Events this weekend, June 13-15:

Friday nite is Downers Grove Air cooled nite.
Saturday is an event at Black Dog Speed Shop in Lincolnshire.
Sunday is the Chicago PCA Concours event at Promenade Mall in Bollingbrook.

Any drives/shows/events tomorrow? Sunday 23 June.

I went to the Iron Gate annual June Intl Auto Show Sunday the 23rd. It was not a great turnout. Plenty of lookers parked on the gravel lots but not as many nice show cars as expected. But there were threats of rain...

Saturday June 29 is the Chicago PCA cars & coffee at Labriola in Oakbrook. That one is usually well attended and the weather should be good (we deserve a break).

A couple i saw was
1. Hooters at 8225 West Higgins Rd, Sunday June 30 from 9 to 3. But it is a car & bike show, so I'm not sure who/what usually attends those..
2. A $20 car show Sunday June 30 at Sacred Heart School, 815 N 16th Ave, Melrose Park, but im not familiar with that show either.

The only other interesting ones in the suburbs i know are the weekly ones, Westmont on Thursdays and Downers Grove on Fridays.

Thanks for the information I need to get out and meet up with you Chicago area guys! Are you a Chicago chapter member?
Mike

Yes. I've owned Porsches for 49 years and been a PCA member for 36 years. But I am retired and do spend Winters in the Orlando area. Come on out to Labriola Saturday AM for cars and coffee. It should be a good event. Weather is looking decent.

+1 on LaBriola this Saturday. Fun event

Sounds good. See you guys Saturday

See you guys!

Weather looks great. See y'all at Labriola...

I had a good time meeting some of you, talking about our cars and getting into the scene. I appreciate the easy going and friendly attitudes!
See you next time,
Mike

SuperCar Saturdays car show is tomorrow at The Arboretum in South Barrington. May be a shower or two, but otherwise the weather looks good with temperatures in the 70s.

Has anyone seen anything else in Chicagoland this weekend?

Here's some event info...

NEW FOR 2019 Arrival Information
