In 1986 Dave Stringham, a dedicated Porsche Club member, finally got tired of driving to Los Angeles or San Bernardino to attend meetings. After doing a little homework, he decided to start a local region. The minimum number of members necessary was 25. Dave, being very outgoing, would just walk up to a Porsche owner and tell them they were going to become a member. Enough took him seriously and in October 1986 California Inland Region was born. Joining our Zone 8 representative at the festivities were about 90 percent of the members. It looked like we were off to a good start. Dave also started the newsletter “Inland Rag” which was later renamed Winding Roads. Dave was instrumental in initiating some great events.
