To all Porsche Enthusiasts!

It is time to celebrate the birthday of our founder, Ferdinand (Ferry) Porsche by getting out and driving our Porsches in a manner he designed them to be driven!

As we are now / still in COVID Level 2 - We can hold our annual "Drive Your Porsche Day" (DYPD) which is this Sunday the 19th September - to celebrate / remember Ferdinand Anton Ernst Porsche (Ferry Porsche) who was born on the 19th September 1909.
Please see link to his Wiki Page for more detail on his life. 

This year we are off for a drive over the Rimutakas and through some fun and interesting back roads of the Wairarapa before ending up at Lake Ferry Hotel for lunch.
On Sunday morning the 19th September we will meet at the I-Site on SH2 before Silverstream at 9.45am and depart at 10.00am.

Here is our meeting place and the route we will take - stopping in Featherston to meet up with the Manawatu and Wairarapa members before heading inland around the lake.

We have managed to secure a private area inside the Lake Ferry Hotel​ for a maximum of 30 people for a seated lunch - due to COVID restrictions.  We need to respond and confirm our numbers on Thursday.

So we would appreciate if you could please RSPV by 9.00am this Thursday the 16th Sept.

As this is always a popular event and we will fill the 30 places easily, to give as many members as possible, a chance to join us, we are restriction bookings to 2 seats per member. 
First 30 registered will have their seats confirmed.

I am waiting on the Hotel to provide me with a copy of their current group menu so we can choose our mains in advance.  As soon as it arrives - I will send out another email with the menu attached and ask you to reply with your chooses.
But in the mean time please register your interest ASAP via email central@porsche.org.nz
Watch this space.
