Tuesday 6/10/25, 6-8pm

Again, this year, Porsche Beaverton is providing their wonderful, hosted reception for all NW Passage attendees on Tuesday, June 10th from 6 – 8pm.

The reception will be at the beautiful Porsche Studio Portland, the first Porsche Studio in the United States, which is designed to inspire the Porsche brand lifestyle. The contemporary, boutique-like facility features a 12,920 sq-ft studio space over two floors.

The address is 1432 NW Johnson St, Portland. Porsche Beaverton is also providing secure, guarded, enclosed parking on Johnson Street directly across from the Studio in the old REI parking garage.

If this is your first time attending the tour, this short orientation meeting will give you an introduction to the nature of the NW Passage.

The drive has more miles per day than  the half-day drives ORPCA is offering. There will be groups of cars driving spirited, and other groups driving more leisurely. It is important to understand the driving directions in the tour book for navigating the route.

We are supporting the Digital Navigation Apps RidewithGPS (both IOS and Android). The driving routes are preloaded and you can use the digital navigation to augment your navigation with the written driving directions. We will have cheat sheets available for the use of the app and will be helping with install and demo the use of the app.

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.
