Monthly Brunches
Monthly Brunches - First and Third Saturdays
The easiest way to start participating in PCA Potomac is to attend one of our monthly brunches where we casually get together on the first Saturday of the month in Gainesville, Virginia and third Saturday of the month in Glen Echo, Maryland. This is a great way to meet other Porsche enthusiasts, talk about your cars, maybe trade some tips, or just hang out and enjoy the morning. Everyone is welcome, including newcomers, out of town PCA members and visitors from any region.
