Update—It was just brought to
our attention right before this

dates for the Central Valley
Sportsmen, Boat & RV Show will
be moved from the end of February to March 10-12. This conflicts
with the dates set for the inaugural Streets of Bakersfield/Highway
99 event. Chris and Larry asked
for discussion from everyone present at this meeting to decide
what we will do for Super Cruise
2017. Debbie Launer made a motion to have the BCCC stay with
the Central Valley Sportsmen,
Boat & RV Show for Super Cruise
21 for Sat., Mar. 11, 2017, based
on the same arrangement as we
have had in the past. A vote was
taken and all were in favor.
