- Comments Off on Meet the Member: A call for Members to Share their Porsche Journey! – Marnie Cameron
If you’ve read the Desert Drive newsletter over the last several years, a mainstay article has been the Meet the Member section. This section was created so that ALL members had an opportunity to introduce themselves to club members and share their Porsche Journey.
Every Porsche has a story—and so does every Porsche owner. Whether it was the thrill of seeing your first Porsche as a kid, your first 911 drive, the joy of restoring a classic, or the adventure of road-tripping in your Cayenne, we want to hear your Porsche journey.
Our club is more than a collection of incredible machines, it’s a community built on passion, experience, and the love of driving. That’s why we’re inviting members to submit short articles about their personal Porsche story. How did you fall in love with the brand? What model stole your heart? What model do you currently have? Any modifications? What memories have you made [...]

Have an Emergency On The Road? What’s in Your “Go Bag”?
By: Jordan Godorov
I have been a licensed driver for over 30 years. In that time, I have had my share of emergencies on the road. Whether it was running out of gas, getting a flat tire, having a mechanical breakdown, or getting stuck in inclement weather, I was always prepared for the situation.

Meet Dave and Jan Sunderhaft
Dave and his wife Jan have been PCA members for over 40 years. They bought a home in Henderson 1999 and immediately got involved with the Las Vegas PCA. It’s been a great club to make new friends and introduce us to all Las Vegas offers. The Club’s driving tours were very helpful introducing us to the region.
Their attraction to Porsches started in the mid ‘70s when they acquired a light blue 1964 356 Cab while living in Syracuse, NY. They have owned at least one Porsche ever since. The 356 was sold in 1983 in anticipation of the new 911 Carrera Cab. The Carrera cab was replaced in 1996 with a 993 C4S. Then joined for 10 years by a dedicated 944 S2 track car and later a ‘94 RS America. After those cars came his current ‘77 911S and his prize ‘92 968.

- Comments Off on Southern Utah was the place for summer Porsche fun!
By Craig Shanklin
In June, Southern Utah LVR members hosted a packed weekend of summer Porsche fun. On Friday, June 20, a mix and mingle…”Cars and Cocktails”…was held at the new Strap Tank Brewery in St. George. The themed two-story micro-brewery is named after the famous Harley Davidson motorcycle but is loaded with other great memorabilia, most provided by the reality TV series American Pickers, including a full size WW I airplane. Over 45 LVR members enjoyed appetizers, drinks and dinner….and lots of great conversation. With almost 50/50 participation, it was a great merging of Las Vegas and Southern Utah members. The brewery pulled out all the stops to host the Las Vegas Region and provided free appetizers, their best staff and reserved VIP parking for all Porsches. This fun event was coordinated by PCA member Diane Shanklin.
