PCA Polar: 2nd Annual Concours "Lite"

After the past few weekends of snowy weather, it was no surprise that temperatures in the mid 20s brought out a plethora of shiny Porsches. This year's entries ranged from a 1958 356 Cabriolet to the very latest of 911 Twin Turbos, with a total of 31 entries and another 10 or so display vehicles.

	Left: Registrar Bev Calhoun arrived before the first of the Porsches to ensure all went smoothly Right: Keeners arrived early
	Left: The right accessories were important ... I mean the knee pads. Right: While not a competitor in the Concours, Jack's 911 track car was hard to miss
	Left: Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately) there were no takers for this offer Right: Organizer Ivor Lammerink made sure every detail was looked after, including the position of the entrants
	Left: Judges look over John's stunning 1961 356 Coupe Right: Judges comb over every inch of Ivor's 1984 911 Carrera
	Left: At the BBQ that followed, the food trough started outside ... Right: ... and didn't end until guests were back inside.
	Left & Right: Winner of the "Classics" (1954-73) Bert Leemburg from Wild Rose region in Calgary and his 1958 356 Cabriolet
	Left & Right: Winner of Class A (1974-89) Eric Underwood and his 1986 944 Turbo
	Left & Right: Winner of Class B (1990-97) Karl Wetzlaugk and his 1997 911 Carrera
	Left & Right: No, not a mistake ... the winner of Class C (1998-present) was also Karl Wetzlaugk with his 2002 911 Turbo
	Left & Right: Winner of the People's Choice Award Neil Calhoun and his 1996 911 Targa
	Left: Special thanks to the judges — Craig, Matthew, Victor, Guy and Jim — who just couldn't be bought. Right: And thanks as well to the all-to-often forgotten wives who played an integral role — Bev, Angel and Teresa

The bottom line is that the 2nd Annual Concours 'Lite' was a resounding success overall. The number of cars doubled over last year, the banquet was sold out, and we raised a sizable donation to charity — not to mention that all the participants had and enjoyable day all around. Thanks to Ivor Lammerink and all the volunteers that made this event the success it was.

And the results are ...
