“Ask me about a Free 1
Year Home Warranty”
A STEP BACK IN HISTORY! by John James On April 26th, over thirty OPR/PCA members assembled at Mickey D's in Gig Harbor to tour out to the LeMay Family Museum in Spanaway, WA. In 2014, we toured the Lemay--America's Car Museum in downtown Tacoma, but this year, we decided to travel to the home of the LeMay's to view the origin of what once was the largest automotive collection in the world.
Located in two locations, one in Spanaway and the other two miles away in Parkland, and run by Harold's widow Nancy and their son, Doug, both locations are jam-packed with not just cars and trucks, but fabulous memorabilia. From a full blown 50's soda fountain display, complete with mannequins, early T-birds and early Fords, to a salt shaker collection with 2,200 salt and pepper shakers. We were told by our guides, Mike and Doug, that one of the old cars Harold bought contained over a thousand salt and pepper shakers in the trunk, starting yet another collection!! 6
Our first stop was at the family home in Parkland which was the original collection site and houses hundreds of vehicles including a Packard collection, a Stutz fire truck, early brass era vehicles, Chrysler 300 letter series vehicles and several exotic 30's million dollar collectables. Want to visit what a 1930's general store looked like? Well, the Lemay's have one ready for viewing. Our next stop was to Godfather's Pizza where the food was great and so was the service with plenty of parking for our Porsches.
Last stop was to the LeMay's second location,
Marymount. Formerly a Catholic Military School run by
the Sisters of ST. Dominic.---HONEST---The LeMays have used every square foot of this 88 acre property to grow the collection and save a Spanaway Landmark.
The boy’s gym is now used for large gatherings such as weddings, car shows & collector car auctions, but still has 30's Chevrolets lining the upper seating areas! Even the boy’s showers contain vehicles!
The range of vehicles is expansive from an Indy car to a huge selection of 40's and 50's vehicles and another group of 20's and 30's classics, plus the obligatory gift shop. Did I mention the collection of US Military vehicles outside and the LeMay's next project? A 1930's railroad dining car!
If you have not been to visit the LeMay Family Collection, a trip to Spanaway and Parkland should be on your list of ten things to do before 2013 comes to a close. A special thanks goes to Trudy Coughchin, of the Museum staff for organizing OPR's visit to this, a fabulous treasure. My special thanks to all who attended. John James

Bremerton Armed Forces Day Parade 2014 by Maryann Elwell
I found out an interesting fact this year, did you know
that the Bremerton Armed Forces Day parade is our
nation's largest and longest-running Armed Forces
Day parade? On May 17th our club participated in the
66th annual parade through the streets of downtown
Bremerton. The parade is a tribute to our service
men and woman that put their lives on the line for us
every day and whose families make sacrifices, as well.
This year we had good weather, so we didn’t have to
worry about rain. We started at MAXRPM with coffee
and bagels with cream cheese. After everyone
finished eating and cleaning up their cars, it was time
to head over to Olympic College for staging. This year
we had about 8 Porsches in the parade, including one
car from PNWR driven by Veteran, Chris Wierman.
Other participants included Neil Green, Alex Raphael,
Brett Burroughs, Kip Sparber, Tony Adamaski, and
the Isars. Thanks for Neil Green for providing us with
patriotic bows and military and US flags to decorate
our cars.
Shortly after we arrived at the Olympic College
parking lot, we were told we needed to stage on Park
Ave. It took a while, but eventually everyone found
their way over and got parked across the street from
the Park where all the bands and equestrian units
were practicing and getting in line as their turn came
up to march. Since our OPR banner matched my car,
it was decided that I would display the banner and
lead our cars through the parade route.
This year we were in the last group, so had a longer
wait until it was time to join the parade. It gave
everyone time to talk and catch up while we waited
as well as hit the head.
Eventually, it was our time to depart and we made
our way through the parade route. The parade began
at 11th Street, proceeded down Park Ave. to Fourth
Street and turned left into the heart of downtown.
The long straight stretch spread out the crowd and
offered better sight lines for the spectators. It was
great to see the whole community lining the streets
in support of our Service Members and waving back
at us as we drove by. After we passed the judges and
VIP stands, it was back to MAXRPM.
