Welcome
The Florida Crown Region (FCR) of the Porsche Club of America (PCA) is one of 139 Regions and 13 Zones in the US and one of 8 Regions in Florida. The Florida Crown Region of Zone 12 includes the northeast and central areas of Florida, north of Orlando and west to Lake City.
FCR includes the following Florida counties: Alachua, Baker, Bradford, Clay, Columbia, Dixie, Duval, Flagler, Gilchrist, Hamilton, Lafayette, Levy, Marion, Nassau, Putnam, St. Johns, Sumter, Suwannee, Union. The center of FCR activities is in Jacksonville (Duval County) Florida.
The Florida Crown Region currently has 445 active members (As of June 2010).
Florida Crown Region Board meetings are held on the first Wednesday of each month at various locations. See the EVENTS section for specific locations and dates. All club members are invited and urged to attend the Board meetings and to become involved in some of the leadership positions of the club.
Your FCR Club is a very active group with various activities throughout the month. We hold scheduled Dinner Socials on the second Tuesday night of each month at various venues around the city and in other local towns. You are invited to attend all of these fun filled evenings to talk PORSCHE, meet new people, participate in our monthly prizes and more. Check the EVENTS section of the web site for current happenings.
We also hold monthly Drive & Dines (D & D) events to various interesting places within a few hours drive of Jacksonville each month. It's really fun to have 20, 30, or more Porsche's cruising down the road together to an interesting location. Again, check the EVENTS section for current and future D & D events.
Your FCR Club provides Driver Education (DE's) courses and PCA Club Racing throughout the year. Test your driving proficiency at a DE and then work your way into the ranks of the club racers. DE's and Club Races are held at several different venues within a few hours drive of Jacksonville. Again, check the DRIVER EDUCATION and CLUB RACING sections of the web site.
If you would like to join the Porsche Club of America visit this web site or if you need to update your PCA membership information, please visit the Porsche Club of America at this web site.
This is your club. It's time for you to get involved and start having some real fun with your PORSCHE and to meet new friends. Come join us !

How to Order New 50th Anniversary FCR Logo Shirts
The New 50th Anniversary Florida Crown Region (FCR) Logo Shirts can be purchased with credit cards, cash or checks at:
APS Promotional Solutions
7121 Beach Blvd.
Jacksonville, FL 32216
904-721-4977
www.apstitch.com
Their website is somewhat difficult to navigate, so I suggest visiting their showroom that is open M-F, 9 to 5 to choose the items that you would like. Prices are wide-ranging, but I feel my Port Authority pique knit polo is a good value, with a choice of a dozen colors, for approx $22 plus tax and shipping. You can pay more or less and it's up to you. They have very nice jackets, t-shirts, twill shirts long and short-sleeve, duffle bags, mugs, mouse pads, and on and on. They cannot apply our logo to hats as the logo is too large - a disappointment for sure.
The shop is on the north side of westbound lanes of Beach Blvd., west of Parental Home Rd., Fontana Restaurant, Hart Xwy overpass, on your right, be prepared to turn! It is a cream stucco one-story building.
Ask for Karri, Pattie, or Sky and tell them you want the new Porsche Club 50th Anniversary logo on your order. It has checkers on the lower quadrant of the Porsche crest and a red "50" on the bottom of the logo. We buy all the DE and Club Race shirts from them and have for years so we are a good customer and they should be helpful to you.
The order may take some time - several of us waited about a month but we were the intial order, so maybe it won't be that long now.
ALSO
The New 50th Anniversary Name Badges are also available at - Holmes Stamp and Sign Co. Contact Lisa Coleman at - lisa@holmesstamp.com. If Lisa's not there, you can also ask for Bryan Croft - bryan@holmesstamp.com. To order by phone, their number is 904-396-2291 or 1-888-465-6373. Put FL Crown Porsche Club in the Subject Line and say you wish to place a name tag(s) order and write out your name as you want it to appear on the name tag. The price is $9 or $9.50 each plus tax plus shipping if you wish - I think they charge a dollar to mail them - and they take credit cards. It's usually a pretty quick turnaround.
Please order and wear your name tags to all of our FCR events.
