The Savannah 2011 Porsche Parade, an annual gathering of the cars — with more than 700 Porsches — has been going on since July 31 and will last until Saturday, August 6. Look for many of the cars rolling into Beaufort and the Sea Islands.

Thursday, Aug 4: All day long, approximately 170 cars will be following a Gimmick Rally route from Savannah through Beaufort to Penn center and St. Helena Island and back through the Old Point and the town of Beaufort.

Friday, Aug. 5: A bus group from Savannah will arrive in Beaufort at the visitor center around 10 a.m. for a guided Beaufort Tree Walk volunteered by Lady’s Island Garden Club members. The visitors will end the walk at the town clock for shopping and lunches and meet the bus in the early afternoon at the waterfront. For more information, visit http://parade2011.pca.org.
