When selecting your dinner, you will first choose the room where you’d like to be seated.
Room #1 , The Evergreen Room, features a dance floor and the DJ, offering a lively atmosphere for those who enjoy being in the heart of the action.
Room #2, The Snowfall Room, separated by a wall, provides a bit quieter setting with a projection screen showing the dance floor, DJ, and podium, with sound piped in for a more relaxed experience. And when you’re ready to step out onto the dance floor, it’s just around the corner!

Please choose one entree and one side salad per person. 

If you wish to dine with friends, ensure you all register for the same room as spaces are limited in each area. Regrettably we are unable to handle any reserved seating requests.


PARKING and ENTRANCE
Drive up and park with ease.   As a discerning Porsche owner, nothing is more comforting than knowing your automotive gem is in safe hands. At the holiday gala, we aren’t just providing you with a wonderful evening, PYC is providing secured on-site parking.  Gates and doors open at 5:45 pm.  We kindly ask for your cooperation, as arriving before 5:45 pm means you will need to wait outside until the gates and doors open.

HOTEL option near the PYC
If you’d like to avoid the longish drive home after the party, PYC recommends staying at the Marriott which is located just 4 minutes away (Courtyard by Marriott Portland North). You can access their special rate (typically 10-15% off) by going to www.marriott.com/pdxnh
Under Special Rates, you will click on Corp/Promo Code and enter the code: B8323

 

TOYS FOR TOTS
We will be collecting new, unwrapped toys at the door and through an online Amazon registry  for the Mar
ine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots charity.   Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots’ mission is to bring the joy of the season to less fortunate children by gathering and distributing new, unwrapped treasures that will light up children’s faces this holiday season. ORPCA has long supported the Marine Corp Reserve Toys for Tots and we’re thrilled to do so again this year.  Join us as we seek to foster a space that amplifies the season of giving and brings overwhelming joy for children in need. 

At the online registry (link below), you can select a toy for donation or donate money by purchasing a gift card. If choosing a gift card, please purchase before Thanksgiving, November 27, so we can shop the Thanksgiving weekend sales.   Our gift card donation goal is $1,000, but you can donate any amount you wish.  If choosing a toy from the list or adding one you prefer, the registry is closing on November 30th. (When checking out, toys must be delivered by Dec 5 in order to get them to the Marines at the Gala).

Laying the Groundwork for 2026 Events

October is one of my favorite months. I enjoy the warm, muted colors of autumn, the slanted rays of sunlight before the Pacific Northwest slips into its grey winter coat. For me, it’s also a time of reflection about the months that have passed and a welcome phase of routine before the winter holidays. Even though there is routine and less travel, planning for the coming year is in full swing. As you probably know, Q4 is when the Club starts laying the groundwork for events in the coming year.

Although the Board will meet and strategize and outline events for 2026, this is a member-led Club. I would like to solicit your input and feedback. Please drop me an email or give me a call with your thoughts about what worked this year, as well as what didn’t. The goal is improvement! What can we tweak, what can be improved? Your constructive criticism is welcome, but remember, we are all volunteers, so please be gentle.

The 65th Year of ORPCA has been great! There have been 58 drives so far, two perfect runnings of Northwest Passage, and two new multi-day tours (Snake & Bake and Scenic Oregon). Road and Fork, the smaller social gatherings at various ethnic restaurants, have been added and are very popular. We added more special interest drives in the summer, more ladies’ drives, a pride drive, and turned up en masse at more local cars and coffee events. In brief, we were out and about and seen in more places than ever.

We would like to keep the momentum going for 2026. In order to do that, volunteers are needed and welcome. If you have an idea for an event or would like to give a little time to the Club, please contact me. Being part of the backbone of an event is very satisfying. Organizing, helping and volunteering don’t always put you at the forefront, but rather allows you to see the benefit of your efforts through the smiles on others faces.

Let’s drive 2026 together! Contact me with your ideas and tweaks.