We arrived back at the parking lot to find fellow
member Darwin Geary, who drove down from Port
Angeles, waiting for us to begin the BBQ. A few
minutes later, Debbie showed up with several bags of
food and Brett picked up some beverages to get the
party started. As the rest of us socialized, Brett and
Alex got the grill fired up and started cooking lunch.
We had a nice BBQ lunch thanks to Alex and Debbie
Raphael for hosting us at the shop and Brett
Burroughs for his assistance as well. I also want to
thank all of our members who participated in the
parade. I checked the Bremerton Chamber of
Commerce website, but we didn’t end up winning any
awards this year. Maybe next year.

In the Zone by Tim Hagner
It’s that time of year: Porsche Drive time. In all our
Regions the snows have melted, the roads are clean
and the Porsches are being driven. Starting in May
the events start coming at us every weekend and they
don’t slow down till October. I know that some of our
regions can drive all year. I’m jealous. Those regions
not along the Pacific Ocean aren’t as fortunate and
live with “Driving Seasons”; it’s better than
Christmas, so let the driving season begin. Oh, don’t
forget to apply for your insurance and sign the
waiver.
Lots of Zone 6 activities and news - First Big News,
Living Skies Prairie is now our 16th Region. There
was a Launch Party in Saskatoon on May 31st that I
was happy to attend. They have 41 charter members
and will grow rapidly thanks to an enthusiastic group
of Porsche People and the support of their local
Dealer, who was there in force to support the event. I
look forward to a return visit, flight, not drive; it’s
over 2,000 miles one way from my home in Bend!
We are a BIG Region!
Zone 6 at Parade in Monterey went very well. Thanks
to all of you that made it to the reception. To my old
eyes we had close to 300 Zone 6’ers out of the 360
that registered for Parade. I tried to say “Hi” to as
many as I could. Hope that you enjoyed it. Zone 6
took lots of awards and prizes home, too many to list
here, but one Zone 6 couple took home a new Targa.
Mark Titterton of Vancouver Island Region won the
PCA raffle this year and was presented the new
Porsche Targa at the Victory Banquet. He had no clue
until the end. A new Targa to go with the Targa he’s
been driving for the last 30 years! How cool is that?
Oh, he only bought one ticket. Guess I’ll start buying
them.
Here’s a “Shout out” to the Club Racers in our Zone
who are earning points in the West Coast PCA Club
Racing Series:
Phil Rochelle, Class C, currently in first place
and Chris Chamberlain, Class GTA, in second place.
Canada West and Pacific Northwest are hosting the
Whistler Weekend, August 22 – 24. This will be a
great Porsche event and get-a-way. I’m looking
forward to being there and seeing you there also!
The Zone 6 logo contest is still going on from now till
September 1st. There are lots of talented people in
our zone and I’m sure there will be no lack of great
ideas. I know this because I’ve received 11 logos
already! The winning logo will be announced on
September 15th. Send your logo submission to your
regional President and they’ll past it on to me. The
Zone 6 website has all your entries and can be
viewed at www.zone6-pca.org. Hope to see you soon
and don’t forget: it really is about the people.

Porsche Parade 2014 by Maryann & Bill Elwell
We can’t believe that the last day of Porsche Parade
2014 is already here. The week flew by with a
multitude of events for all tastes. We’re sitting in our
room after tonight’s Victory Banquet, the closing
event for this year’s Parade, knocking out this article
so that Brian can include it in the newsletter. But
let’s start from the beginning …
First, if you’ve never heard of the Porsche Parade,
shame on you! The Parade is an annual gathering of
Porsche club members from the US and Canada.
Activities include tours, Concours, autocross, rallies,
tech quizzes, and much, much more. This year
Parade was held in Monterey, CA from June 15th
through the 21st. There were 1200 attendees, the
biggest Parade ever. Estimates say that there were
over 500 Porsches at the event. While some flew in
and rented cars, others drove from as far away as
Alaska and Newfoundland. Now that you know what
it is, here’s a little about our experience this week.
Friday morning Maryann left Shelton, WA with three
other Porsches for the first day of the drive down to
Parade. Our destination on the first day was Gold
Beach, OR. Our group included Jon and Linda Wyman
in their black 911 Turbo, Alex Raphael in his white
911 Twin Turbo, Brett Burroughs in his Super-
charged silver 911 and Maryann in our speed yellow
911 C4. We headed out on Hwy 101 south. We took
a detour through Raymond where we met up with
PNWR member, Jim Sheppard, in his seal grey 911.
