That was about the same time I dropped out of the POCI since they didn't want us GTO owners anymore. Might have to revisit joining since all those members probably passed away by now.

All together I have been a member about 30 years but not consecutively. After putting on the 1995 convention some of us had some differences of opinion with POCI.

congrats!
 I dropped out before I could get my first pin, because the yearly cost, and benefits were unjustifiable; I really liked SS, but when relooking at our monthly budget, it just needed to get axed.

My 40 year pin also came in the mail last week. I joined in when I was 18 years old, shortly after I bought a 77 Can Am. Seems like yesterday!

I joined in 1991 or 1992 (I was 15 or 16), been a member since and have never seen anything other than smoke signals. Do you have to request them? I probably wouldn’t do anything with it though.

I left years ago, i think I got a lousy decal, I tried to get a new copy at the Pontiac museum but they couldn’t find the new issues.
I took one of their stickers and made a grill badge at work, ended up selling it at Dayton. Prob costed 1000 $ when it was done lol They should give you a nice grill badge instead of a pin. One of their meets I asked about getting a grill badge, he said you gotta have a nice car, I said or a screwdriver

The Grill Badge is nice!
Only available if you attend and place at a convention/show.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
