Welcome, 2025!
Another year has passed, and we welcome 2025. Thanks to our members for re-electing our previous board to serve for two more years. This year will be more exciting than last year. We are adding new volunteers to join our board, we will have exciting drives and joint events with other regions. We will open up another monthly Cars & Coffee on the coast.
We are looking forward to new volunteers to lead the drives. Our board members will strive hard to make 2025 better than our previous years. So hold tight and let the fun begin.
Special mention—we will miss the smile of my lovely wife Jackie on our drives, car events and Cars & Coffee that she supported.
Thank you, and Enjoy the Ride!

Join us for our first Drive! of 2021 to Dallas City Park, home of the Delbert Hunter Arboretum & Botanical Garden. Assemble at Lowes on West 11th in Eugene at 9:00 am for sign-ins and a safety briefing. We’ll roll promptly at 9:30 am along familiar back road twisties and Kings Valley Highway. The Drive! official ends upon arrival at Dallas City Park. Members will be on their own for a picnic in the park or lunch at a nearby restaurant, as well as the drive home.
RSVPs to centralchapter@cascade-pca.org, masks, and social distancing are still essential. See you on the road!
We’re returning to the original venue for our monthly coffee gathering, beginning on the 7th of August. Once you get to Market of Choice, drive north past Pegasus Pizza and Office Max to the parking lot in the back. There is plenty of safe parking available. Coffee, goodies and restrooms are available inside Market of Choice. We’ll likely gather at the tables right in front of the store.
Join us for a drive through spectacular twisties along the Umpqua River, ending at Henry Estate Winery. Bring a picnic lunch or pick up a snack / light lunch at the Lighthouse Bakery, just before the winery. If you’d like to taste wine, the cost is $5 for 5 tastes, with the fee waived if you buy a bottle. We will have two drive groups from which you can choose: Enthusiast and Touring. Overall pace will be similar, but the Enthusiast group will feel a bit quicker. RSVPs to centralchapter@cascade-pca.org are essential.
Remember: Safe driving is always paramount.