From there we got back onto Hwy. 101 south to
continue the rest of the way through Washington
State.
Before we knew it we were crossing the bridge into
Astoria. I didn’t realize how ornate all the bridges in
Oregon are. The Oregon bridges all had elaborate and
ornate stone carvings. After several hours of
invigorating driving through the twists and turns, we
finally made it to our lunch stop at the Joe’s Crab
Shack. The crab cocktail and crab burger were off the
hook delicious. We headed back onto the road for
Gold Beach and made really good time after our
11
coffee break in the cute little ocean side town of
Bandon, OR. We arrived at the Pacific Reef Resort by
around 6:30P. The Ocean View room Maryann had
was really nice with sliding glass doors out to a small
patio overlooking the Pacific Ocean. That night we
had dinner at a local place called Spinner's Seafood,
Steak & Chophouse. I think we all ordered seafood
and everyone raved about their dinners.
After a good night’s sleep, we had a quick breakfast at
the hotel’s restaurant and then split up. Jon, Linda,
Jim and Maryann continued our drive down to
Monterey for the parade, while Alex and Brett headed
back to Portland for the Rose Cup races. Maryann
was supposed to pick up Bill at the San Jose Airport at
around 3P. After going through several towns with
speed limits down to 25 miles per hour it became
apparent that she was running behind schedule.
Unfortunately, time was not on her side and she
didn’t reach the airport to get Bill until around 5:30P.
At least he had his laptop and was able to catch up on
e-mail while he waited. After leaving the San Jose
airport we reached our destination, the Hofsas House
Hotel in Carmel, CA, around 7P on Saturday night.
We arrived just in time to join John and Linda for
dinner downtown, on the outdoor patio of the Hog’s
Breath restaurant.
The big task on Sunday was to complete registration
for the week long Parade Event. Registration
included standing in lots of lines to collect up all the
bits and pieces we needed for the week. A big part of
Parade is volunteering to help out with the hundreds
and hundreds to tasks necessary to make the event a
success. Sunday afternoon, Bill helped the Concours
team setup the golf course for the Concours the
following day. Setup included placing roughly 240
flags, one for each car, at 15’ intervals along the 18th
fairway. While Bill volunteered, Mare washed two
days to road grime off the 911 at the wash rack.
Sunday night was supposed to be concluded with a
wonderful outdoor dinner in downtown Monterey.
Dinner happened as scheduled, but the wonderful
part is up for debate. Temperatures were rather
chilly, in the mid 50’s, with a pretty good breeze.
Before the buffet lines opened we talked it over with
Jon and Linda and decided to find a warmer place to
eat. A local British pub called the Crown and Anchor
served us a great dinner and, most importantly, we
were very warm.
Monday started with Bill working a volunteer shift at
the car wash station and Maryann helping park cars
at the remote parking site. After lunch we walked
through the cars on display for the Concours
competition. When you combine the cars in the
competition (nearly 240) with the cars that were on
display, there were over 300 of the most amazing
Porsches you’re ever likely to see.
That night there was a reception for anyone
attending Parade from one of the Zone 6 regions.
Yes, the Olympic Peninsula Region is part of Zone 6.
Following that was a Presidents banquet where Jon
and Linda represented our region.
Tuesday and Wednesday were light days for us.
12
We took in an ice cream social event. We had dinner
each night in Carmel, Tuesday at Grasing’s and
Wednesday at Cantinetta Luca. Carmel has an
amazing collection of great restaurants.
Things picked up again on Thursday with the
Gimmick Rally. In a Gimmick Rally you follow a set of
driving directions and answer questions about things
you saw during the drive. The driver/navigator team
with the most correct answers wins. We didn’t win a
trophy, but at least our score was in the middle of the
pack of entrants. Thursday’s dinner was at Bistro
Giovanni, another fine example of fine dining in
Carmel.
Friday was a long day for us. Our schedule included a
tour to the Hearst Castle. Driving to the Hearst Castle
from the Parade site takes about 2.5 hours each way.
