About this event
Important note about this tour: First, since it is relatively short notice, we ask that you only register if you are quite sure you will attend since there will not be much time to move people up off any wait list that develops. Second, note that this tour starts all the way down in Olympia, so allow enough time to get there for waiver signing in advance of the driver's meeting!
Join us for the “Winter ‘Hoods and Hood” tour – our Second 2024-2025 "winter" tour. Designed for Members who drive your Porsche year 'round! Our journey explores the Olympic lowlands with choice roads, gorgeous views of Hood Canal, and peeks at Olympic peaks. See how much more you can see when the summer leaves have fallen! We’ll also explore the rural-on-rural neighborhoods around Dabob Bay on our way to the Hood Canal Bridge. Our destination is Poulsbo with lunch at your choice of several restaurants all within walking distance of each other. Also, enjoy Sluy's, a famed Scandinavian bakery, shopping, and a stroll along Liberty Bay. Return by land through Bremerton or a choice of 2 ferries just minutes away. Come drive with us on roads less traveled this time of year! Do you prefer not to drive your Porsche? That's OK on winter tours!
Important note: We will once again split this tour into two "cells". Groups 1, 2 and 3 will show up between 8 and 8:30; driver's meeting at 8:30; first group departs at 9:00 with 10 minute spacing. Groups 4 and 5 will show up between 8:30 and 9:00; driver's meeting at 9:00 and group 4 departs at 9:30 with Group 5 departing 10 minutes later. If we expand this tour to 6 groups. Group 6 will depart 10 minutes after Group 5.
