Greetings and salutations,

As 2025 comes to a close, we’d like to thank every ARPCA member for making this year one to remember. From scenic drives and social gatherings to Laps at Mid-Ohio, Pitt Race, and Watkins Glen. Our shared passion for Porsche continues to bring this club together. Your enthusiasm, company, and participation are what make ARPCA such a special community.

As we look ahead to a new year filled with exciting events and opportunities, we’re pleased to share some important announcements and a preview of what’s coming up. See details below the ARPCA Women, Porsche Touring Crew, and the monthly meetings are already on the calendar through March.  Not to forget the All Member Dinner in April and our intrepid Tourmeister already has details for this May’s Der Treff.

As we close out the year, we’re excited for what lies ahead and grateful for the friendships and memories we continue to create together. Wishing you and your families a wonderful holiday season and a Happy New Year filled with great drives and even better company.

See you out there,

Shawn Cressler – Web Support. Sharon Lunney – Newsletter Editor.