Combine that with the time for the castle tour and
time to eat lunch and you can see why the driver’s
meeting was held at 6:30am. It is a fascinating place
to visit. If you didn’t know, the Hearst Castle was the
home of William Randolph Hearst, most known for
his newspaper publishing empire. For some it may
be difficult to comprehend living in a house with
nearly 70,000 sq. ft. of space and 38 bedrooms (not
including guest houses). Regardless, the design and
architecture is remarkable. Our favorite room was
the dining room. Anyone that has seen a Harry Potter
movie will instantly recognize the Hearst Castle

dining room as the inspiration for the dining hall at
Hogwarts Castle. Our trip included a stop at a beach
near the Castle where elephant seals spend their
days. We managed to get back to our hotel room by
about 4:30pm which gave us just enough time to get
washed up and head out to dinner at Casanova’s, also
in Carmel. Casanova’s was, by far, our favorite dinner
of the week. If you’re ever near Carmel, you might
want to check them out.
This brings us to Saturday, the last day of the Parade.
At 7:30am we had a driver’s meeting for a tour to
Scotts Valley to visit the Canapa facilities. Bruce
Canapa is the founder and CEO of Canapa Designs,
Canapa Motorsports, and Concept Transporters. The
Scotts Valley facility houses all three companies plus
the Canapa Motorsports Museum.
We were given tours of three facilities there in Scotts
Valley. The Motorsports is a full service automotive
restoration and fabrication company. We saw
projects in progress including Porsche 356’s, a
Porsche 959, Ferrari Daytonas, Lamborghinis, and
race cars of all types. From there we moved to the
showroom to see the cars for sale. There were more
Porsche’s on the showroom floor than any other
marque. Yes, there was a 959 for sale. Most of these
cars had received hundreds of hours of restoration.
The final stop in our tour was the Motorsports
Museum. Here we saw a collection of race cars and
motorcycles that ranged from notable race cars from
the 60’s through to a Porsche RS Spyder, LeMans
Prototype (class 2). We could spend a few pages just
to scratch the surface of the Canapa tour. A
paragraph hardly does it justice. After leaving there,
our group was given a special treat. We drove to
Laguna Seca Raceway where we were given parade
laps of the track. What more can we say? What a
day!
The Victory Banquet was the closing event. After a
great meal, awards were given for the tech quiz event
and the 5k Run. Awards were given to regions with
significant community service activities. Door prizes
were awarded and the 2015 Parade location of
French Lick, Indiana, was announced. The volunteers
that put this massive event were recognized. And
with a closing prayer, it was all over. The week went
by so quickly. We will simply close by saying that all
the people we met were absolutely wonderful and if
you have the opportunity to attend a future Porsche
Parade, by all means, do it. It’s a wonderful
experience.

Technology on the Road – Actuators, Solenoids, Wax Motors
and Shape Memory Alloy – Bill Elwell
When I learned about the use of a shape memory
alloy (SMA) material in an actuator on the new C7 Corvette, I thought it was a really cool use of technology that I had to write about. Hopefully you think it’s as cool as I do, though I guess you have to be a bit of a nerd to think this sort of thing is cool. So be it.
Before I talk about SMA materials and their applications, it’s appropriate to talk about actuators in general. An actuator is a type of motor that controls or moves some sort of mechanical device. When we talk about actuators in cars we typically think about devices that open and close flaps in the heat/cooling system, or that electrically lock the doors, or that electrically release the trunk or hood lid. But there are many other applications. The thermostats in our cooling systems are actuators. Mechanically retracting headlights like you find on a 944 or 928 are driven by actuators. Finally, I have to warn you that the following discussion really should have illustrations to make it easier to visualize. Space and time didn’t allow me to include pictures, so you’ll have to visualize it all in your head or do some Google searches to see pictures online.
A type of actuator found in the heating systems of
older cars is a vacuum actuator. They are simple devices that use a diaphragm, a spring, and the vacuum from the engine intake to move little doors and flappers. When there is no vacuum present, a spring holds a plunger in its resting position. When vacuum is applied, a pressure differential is created across a rubber diaphragm which, depending on the design, either extends or retracts the plunger. Typically we’re talking about plunger motion of an inch or less. While these devices are simple, the diaphragms can crack with age. Vacuum hoses crack with age. Engine repairs or modifications can compromise the vacuum system. Any one of these issues can render all the vacuum actuators in a car inoperative.
