17th June 2005 Please see the PCGB site for full details of out 11 cars that supported an even at Poole Quay, 44 Porsche's were on display to an amazed audience that are used to VW's of motorbikes!
 
21st April 2005 Our 1st official meeting as the DORSET Region, at our new venue, Folke Golf Centre. What great support we got from our regular PCGB members as well five Porsche owners who came along to have a look and test the water.

We enjoyed a line up of 15 Porsche cars with 26 members, unfortunately a few of our members came in none Porsche cars. We then focused on our country sports day that will be held on the 08th May this year at the Eweleaze Farm, Martinstown.

We also chatted about an event we have been invited to help support at Poole by a PCGB member from London, we will be able to display at least twenty Porsche cars along Poole Quay on a summers evening in June.

Many offered their support to the Brands Hatch event and the Bowood House tri concours, we also voted to support the R17 regional concours at Bartley Lodge.

Well all I can say is that if this is the beginning and we have this level of commitment from local and visiting members what does the future hold to the Dorset Region, late nights and lots of calls and emails!

The only way is UP........,
Please view a couple of pictures from the evening,  A,   B C, if you were there see if you were caught on camera with that pint. (of coke)

   
17th February 2005 Our 10th meeting, wow, where do I start, we had the best meeting due to some MONSTER news, we were visited by the PCGB chairman who gave us the news that we have been rewarded by getting our official DORSET region back after 10 months or being without our local region. Well done all to get this achievement.
 
16th December 2004 Our 8th meeting, only 14 truly hardy members attended. Yet again welcomed another new face to the group that meets regularly.

Unfortunately it was to, Ka, Ka, cold to stand outside and enjoy the cars, to stay in and chat was the order of the day. Well done all that made it along.

 
19th August 2004 The fourth meeting, fewer attended than last month but we welcomed yet another new face with his 911SC, Gordon C enjoyed his first meet and was very keen to take part.

Once enjoying the cars in the car park was over we enjoyed the pubs surroundings and talked through the opportunities for event in the remainder of this year and what's to come in 2005.

We laughed our way through the Karting Event we had enjoyed on Sunday 1st August, we were so pleased to have had a team come in 4th place, please see our Karting page for more info. Another great evening had by all.
 

 
16th July 2004 Our third get together since our move from the last venue, we are very pleased to share with you that we had 29 Porsche enthusiasts attend with 18 lovely Porsche cars in toe. 3 who attended were new comers, so anyone thinking of coming along don't be shy!

We talked through the opportunities PCGB have proposed and were brought up to speed with the information. We ironed out the details for the Karting Event that is to be run on Sunday 1st August, as well as a drive to Brands at the very end of August.

Great evening, well done to all who attended, and come along in the future.
 

 
17th June 2004 Our Second meeting at the Coach And Horses, well done all, another good turnout.

We chatted about forth coming events and arranged a nine car drive to the Region 17 Regional Concours on the 4th July. Hopefully we might gather a few more up prior to the event. Many of us supported the event last year and it was a lovely hot day with great cars and good company.

We pencilled in a group drive to Brands on the Sunday 29th Aug, times and places to meet will follow. We also hit upon running a local Concours at one of the members homes, several who attended were keen to physically assist with its set up and running.

A few of our KEEN RACER's also were KEEN to arrange a carting afternoon or evening, the date and times to be forwarded, payment required in advance for this event. 11 of those attending put their names down to drive and all the others agreed to go along and support the event, once formalised a offer to other Porsche owners will be made for a drivers competition.

Our first local meeting went very well, as you will see from the several pictures above a lovely evening to share our cars with each other. Lots of thoughts were chatted over while enjoying a drink at the Coach And Horses.
Many who attended were saddened and shocked by the demise of our old meeting location and official Porsche Club label. All who attended keenly want to keep meeting in our local area as well as doing our utmost to support the two nearest regions of PCGB.

We agreed to set up a drive to Bowood House to support the Concours for REGIONS 13,14,16 & 26. Please see our page about Bowood.
