About this event
****Update**** Parade to Flagstaff! ****Update****
June 21st
“Physical Distancing and Social Engagement.”
As Sir Paul McCartney once wrote: “this ever changing world in which we’re living”, we have a change to this drive.
The state highway department decided now would be the perfect time to tear up and repave 89A through Oak Creek Canyon. So we are not going that way.
The Porsche Parade has been cancelled this year but there’s no reason the Arizona Mountain Region can’t have a Parade on some of our favorite roads!
Join the club on Sunday, June 21st for a drive to Flagstaff for a picnic at Ft. Tuthill County Park.
We will depart the Maverick gas station in Dewey at 9 am (please arrive at 8:30 am for drivers meeting and waivers). The route will take us over Mingus Mountain, Page Springs Road, Cornville Road, Beaverhead Flats Road, Highway 179, and I-17, arriving in Flagstaff around 11:30 am.
Verde Valley and Flagstaff members can meet at various places along the route up or at the park.
This is a “bring your own” picnic lunch. We will be picnicking at Ft Tuthill at the Maricopa Ramada. Plenty of parking and enough space to “socially distance” during lunch. Please bring a chair to insure everyone can keep the appropriate social distance while visiting and enjoying the cool Flagstaff pines. We will be eating outdoors so bring appropriate sun protection, although pine trees will also work J
We will depart for home at 1:30 pm, heading over Lake Mary Road to Clints Wells, down to Camp Verde and arriving back at the Maverick Station around 4 pm.
Please plan to “social distance” at all stops. Face coverings or masks are encouraged for the health of all participants. All participants are encouraged to stay at home if you are at higher risk for severe illness, or if you are sick or experiencing COVID-19 symptoms such as fever, cough or shortness of breath
PCA now requires a “Communicable Disease Waiver” in addition to the usual driving event waiver. This waiver must be signed by all participants at the start of the drive.
Any questions please call Bob Frith at 928-830-3393.
Event requirements
There is no fee for this event; however, participants will be responsible to bring their own lunches. Please pre-register so that we have an accurate headcount for the drive.