Another type of actuator frequently found in cars
is the linear solenoid. In its simplest form, a solenoid is a coil of wire with a steel or iron shaft that can move in and out of the center of the coil. A spring holds the plunger in its resting position. When electric current is applied to the coil, a magnetic field
18
is created that, depending on the design, pulls in or pushes out the steel shaft. Almost every one of us has at least one car with a hatch that can be electrically released. You press a button on the dash or on your key fob and you hear a click and the hatch, hood, or trunk lid pops open. That’s a linear solenoid in action. Engineers use these all over our cars today. They are simple and reliable. The downside to linear solenoids is that they are heavier than some other design options, they make an audible click when they operate, and their size and shape limits where you can place them.
If you have a newer 911 with electric releases for
the trunk and engine compartments, you could experience one of the downsides to solenoids. There is no easily accessible manual hatch release. If the battery dies, you can’t open the trunk or engine compartment to jump start the car. Do you know how to open the trunk or engine compartments if the battery is dead? I wrote an article about this issue a few years back. Your owner’s manual will tell you how to do it if you didn’t read my article.
One question that must be on your mind is, “what
in the heck is a wax motor?” It’s actually pretty simple. A wax motor is a linear actuator that is driven by the expansion and contraction of a wax slug as it is heated and cooled. Various types of waxes will expand in volume from 5% to 20% when heated to their liquid form. The operation principle should be pretty familiar by this point. Start with a wax slug in a container with a movable plunger at one end. A spring holds the plunger in its resting state. If heat is applied and the wax melts, the plunger will, depending on the design, extend or retract. Remove the heat and the spring will return the motor to its resting state as the wax solidifies. If you have a front load washing machine, there’s a good chance that a wax motor (that uses electricity to melt the wax) operates the door lock mechanism. If you drive a vehicle with a water cooled engine, the thermostat that regulates the flow of coolant in the engines is a clever application of a wax motor. As the engine heats up, the wax in the thermostat melts and opens the thermostat to allow coolant to flow. As the engine cools, the wax will start to harden and shrink closing the thermostat. Waxes with various melting temperatures are used to create thermostats that
operate at different temperatures. Wax motors operate very slowly so their application is pretty limited.
Now we can finally talk about SMA’s. An SMA is a
metal that has “memory”. Let’s use an example to illustrate how SMAs work. Imagine a wire made of SMA material is formed or “trained” into the shape of a tightly coiled spring. At room temperature we can twist, stretch, and contort the spring very easily and it will retain the new shape. Now we apply heat to the wire. Once the wire reaches its transition temperature it will return to its original shape of a tightly coiled spring.
Let’s talk about an actual application. Let’s say
that we want move a lever to open and close a flapper that regulates airflow. To open and close the flapper, we need to move the lever arm about an inch. We’ll use a spring, a piece of SMA trained into the shape of a tightly coiled spring about an inch long, and an electronic controller that applies an electric current across the SMA to heat it up. Just like all the other actuators, the spring will be used to hold the lever arm in its resting position which, in our example holds the flapper closed. The SMA coil will be installed to oppose the force of the spring holding the
flapper closed. In its resting state, the spring holds the flapper closed and stretches the SMA coil so it is now two inches long. When we want to open the flapper, the electronic controller applies an electric current to the wire, heating it up. This triggers the SMA to “remember” its original shape which is a one inch long tightly coiled spring. SMA contracts, pulling the lever arm and opening the flapper. When the electric current is removed, the SMA cools and begins to stretch, allowing the spring to close the flapper again. It’s a simple and elegant design.
Compared to an electric solenoid, an SMA
actuator is very light and it can designed fit into spaces where an electric actuator won’t fit. And where an electric solenoid makes an audible click, the SMA actuator is silent. An SMA actuator doesn’t move nearly as quickly as a solenoid and it can’t apply as much force compared to a similarly sized electric solenoid. So SMA devices can only be used in specific applications.

BOARD MEMBER AND CHAIR REPORTS
President: Jon Wyman: There will be a Zone 6 Party Parade at the Hyatt on the Garden Terrace from 4:30-6P on June 14th. It
will be just prior to the official Parade Welcome reception. There are 180 people attending Parade from Zone 6, 23 from our
region. The plan approved by the Zone 6 Presidents is to split the food bill between each region on a prorated basis of
members attending Parade. It is estimated to cost us $6.50 per person for the food with no host bar. Jon motioned for board to
contribute roughly $150 for our region’s portion of the food bill. John James made a motion and Maryann Elwell seconded it.
