Welcome, Porsche 356 Enthusiasts of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa and Wisconsin!
What's New?
On May 16, the club had its first virtual monthly breakfast over Zoom. 17 members were
in attendance, and the conversation was lively.
Two weeks into being forced to stay home by the coronavirus, the Midwest 356 Club
held its first, and we hope its last, Shelter In Place Car Show. The turnout was
huge, and you can view the results
here.
On Easter Sunday club members Jason Kick and Cindy Olson made a driving tour of the
deserted streets of downtown Chicago in their 356B Coupe, stopping along the way to
photograph the car in front of a large selection of the city's landmarks. Click

Speaking of Zoom, the PCA Chicago Region has invited our members to a series of meetings
to be held every other Thursday at 7:30 pm. The next one will be on May 28,
entitled “Talking Concours”. The topics will include:
Welcome an Introductions by host Michael Grove

Q & A
Club members who wish to participate, watch your email for a Zoom invitation with the
information needed to join the meeting.
Spring greetings to you from the Midwest 356 Club on this snowy afternoon! Despite
the various stay-at-home protocols in place as a result of the Coronavirus outbreak,
your club is still hard at work. The board held its regularly scheduled board
meeting on March 21 by phone, and we are committed to offering a quality program in a
safe manner. Because
the trajectory of the current epidemic cannot be foreseen, we will evaluate each event
independently regarding health safety. We will modify, postpone, or cancel
events, as needed. There are many great events planned for 2020, and we’re
hoping to do as many as possible. Please check your inbox and this website
for updates.
Please contact me if you have any questions, and stay healthy!

President, Midwest 356 Club
