May 26-28 ZONEFEST the crown jewel of Zone 12 events. Here is a reminder from the North Florida Region team, who are hosting Zonefest this year over Memorial Day weekend in Tallahassee. Can you believe that it is already March 2nd ?!? That means there are less than 60 days until the cut-off date for the DoubleTree Hotel block of rooms being held for Zonefest 2017 in Tallahassee, FL over Memorial Day weekend this year. So please don’t delay. Make your Hotel reservations now!
And, if you still need to register for Zonefest, please do that now also. The weekend’s program is engineered to provide a fun and exciting experience and its activities reflect the varied interests of PCA members themselves: competition driving, concours showing & judging, automotive mechanical and technical subjects, driving tours, fine dining and, most importantly, sharing the great camaraderie that PCA membership provides!
What more can we say, other than Register Today !
Visit the Zonefest 2017 website for links to both the Zonefest Event Club Registration and the DoubleTree Hotel Group Registration sites at http://nfl.pca.org/zonefest_2017.htm
And remember, PCA is “Fueled by Volunteers” and we’re still looking for some bodies to fill open volunteer slots in various areas for Zonefest 2017. If you are interested, please check out the “Fueled by Volunteers” survey link, also on the Zonefest 2017 website.