The motion passed with all in favor. The group dive down to Parade will depart on Friday morning of June 13th with an
overnight stay in Gold Beach, OR. Jon got us a discounted group rate with a breakfast voucher at the Reef Inn for oceanfront
rooms at $89 and standard rooms for $69 plus tax.
Secretary: Amy Bonfrisco: Not present.
Vice President: Pete Bonfrisco: Not present.
Treasurer: Maryann Elwell: Beginning balance: $9,520.36; Ending balance: $9,478.42, Deposits: $293.44 and payments of

Advertising Chair: Pete Bonfrisco: Nothing to report, as not present.
Membership Chair: Jon Wyman reporting for Kip Sparber who was not present: the total count of members is 245, and two
new members recently joined including: Robin Schofield and Byron DeCamp. Jon reported that as of March he stopped
receiving the membership reports, so had to ask for them from PCA National. It looks like with the new website, all
membership reports will be on demand, hence Kip Sparber as our Membership Chair will need to download them and
distribute to Jon Wyman and Maryann Elwell each month.
Past President: Brian Forde: Nothing to report, as not present.
Newsletter Editor: Jon Wyman reported for Brian Forde. He wants to thank Debbie Raphael & Maryann Elwell for getting our
May newsletters out. Also thanks to those who provided articles and photos. He is asking for photos and articles by June 15 th
for the July Nor-Wester edition.
Website: Maryann Elwell reported that the website is up to date through June 2014, with at least place holders per Pete
Bonfrisco’s request. Pete Fischer is working on details for the June and July calendar events.
Member at Large: John James. For those not racing or going to parade, Jun 12th-15th is the MECUM car show & auction at the
Seattle Exhibition Hall. Also the Lucky Auction at the LeMay Family Museum is May 30th-31st. John reported there was a good
turn out for the LeMay Family Tour in April and no one got lost.

Social Chair: Pete Fischer: Pete provided a summary of upcoming events for May and June 2014. May 24th is the Sunday drive
starting in Port Orchard. 11 RSVPs so far for the May 30th dinner at the Boatshed in Bremerton. The Bremerton Armed Forces
Parade is scheduled for May 17, 2014 and we have about 6 cars so far, but would like to have more. The Pacific NW Historic
Races will be held from July 4 – 6th and payment for car corral and tickets must be received by 5/31/14, since we need to order
them as a group in early June. Debbie Raphael will book the June 11th Dinner/Meeting at the Club House Restaurant at
McCormick Woods. The Dinner/Meeting for July will 12th be in Port Townsend, then Brian’s Sunday drive will be July 20th. Pete
is planning a drive to the social dinner at the Selah Inn on Aug 9th. We are looking to have all 4 rooms booked (2 so far) plus 10
couples for dinner to get the BYOB deal. Please see our website, www.opr-pca.org for more details.
Technical/Speed: Alex Raphael: He just finished working on a 2014 Turbo S in the shop bringing to over 600 horsepower, if
anyone wants to stop by MAXRPM and see it. The Rose Cup in Portland is June 13th-15th: On Friday June 13th some members
are driving down with the parade group to the overnight stop in Gold Beach, OR. Then on Saturday they are stopping at the
Rose Cup races in Portland on the way home. If interested contact Alex Raphael or Brett Burroughs for more information.
OLD BUSINESS: Maryann inquired about reserving a location for this years’ upcoming Christmas party. Maryann researched
the Inn at Gig Harbor and they are available only on Sat. Dec 6th. Debbie researched the Oxford Suites and Beach Hotel in
Silverdale and both have our date of Dec 13th available. Members also requested we consider going back to the Manresa
Castle, and the catering person told Maryann they would hold Dec. 13th date for us tentatively. Alex Raphael asked if we
should consider the Alderbrook again, now that those who had a problem with the cost are no longer OPR members. Pete
Fischer and Susan Smith mentioned as the winter season approaches they usually drop their rates and offer specials closer to
dates they are not full. Not sure what they give us up from as a group rate ahead of time if we had our Party there. Discussion
at the meeting led to taking the Oxford Suties and Beach Hotel in Silverdale off the prospective list. Debbie Raphael will
research availability and meal and room pricing for Alderbrook, so we can vote at the June meeting in order to book the place
and provide our deposit to hold the date for us.
