In the Zone June 2023
Hello Zone 7,
BIG news on upcoming events.
With the weather heating up so many exciting events are happening. I want to shout out a thank you to all those who volunteered at the Laguna Seca IMSA races Porscheplatz. A team of volunteers along with the Porscheplatz crew kept all aspects running perfectly. Those who attended were treated to awesome racing, guest speakers, some were drawn to visit Michelin race headquarters, others to see action in the pits. All those in the Corral had the opportunity to do some memory making parade laps.
Porsches 75th anniversary is this year. The actual date is June 8th, this will be highlighted at many events throughout the year. June 10th and 11th many Porsche Centers (dealers) are celebrating. Check with your local Centers to see if they are holding events.
The BIG news is that the Spring 2024 Treffen will be hosted by Redwood Region!
Treffen Wine Country at the Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn.
Sonoma, California. Sunday April 21st to 25th, 2024 more info to come.

Parade 2023, Palm Springs 18th to 24th is coming up fast, there are 137 Zone 7 Members registered! Please plan on attending the (no extra charge) Zone Gathering on Sunday June 18th from 6pm to 7pm.

I will hold a raffle for all registered attendees of Parade at that mixer.
