1 NORTHWINDS July 2016 Brought to you by Wayne & Fredericka of Windermere NorCal Properties Porsche Club of America Shasta Region Inc. P.O. Box Redding, CA July 2016 PCA Shasta Region Tourmeister Report by Allen C. Krohn The weather was very cooperative for our July Shasta region Porsche Tour. It was an unusually cool summer day with clear skies and a slight breeze. Tourmeister Report We started in Redding, headed down I-5 to Red Bluff where we joined the rest of the Tour group. Together, we totaled 13 Porsches and 23 occupants. There were six Boxster's four 911/Carrera's, two Caymans and one Panamera. From there our route took us Northeast up SR 36 to Mineral. We always like to take the "172 detour" round the east entrance to Lassen Park which is not only scenic but a spirited drive, and today was no exception. After a photo opportunity astride Mill Creek Meadow, we stopped for lunch at a destination we had yet to try on any of our previous tours. The Highlands Ranch Resort had just opened about a year ago. The restaurant and Lodge were spectacular, the service great and the food wonderful. This will definitely be a stopover on future tours. From there, we continued Northeast on 36 to the junction of Highway 32 and headed back down Deer Creek Canyon to Chico for our final stop at the Starbucks on Forest Avenue. For those of us in Redding, it was a 225-mile loop, and we enjoyed every bit of it. Several people posted great pictures on Facebook for all of us to enjoy----thank you to those that did. Congratulations to Mike Morrison, who won the poker hand with Queens over Sixes! I am not allowed to divulge the extent of his winnings, but suffice it to say it was HUGE. Our next Tour is August 14th. We will go through Lassen Park from the West, starting in Redding via SR 44. Lunch will again be at the Highlands Ranch Resort. The return leg will be Southwest on SR 36.

2 Shasta Region Zone Tour Schedule by Allen Krohn Save These Tour Dates! We will have "spontaneous Mini- Tours" throughout the year, typically on a Saturday or Sunday. Watch for announcements the week before. Tour #7 -- Aug 14 REVISED Next month, we will scrap the Etna Tour since the latest on Buckhorn Summit is that it is in even worse shape than we had thought. So we will go through Lassen Park instead (we haven't done that route for a couple of years, anyway). An added benefit is that we will get to have lunch at the Highlands again. One of our "breaks" will be at the summer retreat of the Bonessa's (Brian and Maureen) who have a cabin near Viola. More details to follow... Tour #8 -- Sep Tahoe & Yosemite via Tioga Pass OVERNIGHT-3 Hwy 36 to 89 with Lunch in Graeagle; Dinner at Harrah's South Shore; Overnight at the Montbleu; Overnight at the Tenaya Lodge.
