2024 Spring Clean Event

April 20, 2024 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm

Free

Join us for the Annual Spring Clean Event at Matrix Integrated, located at 4000 SW Macadam Ave in the South Waterfront District.  Matrix Integrated is a sponsor of the club and they have graciously allowed us to use their garage on this Saturday. Experts will be on hand to take care of all those niggling cosmetic issues that have been eating at you for who knows how long. Get them all taken care of at once, and at a great price, from our team of pros. Crack open your piggy banks or stop at the ATM, as all services are for cash. Sorry, no plastic is accepted at this event!

Here is the line-up of vendors:

  1. Factory Wheel Outlet – Wheel Rash Repair
  2. The Leather Guy – Interior Leather Reconditioning
  3. The Dent Guy – Paintless Dent Repair
  4. Showroom New – Paint Chip Touch-Up
  5. River City Glass – Windshield Chip Repair and Headlight Lens Restoration

You must RSVP for this event.  Registration is open.

When you RSVP, you will need to pick the service(s) you are interested in so we can give the vendors an idea of the number of people using them. If you are bringing more than 1 car, please register for each car and service.  Please ONLY bring Porsches to this event. 

When you arrive, check in and get on the list for the work you want done, and have fun watching those dings, scratches and chips fade away.  Work is done on a first come, first serve basis.  

If you have questions, please reach out to Mike O’Connor at [email protected]

Maintaining Momentum

Oregon Region is marching through the year at a steady pace. March turned out 11 events, which may be a record for this time of year. Even though it is still early, we have seen a couple of new events on our calendar including the new dining event, Road and Fork, and an out-of-town tech session in Tacoma. I was thrilled at the number of new faces attending the New Member Orientation. Be sure to check out stories about each of those later in this edition.
I realize now one of the key elements of having so many events on the calendar is maintaining momentum while not over- burdening our volunteers. The processes and procedures are ever- evolving, and while much of it is becoming routine, keeping all the balls in the air at once is challenging. The Drive Team and the Social Committee have been working overtime, and it shows. If you see any of the drive team or social committee members out and about, be sure give them a thumbs up and a smile – they deserve it!
This year ORPCA is celebrating 65 years and PCA is turning 70! The cars, the people, the clubs have a lot to celebrate. Back in 1955 and 1960, there were no 911s, no 914s, 944s, Boxsters, Caymans, Cayennes, Macans, Panameras or Taycans and very few variations on the models that did exist. There were a handful of regional clubs and not many members. Today there are 148 regions under the national umbrella with over 160,000 members participating in over 4,000 events every year.
In the area of Club history and how PCA and Porsche have evolved in 70 years, there are two great things every Porsche owner should check out if you haven’t already. One is the fantastic history of Porsche Club of America found on the PCA website: https://ww2.pca.org/pca- history (login to PCA.org, drop down the “Membership” tab to “PCA History” near the bottom.) This is a long read, but worth it. The other entertaining and education place to spend some time is PCA’s YouTube Channel: If you have not visited the PCA YouTube Channel, be forewarned, it is an addictive spot. https://www.youtube.com/@ PorscheClubofAmerica/featured
With nine more months of this exacting year ahead, I trust I will bump into many of you more than once and that alone makes it worthwhile. As you know, it’s not just the cars, it’s the people.
