Hey Guys and Gals,
29 Register members and their guests attended our Private 968
Gathering Dinner at the Holiday Inn Friday night.
25 968 Register members brought their 968 Coupes & Cabriolets and guests from; CT (Paul & Kim Anthony, Jeff & Greg Coe & Robert Earle); MD (Kathy Downs & John Stangle & Lori Pino); MI (Richard & Doreen McGuire); NJ (Raj Datta, Jim Groelinger & Steve Zarodnansky); NY (Ginger & Charlie Sagau; Bob & Robert Schmidt); NC (Ralph Moore & Kevin Heimbaugh); PA (Craig Adams, Dave Erdman, Lorna Frick, Don Hassenbein, Stew Hatchell, Don Hendrickson, Jay Kraviz & Frank & Pam Novak); VA (Ron Cannizzaro, Rick Kellogg, Bill & Mark McCullough, Darryl & Christine Nichols & Gary Schepker). 18 cars were in our 968 Caravan Saturday morning and the other 7 cars met us at the Swap Meet.- 4 968 Register members attended but did not bring their cars; CA (Bob Larson), PA (Pete Fitzpatrick, Andy & Debbie Nuttall)
3 Guests from our sister club Porsche Club 968 Deutschland (www.porsche-club-968-deutschland.de) attended w/o their 968s (Hajo Glahe, Bernhard Gryschek & Ekkehard Zentgraf). They brought a copy of the new "Bible" Book published for the 968, very comprehensive per our Historian, Jeff Coe.
Everyone seemed to find rare 968 items at the Swap Meet again (I picked up a rare Hasegawa Model kit and Minichamps red 968 CS diecast).
Pete Fitzpatrick presented a comprehensive Tech Session on maintenance of the 968 and info on the Firehawk line in my garage after the Swap Meet.
The weather was beautiful both Friday and Saturday (we had a few members cancel their trip because rain was forecast) and we had a great event.

Thanks to Paul Anthony (CT) for providing these memories of the 2008 968
Gathering in Hershey!
968 CELEBRATION ON SEPTEMBER 18-20 IN ALBUQUERQUE, NM AT THE PCA ESCAPE
We almost had to cancel our 968 Celebration in Albuquerque since both of our co-hosts (Bob Blackwell and Chris Lennon) were unable to coordinate due to personal and business reasons. Fortunately, Dan Dennison has agreed to take over the role of local host and is working closely with Doug Brosveen, Escape Coordinator, to ensure that we have another successful 968 Celebration! You can access the PCA Escape website at http://escape.pca.org Our plan is to have a concurrent 968 Celebration during the Escape event which means that your optimum enjoyment will occur if you sign up for Escape and check off the 968 Celebration buffet dinner on Friday night (we will be giving out 968 Celebration awards after our buffet dinner Friday night at the hotel).The website has lots of info about the various Escape tours and activities planned. This will be our first time that we have had our 968 Celebration concurrently wit h a PCA National Event and I look forward to everyone having a great time. Our current plan is for Dan and I to greet all the 968 Register members at the hotel on Thursday, September 18 starting around 2pm when they register. There will be a separate parking area where we will hold our 968 Celebration wash-n-shine later that day and distribute Tech Quizzes (more details will be provided as we get closer).
I strongly recommend that you sign up for Escape, once the Registration is offered. Please put "968 Celebration" in parenthesis behind your name so that we know you are a 968 Register member. My wife Elke, and I, look forward to having the first 968 Celebration in Albuquerque. This location should provide incentive for our Midwest and West Coast 968 Register members to participate in a 968 Celebration and meet many 968 Register members that they may only know from the Internet or via past Celebrations.
Look forward to seeing all of you at one or the other of these 968 events!
