DRIVE FOR THE KIDS

August 23, 2008

This is the second annual Rocky Mountain Region Porsche Club tour to benefit The Children’sHospital Handicapped Sports Program. This tour is a Challenge Series Event for RMR/AMR members, but is open to all makes and models of vehicles, not just Porsches -  membership in the Porsche Club is not a requirement for entry.

This will be a fun, social and non-competitive driving event designed by our Tour Masters, Lee Sammons and Andy Forberg, through the central part of our beautiful Colorado mountains with great starting and ending locations.

This Rocky Mountain Region/Porsche Club of America tour is being hosted by the Denver Round Table to benefit The Children’s Hospital Handicapped Sports Program (CHSP).   See our newsletter article or fliers for more info about this program. 

 The driving part of the tour will end at the Vail Cascade Resort and Spa which is a AAA Four-Diamond resort.  Dinner, wine tasting and a silent auction will take place at the resort Saturday evening.  Although a room at the resort is not included in the registration fee, a discounted rate of $159/night, including indoor reserved parking, is available for both Saturday and Sunday nights. We encourage everyone to take advantage of this opportunity so you can enjoy a very relaxed weekend of fun activities while supporting a very special group of our kids. You may register at the Resort by calling 800-420-2424 or by email at vcr-groupres@destinationhotels.com. Identify yourselves as being a part of the Denver Round Table-Porsche Club Car Tour when registering to receive the discounted rate.

Located within the Resort is the premier Colorado luxury spa, Aria Spa & Club, which offers you a sanctuary for achieving total wellness. The 10,000-square-foot luxury spa provides exhilarating body and skin treatments that will take you on a relaxing and rejuvenating personal journey. In addition, there is an extensive array of cardio and weight-training equipment, an indoor track, indoor basketball court, indoor tennis courts, heated outdoor swimming pool and hot tubs; Aria Spa & Club takes fitness to the ultimate level. Or, if you just want to have a lazy visit in a four diamond resort, this is the time.
