July 07-14, 2018 – Lake of the Ozarks
The 2018 Porsche Parade was held at Osage Beach on the Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri. About a dozen Smoky Mountain Region members made the drive, had a good time, and many represented well in various competitive events. The cars were beautiful, the company was great, the venue sufficed, and a good time was had by all. Below are links to picture pages, organized by day. Enjoy.
