Hi Chesapeake Members

This month we celebrate the oldest annual event in PCA history, the Chesapeake Challenge.  This year’s event is being held at the Maryland Yacht Club.  Our theme for the 41st Chesapeake Challenge is “Porsches by the bay”.  Over 50 Porches have been registered for the event and will be on display in either the Concours or People’s Choice car show.  Hope to see you there.

The end of October brings us the ever popular “Friendly Farm Tour”.  Nothing brings out Porsche owners more like a fun drive and good food.  Al Gunzelman is mapping out a leisurely route to the Friendly Farm Restaurant.  Put this one on your calendar.

Is your Porsche ready for the upcoming winter weather or will your car spend the winter hibernating in the garage?  My 85 911 gets pulled off the road at the first sign of salt.  Preparation includes a trickle charger for the battery, oil and filter change and full tank of gas with a gas stabilizer additive. What will you do for your Porsche?  Drop me an email and I will forward your response to our Patter Editors for publication in a future edition.

Have you been to one of our “Get Together” events arranged by our Social Chairman Steve Condax?  Steve has given our socials a new twist by moving the events all around the region and at different days of the week and weekends.  Steve also coordinates the Octane and Coffee events, which keeps him very busy.  Check the monthly calendar in the Patter or on the web for the latest social event times.

I look forward to seeing you at one or all of the events this month.