Goody Store: Neil Green. Neil thanked John James for wonderful tour at LeMay family museum. Neil recommended we may
want to just keep the existing club logo for some items, especially those we already have made. He still thinks we could use a
new logo for clothing and other things. Cost of about $100 to have the digitized program set up. We might even want to do one
for men and women. We need to decide if we want to go with something new and set up a committee. Neil presented several
drafted options for the club to think about at the meeting. Recommended that we show at future meetings to get more input,
before making a final decision.
NEW BUSINESS: Debbie talked to a person at McCormick Woods and they will allow us to come try it out next month to see
how we like it. We’ll be on the other side of the main restaurant. They would like us to have 20 people. She could book for us
for June 11th. Maryann motioned to try it for the June 11th meeting. Jon Wyman seconded, and all were in favor.
Meeting adjourned at 7:55 p.m. with a motion made by Maryann Elwell, with Brett seconding the motion and all in favor.
Respectfully submitted:
Maryann Elwell for Amy Bonfrisco, Secretary
The next board meeting and member dinner will be on Wednesday, June 11, 2014, at Club House Restaurant at McCormick
Woods with dinner at 6:00 p.m. followed by the meeting at 7:00 p.m.

SOVERN Strikes Again by Brian Forde
The 26TH Annual Pacific Northwest vintage car races were held at Pacific Raceways over the Fourth of July
weekend. The Society of Vintage Racing Enthusiasts, known as SOVERN, is the organization that makes this annual
summertime treat possible. The cars and the people are amazing and I love how participants and spectators have a
chance to share in the experience of vintage racing.
Our own OPR members were out in force adding our own Porsche flavor to the car corral and enjoying the thrill of
parade laps during the mid-day break. This year was the 50th year of the Mustang and legendary Parnelli Jones was
on hand to sign autographs and greet fans. This event is a spectacle of colors, sights and sounds and should be
marked on your calendar every year to be shared by kids of all ages.

From the President by Jon Wyman
Linda and I have just returned from Porsche Parade in Monetrey, CA, which was held June 15th - 21st. This
was our first Parade and we certainly picked a good one to attend! This Parade had the highest attendance
of any Parade PCA has ever had. There were approximately 1200 cars registered, and 2400 people in
attendance. We drove down with Alex Raphael, Brett Burroughs, Maryann Elwell and Jim Shepard from
PNWR. Brett and Alex drove down half way with us and then returned to Washington, stopping in Portland
to attend the Rose Cup Races. The second day Maryann, Jim, and Linda and I drove on the rest of the way.
While at Parade we participated in several events, including the opening reception in downtown Monterey,
the Concours Awards Banquet, the Presidents' Reception, a tour to Hearst Castle, and the Gimmick
Rally. All were fun events. The Concours D'Elegance, held on Monday, June 16th, was an amazing array of
Porsches from early to current models. There was a special display of race and specialty Porsches that are
part of the legend of Porsche, including a 917, a 917-30, a 962C, a GT1, a 1951 Pre-A Coupe, and a 959. This
really highlighted for me how racing has shaped Porsche's image and development as a brand. I have to say
"Congratulations" to Dan Kalinski for winning his class in the preservation category at the Concous. If
you ever want to participate in a concours Dan would be an excellent person to ask!
The tour to Hearst Castle was well run and included some spectacular scenery. We first went down the
central valley then transited over to the coast. On the way back to Monterey we drove on Highway 1. That
is some of the most spectacular scenery and fun roads on earth. I had always wanted to drive on Highway 1
in a Porsche and I can now check that off my bucket list.
The Gimmick Rally was also a fun event and included two loops. One was a coastal route that included the
famous 17 Mile Drive and Pebble Beach Golf Course. The other was through the rich farm land of the
Salinas Valley and Castroville. We actually did that rally with Bill and Maryann Elwell. Our scoring on the
rally landed us in the middle of the pack--not too bad for our first rally.
The receptions were fun, and, the only noteworthy thing that happened was that I shook hands with Hans
Peter Porsche, who was attending as a representative of the Porsche family.
All-in-all it was really fun to attend our first Porsche Parade. We met some great people along the way and
we now have a better understanding of the PCA tag line: It's not just the cars, it's the people.
