Concours Update

Here's Hoping the deluge of rain this spring is coming to an end and we are going to enjoy more favorable weather going forward. The remainder of June and July promise to be busy months for those who are inclined to out the Speedshine ans spiff up our rides.

Review the schedule to the left and pick the events that you can attend.

Just a friendly reminder to send your photo and car show story to me at porscheconcours@aol.com I'm keeping track of our club's participation in any show related event. A trophy will awarded at our annual dinner meeting recognizing the club member who has attended the most shows. I'm hoping to post our first list of "standing" in the next Bent Pylon.

Keep the Speedshine handy!

Getting Started

Join the Concours Community of Interest

My goal, as Concours Chairman, is to create an informal community of like minded – consenting – individuals who enjoy the mix of fellowship and gentle competition that come about when you mix a group of shiny Porsches, their proud owners, ample supplies of Speed Shine and a conducive setting.

Pick an Event

The calendar at the right is current as of the date posted and reflects a broad assortment of Concours, Show n Shines and Clean Car related events and “field trips”. Over the years I have attended or participated in most of these events and can vouch for the fact that they are all “foreign car friendly”. I would encourage you to join me and your fellow lug nut polishers at one of these events. If we get enough interest around any particular event, I would be happy to organize a meeting point from which we could caravan to the event. Just let me know if you’re interested.

Participation Award

Ohio Valley Porsche Club Concours Event Your board has generously agreed to establish an award to recognize the member who participates in the most concours events during 2011. No need to win an award, you just need to show up. The rules are very simple. Just send me a picture of your car and a brief write up sharing your experience. I’ll tabulate the results and will post them monthly in the Bent Pylon. He , or she, who shows the most, wins!
