In The Zone January 2025

Hello Zone 7,

Who else is ready for an event packed year?

This month’s column brings news and announcements.

I am thrilled to have been asked to serve a 2 nd term as your Zone Representative.

The Zone Rep is a liaison between PCA National and the Regions. I am lucky to be the PCA National team face that you will see at your local events. The position is appointed by the National Executive Council and reports to the National President. I am here to work with Regions to bring tools,
resources, support and insight. To be a part of the 10 Regions of Zone 7 is truly an honor. Your Regions have held their annual elections, and I welcome those new to each Board and Chair positions, know I pledge my ongoing commitment support you, your team and Region.

Zone 7 Autocross / Concours and Non-Competitive Awards Function will be held Sunday, March 9th @ Porsche Sacramento. I will post info and registration info soon.

The 2025 Zone 7 Autocross Series schedule is updated below!

9 events, hosted by 5 different regions, at 4 locations. There is a class for everyone & every car.
Come on out and join us. Full details on the series can be found at the Zone 7 Website zone7.pca.org

The 2025 Concours series will publish their calendar as we put info together. Including the Judges class & Training. Our Concours events are NOT white glove persnickety at all. Always a FUN time with great cars & awesome people. We have a class for every car in every level of preparation.

A BIG date for 2025 is PCAs 70 th Anniversary on Saturday, September 13 th. Look for lots of iinformation and news about this from PCA National and your local Region.

Looking forward to seeing you at an event in 2025
Brian

Please let me know if your Region has an event that is open to other Regions / needs broader participation reach. I am happy to share that information.
