California Central Coast Porsche Club Of America April 2007
Santa Barbara Region Presents
The 2007 Santa Barbara 1000 Charity Tour – Pre San Diego Parade
Prior to the 2006 PCA Parade in Portland, OR, the SBR presented a fun rally/tour that included two overnight
stops enroute to the Parade. Following a pre-determined rural route, entrants stopped at various super markets
along the way to purchase a minimum of two cans of food at each stop. The cash register receipts served as
check-point time slips. Support vehicles were stationed along the route to take the cans of food and make more
available space in the cars. Some 30 Porsches participated and almost 1000 pounds of food were donated to the
local PCA Region’s favorite Police Charity in Portland.
Entrants from several Zone 8 Regions participated. The route was great fun and very scenic. The evenings
spent together after each day’s run provided plenty of time for socializing and great food. For 2007, SBR is going
to do it again. The start will be Thursday night, June 28th in Solvang and proceed to the Palm Springs area
for the night of June 29th. The charity fun run will arrive at the PCA Parade in San Diego on Saturday, June
30th. Sue and I had an absolute ball on the 2006 event and are looking forward to the 2007 edition. It’s a great
way to attend Parade. Details can be found on the SBR website (www.pcasb.org) or by contacting David Stone
at (805) 389-8999.
C’mon and join in the fun for a very worthy cause.
