Sunday, June 5 AZ Outlaws Gathering
Meetings are held the 1st Sunday of every month at the Lone Spur Cafe in Scottsdale. The gathering starts in the summer months around 7-7:30 am, followed by a driving tour for lunch. Join us for a cup of coffee while you look, talk and enjoy 356's up close with other owners.
Our monthly meeting location is the Lone Spur Cafe in Scottsdale
15600 N Hayden Rd, Scottsdale, AZ 85260
- Just South of Frank Lloyd Wright Blvd on Hayden Road. The Lone Spur Cafe is just behind the Dutch Bros and State 48 Lager House.
- For parking, use the small lot spaces in the NW corner of the lot away from the restaurant so we don't block parking access for other customers.
Triple-digit days have arrived (as usual), so the Sunday brunch drive is scheduled to begin early, at 8:30 am, when Bob Mulica will lead the Outlaws to The Grotto Cafe in Cave Creek. Arrival time is expected to be around 9 am. Directions for the drive will be passed out by Bob at the Lone Spur. For a peek at the Grotto menu, visit the website at grottocafe.com.
Get out and Drive That 356!

Four Corners and Durango event and caravan
Escape the Arizona heat this August with an epic drive to Durango, Colorado, via Four Corners, a multi-club event being organized by the Arizona Outlaws, New Mexico Zias and Colorado Rocky Mountain clubs.
The itinerary is still in development, but the event is scheduled for August 25-28. That might sound like a long way off, but don’t delay in making plans and reservations. The Hampton Inn in Durango has a block of rooms set aside for the nights of August 25, 26 and 27. Call the hotel at 970 247-2600 and book under the Porsche 356 group for a discounted rate.
Any questions about the Colorado gathering should be directed to Garry at gwolf5@comcast.net.
Arizona Outlaw Roy Pederson will lead a caravan to the Durango event from the Phoenix/Scottsdale area, meeting up on August 24 at the Shell Station on Shea Boulevard in Fountain Hills. Departure will be at 10:30 am for a trip to the historic La Posada hotel in Winslow, which is about a 2.5-hour drive. Make reservations ASAP at La Posada because rooms are limited.
From Winslow, the caravan will drive on August 25 to Chinle for lunch, then off to the Hampton Inn in Durango. All together, the drive from Winslow should take about 6 hours.
Anyone planning to join the Durango caravan should contact Roy at outlawroy356@icloud.com.

West Coast Holiday in California wine country
The West Coast Holiday is back, with the 356 community ready to converge on Paso Robles, California, for the first Porsche 356 Registry holiday held at that location in 37 years. Registration is now open for the annual event, which takes place September 14-18. Click here for registration and information.
Events and activities included in the West Coast Holiday are visits to the Estrella Warbirds Museum and the Woodland Auto Collection; a plated dinner at the Cass Winery; a tour of historic California missions; Show and Shine Wine Tasting; cooking classes; and available tours to the Sea Lion Sanctuary and the Hearst Castle.
Hotel registrations need to be made ASAP, we’re told, and while the event hotel is fully booked, there are plenty of other lodgings available in this popular vacation town.
Once again, Roy Pederson is organizing an Outlaws caravan to the holiday. “Paso Robles is a great spot for such an event,” Roy says. “The town is surrounded on the west by rolling hills and on east and west with an abundance of wineries.”
At this early juncture, there are already five cars and eight people signed up for the caravan, Roy says. Details are tentative, but the plan is for a three-day secondary-road drive leaving Wickenburg at 2 pm September 12 with overnight stops in Bullhead City or Laughlin, then in Bakersfield.
If you would like to join the Outlaw caravan to Paso Robles, contact Roy at outlawroy356@icloud.com.
California 356 club hosts concours
The 35th concours d’elegance exclusively for Porsche 356s will be held by the 356 Club of Southern California on Sunday, July 17, at scenic Oak Canyon Park in Silverado, California. Award categories have been expanded, the organizers say, to include both open and closed categories, and a People’s Choice award has been added for the Outlaw entries.
Spaces sell out quickly for both concours and display entries, the club advises. For more information and to sign up a 356, visit the concours website at 356club.regfox.com/356club-concours.

Items of Interest:
Seven decades of global Porsche clubs
An interesting landmark in Porsche history happened last month: the 70th anniversary of the creation of the first club dedicated to our very favorite sports cars. In May 1952, a group of seven dedicated Porsche enthusiasts in Germany founded the Westfälischer Porsche Club Hohensyburg, which eventually became the Porsche Club Westfalen.
From that seed we have today a gobal community of about 700 Porsche clubs in 86 nations -- including our very own Arizona 356 Outlaws.
Have a 356-related Item of Interest, a photo or video you would like to share in our newsletter? Send it to Bob Golfen at bgolfen@gmail.com.
