Hello everyone, I've been planning this event for over 6 months and spent hundreds of hours getting to this point to let you all know about this.

This is The Mille 2011 www.TheMille.com

Our goal is to set a Guinness World Record for the largest parade of Porsches ever. The West Coast always has the best Porsche events, until this one.

• 60th Anniversary of Porsche in the USA
• 51st Anniversary of the Peachstate Porsche Club of America
• 25th anniversary of the Porsche 944 Turbo
• 25th anniversary of the Porsche 959

The Porsche Mille is set to be a historic event and gathering of Porsche automobiles at Atlanta Motor Speedway in Hampton, GA on November 5th 2011. The Mille will provide multiple activities for Porsche owners, enthusiasts and their families. The cornerstone of the event is an attempt at a Guinness World Record with the largest number of Porsches in a single parade.

Hey guys, here is the Mille event flyer for you. Just found out today via an email from Porsche that they are bringing a handful of historic race cars to the Mille directly from Rennsport in California. I'll be sure to let you know what cars are coming when I find out!! Hope to see you there.

Hello everyone, the Mille is getting bigger and bigger each day. We just confirmed we will have a helicopter onsite all day to take people for rides and to take our photographer team up for the aerial shots. We have cars and participants coming from all over the country for this event, including some extremely special race cars. Hope to see you there! Lots more updates on the website www.TheMille.com

volunteers

I noted that you are looking for volunteers. I have two friends who have both been PCA members and enthusiasts for more than twenty years who might be willing to work the concours event or possibly some other event. If interested, just email me at avrtarga@gmail.com and I will connect you. They plan to trailer in a 356 and just enjoy the event.

Also, I have served as an interior judge at Porsche Parade for years if that is helpful. The one caveat is that I am showing my car and would need flexibility with that.

Thanks, Alice
