Mavs & Mochas: Founders’ Day Edition
It was a dark and stormy night –
the night before, that is -- but Saturday
morning was glorious, as evidenced
by a more than awesome turnout.
The official count was over 200 cars,
with about every vintage and color
of Porsche lined up and polished to a
fine shine.
The Mavs & Mochas gathering
kicked off the day-long trilogy
of Maverick Region’s birthday
celebration events with a bang. Couple
this with the exceptional participation
of Nordstrom knocking it out
of the park with their staff,
led by Vanessa Hernandez, and it
just couldn’t have been any better.
Non-stop coffee, fixins, and pastries
kept the PCA faithful happy and full.
Plus the fact that we had the run of
the store to shop and browse was an
exceptional privilege offered to the
PCA members.
The People’s Choice Awards
judging garnered a broad crowd
participation spurring all kinds of
conversation about this and that. The
trivia being bantered about covered
all aspects of the varied Porsche cars
in attendance, which is what it’s all
about. So much fun! The outcome
of the judging was announced at the
final leg of this day at the dinner and
gathering at Porsche Grapevine, but
that’s another story!!
Then at the end the M&M it
was off to line up for the Toy Drive!
Eighty or so cars headed off to start
the second leg of the Maverick
celebration. Cars were stuffed with
toys to the roof or roll bar. What a
great Porsche-filled day it was going
to be!! – Pat Carmichael
