How do I log in if I don't have my username and password? 

If you have never logged in or you are having trouble logging in, you must first have a username assigned by the club to do so. If you do not know your username, contact either Membership Chair Mark Taylor at membership@highdesertpca.org or Media Outreach Chair Hack Heyward at webmaster@highdesertpca.org.  Once you know your assigned username, follow the instructions here FAQ / Tech Library - High Desert Region - Porsche Club of America (highdesertpca.org) These instructions will walk you through the process of receiving a temporary system generated password, and how to log in using that unique and confidential password.

How do I order an HDPRCA name badge?

Members may order badges directly from the club website.  The cost is $12 each.  Once logged in, please click on the “Members Only” drop down in the top menu bar of the home page and select “HDR & PCA Webstore”, then select the “HDR” Local Webstore”.  Click on the image of the HDR Name Badge which will take you to the “Product Details” with images of a sample name badge.  In the text box enter your first name (or nickname) and last name exactly as you wish to have it spelled on the name badge. Click on the “Add to Cart”.  Next click the blue “Checkout” button and finish adding your credit card information and whether you want the name badge to be mailed ($2 additional postage fee) or whether you request the Membership Chair (membership@highdesertpca.org) to bring it to a subsequent meeting or event.  After submitting your order, it will take a couple weeks to complete it.  Contact the Membership Chair should you have any difficulty or if you wish to know the status of your order.

How do I change my address, phone number, contact info? 

This is done in two different places, in the PCA National system at www.PCA.org, and in the HDR ClubExpress website.  For the purpose of elections and balloting, it is the responsibility of each Member to maintain his or her current contact information, including email addresses, in the personal membership information available on login to the PCA National website.  That maintenance can be done here:  https://www.pca.org/login/members/.  Once logged in to the PCA National system, your profile can be accessed on the left side of the page. 

To make changes to your profile and contact information in the HDR ClubExpress website, first log in to ClubExpress.  If you are having trouble with that login, refer to the instructions here:  FAQ / Tech Library - High Desert Region - Porsche Club of America (highdesertpca.org)Once logged in, click on the "Profile" link under your name in the upper right to review and update your personal information. In particular, the club encourages you to check and correct your phone numbers, mailing address, and emergency contact info.  You can choose to add credit card information to your profile here so that you don’t have to enter it for each event where there is a registration cost.
