th and June 8th are the upcoming dates.
BIG NEWS ~ Our entire membership is invited to join the May Board Meeting on the 15th at 7:00 pm.
- Please respond to this email that you are interested in participating and before the meeting date you will receive a ZOOM link with instructions on how to join. We will conduct our regular business first and then take questions and comments from the members who join us.
We all received the email from Zone 8 about the spectacular Porsches and Parks trip scheduled for October 2024 arranged by the Vinyard Region which is a small club like ours, established on Nov 29th, 2021, and still growing with approx. 180 members today. I have reached out to Victoria to see how we can meet them in Prescott for dinner and join the drive to Jerome/Sedona. If you have the time to join them for the entire trip, it sounds like an unbelievable one! More on this once we see what’s possible.
I attended a Zone 8 meeting earlier this week and a notable fact to relay is that National is celebrating the 70th Anniversary next year. They have asked that we hold September 13th, 2025, for a celebration. It’s just a teaser, no other details were given so as soon as I have something else, I will be sure to let everyone know.
If you got this far, thanks for reading! I am looking forward to seeing you join in the planned activities. Remember we do all this planning for you, and we try to do a good mix of weekends and weekdays to be as inclusive as possible.
Respectfully yours,
Lorraine Friedman
