Rennsport members participated in the September 5^th Coffee Run through Eastern Ontario, enjoying nice scenery, good roads and an easy drive. The highlight of the day was a visit to the former WW2 pilot training airfield at Pendleton, Ontario where we were hosted by the Gatineau Gliding Club. Members learned all about these sleek aircraft that provide thrills without any engine – just using the air currents to stay aloft and enjoy spectacular views of the terrain below. GGC members were on hand to explain how gliders operate and answered the many questions our curious crew had. A fun outing!

The Rennsport Region was well represented at the 2026 Porsche Club of America (PCA) Porsche Parade in Lake Placid, New York (see photos, below).  Many members from Ottawa and Montreal travelled down to Lake Placid as a group.  They were joined along the way by members of the Acadia Chapter.  Congratulations to James Salt who took first in Concours in Street Class and second in AutoX.  Kudos also to Karen Branston for winning the 3rd place ribbon in the 2026 Parade Art Show, “Porsche takes the lead at Laguna Seca”.  Lots of competition, but Karen’s painting is too good to miss.   And in a non-car event, Francine Lacasse won her Class in the 5km Run at Lake Placid. Well done all!  Further details on all the events can be found on the PCA web site.
