Jack Staggs and I are hosting the annual 356th Day of the Year Party in San Clemente. Bring your favorite beverage, chip/dip or dessert, but most of all, bring yourself.
This is a free event, no registration required and is open to anyone that’s even remotely interested in 356.
When: Saturday December 16, 2023 - Rain date tbd… this is SoCal.
Where: 1321 Calle Valle Unit N, San Clemente, CA 92672
Time: 10:00AM ~ 5PM or until the last folks leave. Lunch will be served at 12, to give everyone a chance to eat (not just the early birds).
How: Drive your 356 (beater, daily driver, rusted out, Concours, 4Cam, etc) and park it with as many as can fit on the property (lots of em). Or arrive in any manner possible. The important aspect of the party is that you get to this gathering.
Contact: Any questions at all, contact:
Jack (949)492-9606 or email [email protected]
Trevor (949)573-5606 or [email protected]
Food and beverages are provided. However... contributions of either or both will be gratefully accepted and enjoyed by the many.
What is there to do? Eat BBQ, consume beverages, hang with a bunch of like minded Porsche nuts, look at lots of cool 356’s, marvel at and drool on Jack’s “356 stuff” and participate in a “Miniature Swap Meet*.”
*What’s a “Miniature Swap Meet?” Items for swap that you can carry in your 356. Bring out your extra parts and pieces to help other folks finish their projects! No truckloads please. If you’ve got a spare engine, transaxle, etc., print up the information, make it available to potential swappers. No speculators or sharks.

| Did you have a good turnout at your party? Any photos of some or many of the 356 which were displayed? |

Roland,
Unfortunately Trevor had a heart attack just a few days before the event. He is doing well and recuperating but I did not hear if the event was canceled or not, there is nothing on the Registry forum about it either.
A Go Fund Me was set up for Trevor, he is one of the good ones in our hobby!
