I'm planning to go! Remote possibility I might have to travel for work then, but I'm going to plan on it for now.

Same here! Hopefully the weather will be a little better than last year.

I have signed up and hope to be able to attend.

I have been once before, several years back, and it is a great event.

I'm taking tomorrow off to drive up from Raleigh, and will be going a bit out of my way to drive the whole length of the Skyline Drive and pass through Harper's Ferry before heading east to Columbia.

Somehow I have only been on a portion of the Skyline Drive once (though I've driven the entire Blue Ridge Parkway 4 or 5 times now) so I'm looking forward to checking it out.

Anyone familiar with the area have suggestions or recommendations on where to go, what to do, and sights to see?

Thanks!

Blue Ridge Parkway / Skyline Drive is a very scenic route. There are loads wineries, breweries, and cideries on your way to Harper's Ferry. Also, if you're a Dukes of Hazzard fan, there's this place along the way https://www.facebook.com/CootersinSperryville/

What time are you gentlemen arriving? Sander and I will be there right about 10. The small lot in front of Hdqtr is usually all filled by 0900. Most of us usually park in the circle directly in front.
Jeremy- what car are you driving? I'll be there in my beater 64.

What an amazing day! Great seeing old friends and meeting new like-minded Porsche owners!

This was the best PCA HQ Open House so far.

Indeed, it was a fantastic day to be with Porsche fans! Some amateur photos to share.

I tried to capture as many Rennlister's cars as I could. My apologies if I missed yours.
