We had a great turnout at our Annual Meeting at one of Connecticut’s most unique destinations, Millpond Gatherings. The meeting included a brunch, club meeting, awards, presentation by Prescott Kelly, a raffle, and plenty of time to mingle with CVR friends. Thanks to everyone who donated to Read to Grow and a very special thanks to our sponsor Porsche of Wallingford. Photo credit to Paul Roth and Walt Hyjek. #cvrpca @readtogrow

This weeks Featured Female Driver is
Jessica Kellogg! Read more about her below 👇

I’ve always believed that my car is an extension of my personality and anyone who’s ever seen me with my Boxster tells me we were made for each other. I’m lucky enough to say my husband, Alex, bought me my 987.1 Boxster this year for a milestone birthday, and I’m still in disbelief that she’s actually mine.
My love of Porsche really started because of Alex. He owns a 996 Turbo, and on our very first date he took me out in it. I had no idea driving could feel like that. It wasn’t until I got behind the wheel of my own mid-engined beauty that I truly understood what “fun to drive” means. The way she handles corners is unlike anything else. Alex encouraged me to try AutoX “just once” to get to know the car better and sharpen my skills. Little did he know I’d fall completely in love with the sport.
I went to every AutoX event this year, even Zone 1, and I wouldn’t have progressed the way I have without people like Paul Kudra and my instructor, Brian Fournier. Their enthusiasm and passion made me want to keep coming back to every CVR event.
Just recently I have started learning how to work on my own car too. It’s become almost as rewarding as driving her.
I can’t wait to see what next season brings! Send it!
