From the Pole<br />
by Ted Myrus, President<br />
Exceptional is how I’d describe the 2006 Annual<br />
<strong>Installation</strong> and Charity <strong>Banquet</strong>. Margi Knight and<br />
Kathy Alnwick chose the Marriott Hotel-Gaslamp<br />
Quarter with its stunning view <strong>of</strong> the setting sun over<br />
<strong>San</strong> Diego Bay with Petco Park and the Convention<br />
Center in the foreground. An affirmation <strong>of</strong> why we<br />
live in <strong>San</strong> Diego. The night’s program was fast-paced,<br />
succinct, and well-received. Over 180 <strong>of</strong> us were in<br />
attendance enjoying excellent food and <strong>Porsche</strong> friends.<br />
The silent auction, a crowd favorite, had 50 items<br />
kicking <strong>of</strong>f our 50 th year and raising over $9,000. The<br />
live auction raised $3,900. Thanks go to Keith Verlaque<br />
for a fantastic job <strong>of</strong> auctioneering and entertaining.<br />
Proceeds went to Alta Vista Academy and Rady<br />
Children’s Hospital. Pioneer Centres’ General Manager,<br />
Mark Smith, presented a check in the amount <strong>of</strong><br />
$59,000 to Rady Children’s Hospital representative<br />
Carol Damon-Scherer. Pioneer donated $100 for every<br />
<strong>Porsche</strong> sold in 2006.<br />
Credit for this year’s auction success goes to Katina<br />
Gonzalez, and her sisters Marysol, Lorena, and Crystal.<br />
Thanks also go to Denise Dente, Bob McLaughlin,<br />
Martha McGowan, Christy Copeman, and Tami<br />
Ibbetson. A job well done!<br />
The driving schedule for January and February was<br />
disrupted as a result <strong>of</strong> the Chargers’ success. This<br />
impacted planning for other events as well, but we’re<br />
getting it sorted out. As you read this, we will have had<br />
a TT at Willow Springs on February 3-4 and a Board<br />
meeting at the Harris home on February 7. Saturday<br />
February 17 there is a Parade meeting and a Valentine’s<br />
Party that evening…..an event not to be missed.<br />
Wednesday February 21 is a special Tech Session dealing<br />
with important aspects <strong>of</strong> the Parade. Rounding out the<br />
month is a Last Tuesday Social on the 27 th .<br />
We need a volunteer(s) for the Goodie Store. Can<br />
you help?<br />
