PCA - Palm Springs Region

Marque Club

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. In just a little over two years of existence, and at the end of 2025, we have over 450 members! We thank all who have continued to support us and participate in our events and activities; to Elynn Kennedy and her vision, and we dedicate our continued success as a Porsche Club of America Region to her memory.
