Zone 3 showed well in the contest for Factored Growth with Wilderness Trail almost defending it’s 2020 win and coming in second and Three Rivers making the the Top Five! Congrats to both! The contest resets for 2022 and all PCA Regions have a chance at winning this year! 2022 Events are Up on Zone 3 Calendar! The Zone 3 Calendar (HERE) has been updated with A BUNCH of 2022 events. Important to note the events shown may be rescheduled or cancelled so confirming with the host Region before the event is a good plan. The Zone 3 calendar is focused on the major events that might attract members from other regions and is not designed to take the place of any Region’s website calendar. In fact, the Region websites will be even more critical to check for event information in 2022 as local ordinances will probably change throughout the year and may alter the nature of events or the ability for your Region to execute an event, but the local Region website is always the go to for all events happening in a given Region. A handy source for all Region website’s in Zone 3 is located HERE.
