  2009 Message from the Hurricane Region President

Welcome to the Web Site for the Hurrricane Region of the Porsche Club of America. The idea behind PCA being divided into Regions is to make activities more accessible to members. As such, we have two major locales with regular activities — the Raleigh/Durham/Cary/Chapel Hill area where most of our members reside, and the Coastal area in and around Wilmington, NC that also has regular monthly get-togethers. All PCA members are welcome to join us at our events regardless of region or locale.

When you check our Calendar Page, you will see that we offer a wide variety of activities throughout the year. Whether your interests are social (weekly Koffee Klatches, Winery Tours, Oktoberfest, Lighthouse Cruises, BBQ Runs, etc.), gaining knowledge about the mechanics of your car (Tech Sessions), learning how to get the most out of your Porsche's performance (Autocrosses and Drivers Education), or just showing your Porsche off (Councours d'Elegance and OktoberFest), we try to provide something for everyone.

Be sure to peruse this site. Our past and current Newsletters let you know what we've been up to, while the Calendar Page lets you know what we have planned along with maps and registration forms (if applicable). The Photo Page has contributions from our members and lets you see what we've done, while various other pages include information and details about the events themselves.

So no matter what model or vintage your Porsche is, please join us to find out how true the PCA slogan is, "It's not just the cars; it's the people."

Who We Are

Mid-Summer "BBQ" Run
Mid-Summer "BBQ" Run
Hurricane Region, PCA (HUR, PCA) is part of Zone 3 and covers the Eastern half of North Carolina, from the Triangle Area (Raleigh / Durham / Chapel Hill) to the coast, and south into Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. As of October 1, 2009, we have 457 members. Our bi-monthly newsletter is published here online, and we hold monthly meetings both in the Raleigh and Wilmington areas. It is easy to join our region (and PCA) by contacting our Membership Chair, Fred Grossfeld.

"It's not just the cars..."

We have many people in the club, particularly spouses and significant others, who would like to join us. Great! Just because you may not be car crazy doesn't mean you can't have a lot of fun at our events. Even bring the kids to some of the festivities. They will enjoy themselves. After all, this really should be a family affair! In fact, if you'll look to the right, you'll see a photograph made by one of our younger kids, Joshua Winston!

In addition, some people have dedicated track cars, negating the possibility of bringing their precious Porsches to this or that non-track event. That's fine. Bring your tow vehicle, your little gas miser, or even your gas guz (cringe) if that's all that's available, and enjoy the company of a great group of people.

DE @ Rockingham
Don't laugh; volunteering is one of the best ways to meet and get to know fellow Porschephiles. Volunteering need not be a major commitment. Perhaps you could help with registration at an event. Being part of a team effort in setting up refreshments may be your forte. You might enjoy laying out cones to produce a challenging course for Autocross. Whatever it may be, we can always use more help and lighten the load on everyone. As William Penn wrote centuries ago, "...many hands make light work..."

Don't be shy. Contact any board member found on the Membership page, and he/she will be happy to chat with you.
