In the mid 1990s interest was at a low, and the region became essentially inactive. In 1997 it was brought back to life by Gerald Davis who volunteered to be the first Sonnenschein president. Growth was rapid in those early years of reinvigoration and Sonnenschein won a PCA membership award in 1999. We were also blessed with a superb Facebook manager and Newsletter editor. We are on our fifth Sonnenschein president, and are fortunate to have 3 of 4 past presidents still active in the club. We’ve also received our 40th anniversary banner from PCA. Our Present 2020 Porsche Where is Today Sonnenschein Region PCA generally provides a balance of both social and track events to satisfy our 100+ members. Social activities have included visits to a local vineyard, a ferry ride to Dauphin Island, tours through our countryside, car shows at the National Museum of Naval Aviation, and visits to a local car museum. For local track vents, we conducted over 150 DE and autocross events. So 2020 finds Sonnenschein with an active and enthusiastic membership enjoying many social activities, and looking forward to adding more events to our calendar. You, too, will be a welcome part of our present club and be a valued member in building our future...please join us!
