Talking Free Polo w/a Porsche Sunday 9/14/03

Had this forwarded from a friend on the mailing list, sounds like it might be a fun event if the weather is good Sunday...

Appears to be an open invitation!

Dear <friend's name>,

On Sunday, September 14, the Vintage Porsche Club will attend Myopia Polo at the
Playing Fields on Route 1A for match play, Hamilton, MA. New Porsche and Audi
cars will be on display courtesy of Ira Porsche-Audi of Danvers and we welcome
the Porsche Club of New England to rally to attend. Anyone arriving in a
Porsche or an Audi on this day will receive free admission (ordinarily $10 per
Adult).

Ira Porsche will also sponsor a free raffle offering the choice of the use of
either a 2003 Audi Allroad or Porsche Cayenne for a weekend to the lucky winner!

Please join us for a fun day of the best of cars and polo.

Gates open at 1:30pm; play begins at 3:00pm and lasts through about 5:00pm when
there is an awards ceremony. Tailgating is welcome.

FROM THE NORTH:

Take Route 95 South to Route 133 East. Travel Route 133 East. (Route 1A joins
133). Stay on Route 1A South through the Town of Ipswich and on to Hamilton.
Look for the Polo Grounds on left, approximately 2.5 miles after the Hamilton
town line.

FROM THE SOUTH:

Take Route 128 North to Exit 20A (sharp turn) - intersection of Route 1A North.
Travel Route 1A North for 3.8 miles through North Beverly, Wenham, and South

Sounds like fun, see you there!

Hey Don, this is right around the corner (literally) from my house. Will drive my vintage Porsche there and hope to see the Boxster contingent on hand.

Hope to see you Charlie!

Word of warning - Route 1A in Wenham and Hamilton is a full-time speed trap. Posted limit of 30mph is heavily enforced. Be careful.

We're planning on going; latest weather forecast promises beautiful skies. Giving the car a bath so it will look good for the society types ...

We did plan on going - but I got too enthusiastic in my detailing regimen today and tried the RaggTop treatment for the convertible top...

It worked great for "freshening" the top, but the overspray removal was a real hassle. The can says to just "wipe off overspray with a cotton towel" (like it is easy) but I found it to just smear with that approach. Finally figured something out, but by then we were too far behind schedule to get to the Polo event.

Maybe next time...
