Vancouver Island Region’s Wochenende
It has been a very busy time. First, there was attendance at the 68th Porsche Parade in Birmingham, AL. As always, it was a great time made so by; a great venue, much to see and do, and of course, the people. I returned home and quickly prepared for a trip north to Kelowna and a visit to BC Interior Region’s Shades of Stuttgart @ KF Centre for Excellence. From their website: The KF Centre for Excellence unveils the fascinating story of aviation in BC—discover how the power of flight has shaped our province, with roots that run all throughout the Okanagan Valley. What a great location to view the ‘Rennbow’ of Porsche colors.
For those long range planners in the audience I would note; Porsche Parade 2025 is scheduled for July 6-12 in Oklahoma City and Porsche Parade 2026 is scheduled for June 14-20 in Lake Placid, NY. The 2024 Fall Treffen will be held at the Omni Bretton Arms Inn at Mt Washington, NH from Sep. 29th – Oct. 3rd. The 2025 Spring Treffen will be held at Omni Homestead Resort in Hot Springs, VA from Apr. 30th – May 3rd.
I would be remiss not mentioning some awards that Zone 6 and its regions received at the 68th Parade: Canada West Region won the PCA National Public Service Award. Heinz Holzapfel, President Oregon Region, won first place for both the Zone 6 website (among Zone websites), and the Oregon website (among Class V – large region websites).
Zone 6 2024 events are filling our calendar. Next up is Treffen at Sea – Cruise to Alaska. Then we will be attending Canada West Region’s Planes and Porsches. Cascade Region’s Lincoln City Car Show. Zone 6 signature events can be found PCA Zone 6 – The Pacific NW Regions. Zone 6 abounds in great roads to drive and great automotive venues.
Parting shot. Porsche and Plane
Stay healthy and we will see you in the Zone in 2024!
