RPM 2021 provided the Shenandoah Region with an outstanding venue at Independence Golf Club and a day of spectacular weather. We had over 100 in attendance. Independence Golf Club did an outstanding job hosting us and provided exemplary service. The weekend began with the trackcross at Dominion Raceway. Our autocross team of Erik Boody and Rick Ebinger once again provided an outstanding event. I saw nothing but enthusiastic smiles from participants.

Following the trackcross, we had a tech session and cocktail party at Euroclassics Porsche in Midlothian with over 70 PCA members in attendance. I want to thank Euroclassics for hosting this event during RPM.

The day of the RPM Concours and Porsche Corral began with perfectly clear skies in what turned out to be an outstanding September day. I was extremely pleased with the participation in our second year of COVID. Everyone who attended clearly enjoyed being out amongst friends and passionate Porsche enthusiasts. The venue provided a very high quality event and a very tasty lunch under the golf course pavilion.

The day concluded with a driving tour led by eastern vice president Charlie Agee. The drive had three groups lead by Charlie, Tyler Agee and Mike Early. Comments from the driving tour attendees were that they all had a great drive over exciting roads.

I would like to thank those that provided their time to make this event as outstanding as it was: Dan Kuchenberg (western vice president), Paula Ironmonger, Charlie Agee (eastern vice president), Engelbert and Claudia Meulhaupt, Jim Tetterton, Chip Williams, Elvin and Peggy Hedgpeth, and the head Concours judges, Hank Weil and Roger Borsink.
