About the Palm Springs Region

Elynn Kennedy's Vision

 We are pleased to announce the official creation of Southern California's newest region in the Porsche Club of America, the Palm Springs Region. Founded in 2023, our group of enthusiastic Porsche owners are excited and grateful to have the opportunity to expand our participation in local, regional, and national Porsche club activities and events.

Our guiding force in this endeavor was Elynn Kennedy, a passionate Porsche owner with the idea and vision to start the process of region formation in our Greater Palm Springs-Coachella Valley area. Upon getting her first Porsche with her husband Ralph, she discovered that there were many Porsche owners but little organized social and driving activities originating in our area. As a PCA member and officer of an adjacent region, Elynn, as Vice-President and Membership Chair, worked tirelessly to grow activities and events that would contribute to club growth in the Coachella Valley. 

Elynn’s leadership example sparked a core of local Porsche enthusiasts to plan and implement driving tours, breakfasts, dinners, and other social activities, with the goal of eventually creating a PCA Region in our geographically separate and unique desert valley. As the plans took shape, the word spread and the activity participation grew exponentially. With the friendship, support and backing of our local Porsche dealer, Porsche Palm Springs, our activity participation and growth expanded even further. 

We thank all who have supported us and participated in our events and activities, to Elynn Kennedy and her vision, and we dedicate our future success as a new Porsche Club of America Region to her memory.
