Arrive & Drive

June 9, 2012

The second Saturday starting in May and extending into October ( no A&D in August ) each drive is roughly 60 to 100 miles in length and finishing in under three hours. Its a great way to kick off the weekend and a fun way for new members to get acquainted with ORPCA. To attend, bring your favorite Porsche ( with plenty of fuel ) and ideally, a navigator to Miller’s Homestead at 17933 SW McEwan Ave Tigard 97224 . 503.684.2831 no later than 8:45am. Driver’s meeting takes place at 9:00am , but many arrive early at 8:0am for a no-host breakfast. With an average of 40 to 50 cars, we often try to break into smaller groups rather than doing one long convoy. The first group of cars will depart at around 9:15am.  THIS IS A NO FEE EVENT

Covered Bridges Tour #3

August 25, 2012

Covered Bridges Tour #3

Join ORPCA members on one or two days of a weekend tour over 15 or more of the 50 covered bridges here in Oregon.  The routes will take you on some roads less traveled, through smaller valleys and glens where you may view and experience rural Oregon and nostalgic old ‘kissing’ covered bridges.

The majority of the tour will be over Lane County roads and by visiting covered bridges in the vicinity of Cottage Grove will open an opportunity to explore the roads that connect them.

The tour will be designed in such a way that participants will have the option of driving either Saturday or Sunday or both days.  The route is still being finalized. Saturday will start in the vicinity of Salem, 6 bridges and 212 miles later end up in Cottage Grove.

Sunday will take us past another 10 to 12 bridges and about 290 miles later will find you in the area of Tualatin.

Make plans to tour with us on either day or both days.

We are making arrangements for a group rate on lodging but each participant will be responsible for making their own reservations.
