Registration closes Sept. 17. Take action now!

Our region has been celebrating the 50th anniversary of its charter as a region in the Porsche Club of America. A fitting end to the year-long calendar of special events that marked this milestone is the Everything Porsche banquet on Sept. 25 at the Wisconsin Country Club, 6200 W. Good Hope Road, on Milwaukee's northwest side.

We'll park our Porsches in a beautiful display in the parking area and then proceed into the club where we will enjoy cocktails (cash bar) and complimentary appetizers, followed by a sit-down, multi-course dinner. A silent auction will add some excitement in the background as we mix and mingle. Proceeds from the auction will go to the Susan G. Komen Find a Cure Foundation to support breast cancer research.

As we finish dessert, we will begin the evening's entertaining program and will hear from:

-- Don Kiepert, Milwaukee region president
-- Caren Cooper, national secretary, Porsche Club of America
-- Gene Bussian, PCA charter member and founding member of the PCA Chicago/Milwaukee region
-- Burt Levy, author, race driver, all-around car guy and featured speaker. Read more about Mr. Levy here.

Everyone is invited and encouraged to join us for this event. Bring your spouse, a guest or attend solo. Formal attire is not required. Some will be in formal attire but others will be in less formal wear.

If you plan to park your Porsche in our special display, please plan to arrive by 5:45 p.m.
