Zone 12 Happenings – March 2023

Category : News

How in the world did it get to be March already?  I know that I’ve been enjoying the great Florida weather we have been having.  All of my non-Florida friends are jealous of us here in the sunshine state because we get to drive our Porsches during the winter months.  Hopefully your Porsche has been able to take you on some great drives the past month.  Below are just a few of the events that are going on in Zone 12.  Check your local Regions website for more events close to home or venture out to another Region for some fun.

I would also like to give a shout out to all of you that came out to volunteer this weekend at Werks.  This event was a huge success because of you!!!  Thank you so much!!!

12 Hours of Sebring – March 17–March 18   VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

Volunteers are still needed for the 12 Hours of Sebring.   If you are attending this event, please consider helping out for a few hours. Volunteering is super easy and there is no prior experience required!!    There are shifts open on Friday March 17 and Saturday March 18.   I have a very limited number of free tickets to the event for the day that you volunteer.   To volunteer, drop me an email at Oneporschegirl@gmail.com .  Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!!!
