Volunteering
What's the most fun thing to do at Parade? Volunteer to work at an event. The Porsche Parade is 99% volunteer supported! That's how all of us from all over the country get to know each other, by working a couple of two hour shifts during the week with other PCA members. Volunteers are very much needed with the numerous tasks to help make this event run smoothly. Please take a moment and look at the Parade website to see where help is needed. As a thank you, you will be eligible to attend the exclusive Volunteer Party Luncheon on Saturday, June 29th—there are numerous door prizes too!
