Welcome . . . and some words about us

Welcome to the Web Site of the Lone Star Region of the Porsche Club of America. This web site is an introduction to the wide variety of activities and events we host. The Lone Star Region of the Porsche Club of America invites YOU to join its approximately 950 members, who are Porsche owners in southeast Texas.

The Lone Star Region of the Porsche Club of America was formed in 1961, six years after PCA was founded to cater to the particular needs and interests of the owners of Porsche cars. In support of the PCA's objectives, the Lone Star Region sponsors Porsche Club Races, Driver Education Events, Concours Events, Autocrosses, Rallies / Fun Runs, and social events to promote improved understanding of the Porsche automobile and driving practices.

We encourage members to participate actively in the various Club events and invite all Porsche owners who share our interest in Porsches to join the Porsche Club of America and, for those of you in the 37 county area around Houston, the Lone Star Region. Regardless of the kind of Porsche activity you choose and the model of Porsche you drive, LSR can be a place to meet and enjoy our activities with great group of friends.

Our Club Charity is

Magnificat House is the charity supported by the Lone Star Region of the Porsche Club of America. Suport has largely gone to St. Joseph House serving adults recovering from mental illness. In additon to funding projects, donations have included computers, monitors, and DSL service, which have assisted Clubhouse members who want to learn computer skills, become involved with the weekly newsletter, learn Excel on practical matters for the Clubhouse, prepare the monthly calendar, and plan and execute the layout for the quarterly Magnificat Mirror.

Recently, Lone Star Region was called on to help with significant upgrades to the Magnificat House soup kitchen, Loaves & Fishes. These upgrades were identified during a Board of Health inspection and were needed to allow the kitchen to continue operating and to improve their level of service. Lone Star Region's financial support covered the replacement of their commercial refrigerator and their food disposal system, the installation of ventilation and floor fans, a complete upgrade of all electrical wiring, and the costs of a licensed electrician to supplement the Magnificant House maintenance crew. Our Chairty Chair delivered a check to Sister Sara within a week of the request for our assistance.
