What does my PPC membership give me above a t-shirt and license plate holder??? I have found the information in their members only site to be good but mostly common sense or info all of us could get from the manufacturer directly. I think I could get the same info from the POA.

Living in Virginia I at least thought my VA director would contact me to at least say HI. I see other states having all kinds of get togethers but VA, MD, and DC are the badlands of prowling. Should I contact PPC about my States poor activities or maybe start a POA region for the mid-Atlantic states.

Are you listening Mike and Larry?????

Prowl on and GO HOKIES!!!!

For obvious reasons, I'll skip answering the first few questions that you asked.

Yes, definitely contact the PPC to see what they can or will do to help you. Also consider taking charge of your own destiny and organizing some events through the POA and the ProwlerOnline for the other lost souls in your area. The hardest thing is to get in touch with the other owners in your area. By using the registry you can contact some but the best way is to do it through networking and E-mailing anyone that you think may be interested. I do not limit the involvemnent to Prowler Owners only. Many of our events have other types of cars present and everyone seems to enjoy our events. We have had Cobras, Vipers, Oldsmobiles, PT Cruisers and many other cars at our events. In my opinion, Car people are car people, the more the merrier!

Another idea is to contact Mike Challis of the PT Cruiser Club to see if they have any events planned in your area. Mike has been especially helpful in having his directors invite Prowlers to all of their events and we do the same for them. This is all about having fun and getting the people and cars out onto the road for some great times.

If you are having problems with no events in your area,,,remember that everyone else in your area is having the same problem.
Bottom line,,,if you want a good time and some fun events,,,Make it happen! You guys back there have some beautiful country to cruise in.

If I can be of any assistance please don't hesitate to ask.

Davidn,

I re-read the entire thread you are referring to, and I do not think the members were referring to you. Someone had used that line in a post prior to yours. Posts after that most likely were just referring to the situation as a whole and not directed at you. I am sorry that you feel this way. You may want to e-mail those people and ask them to whom or what they were referring to.

VT,

I will check into what you are talking about and reply to you via e-mail. Feel free to contact me if you have any other problems.

Tom Kalski, PPC VP & Co-OHSD

I'd say start a POA region (personal preference)

Thanks for the assistance Tom. And thanks to all others for the excellent advice.

I do know there are at three or four Prowlers in the DC area. Guess I'll have to track them down.

read my post at ppc under "it's fair for every one read" and the answer from ppc. it deals with the same thing you are asking about.i was at the same place you are now 2 months ago.i did what every one here are suggesting for you to do.it works look at the the event photos from our last two events. You are part of the P.O. A.

Davidn,
I am the one who wrote about people with expensive toys and that are still children.
That was a general statement and in no way was directed at you. I do not make personal attacks and if it was believed that the statement was directed to you, please accept my apologies. We seem to have two great clubs and my number one concern is Prowler fun.
if you want it is free and informal.the idea is to have fun and enjoy this great car.
good thing you did not post this question at ppc.i did and some of the members answered by calling me a child with expensive toys.
