Well we are off in running (pun intended) raising funds for Special Olympics. This is the second year we have participated in the North California Special Olympics Torch Run. Our day for our run is June 12th, the Hollister Police Department leg is from the Superior Court House to HPD. I am very proud of our employees that are choosing to participate in this great event for these very special athletes. Anytime we can help lift up and spotlight folks that need our help in this community and region, we are going to try to do something if we can.
The San Benito Saddle Horse Show & Rodeo kicks off this weekend with the Miss San Benito contest June 9th at 10 AM at Bolado Park. This is a free event for the public.

It’s going to be a busy few weeks for all of us in the community. Many local Rodeo families will be leaving for the California State High School Rodeo Finals in Bishop, CA this weekend.
Personally, I will be at every one of these events. Additionally, I am going to Bishop to support my daughter and friends at the State Finals this next week. I will also be running the Spartan race at Toro Park on June 10th and then running the Special Olympics Torch Run on June 12th. I guess I’ll sleep when I die...lol.
I hope you try to come to many of these local events to share some fun with your neighbors, these events bring us closer together and makes our community stronger.
