SALINAS R

CEREBRAL .P S
AL Y
BENEFIT RACES
In 1962, the Salinas Ramble rs M. C.
of Salinas , Cal. felt the desir e and need
to be of some definite co mm unity service . It was the ir wish to a s s ociate wi th
a sponsoring organization for the purpose of providing a c haritable use fo r th e
p r oc eeds of their m otorcycle race s. The
Salinas BP O Elks Lo dge No . 614 had the
manpower and organization to sponsor
s uch eve nts, an d firs t an d foremost, it
ha d as i ts chari table goal the aiding of
cereb ral palsied an d othe r physically
handica ppe d c hildren.
Under th s.c o-sponsorshtp of the Ramble rs and El ks, the fi rst races were held
in the summer of 1962, at the Sheriff' s
posse grounds in Salinas . The public
r espons e was so great that plans were
ma de i mmediate ly to move the races to
the California Rodeo Gr ounds wi th a
seating capaci ty of 20,000 people . The
attendance a t thatfir steventwas approximately 1,500 and the ne t p roceeds were
$2,200. Since that modest beginning,
races have been held annually and tbe
attendance has increased to approxi-.
mateIY 10,000 and the ne t 'pr ofi ts to
$11, 165. 47 In 1967. Six years of racing
un der the co- spons or s hi p has r esulted
in a total contribution of $33,832.20 for
the benefit of cerebral palsied and other
handi capped children. 100% of the net
p r oceeds de r ived for the yearly one-day
racing event go to this great cause.
This year's r aces are scbeduled for
Sun day, Augus t 25, 2968, a t the Californi a Rodeo Grounds on North MaIn Street
in Salinas. The races will comme':!ce at
11:00 a.m, and in volve the participation
of mo r e than 650 riders from all over
Califor nia. T ime T r ials take place between 7: 30 to 10:3 0 a.m . A great added
attraction to the s pectators will be the
r ear wheel riding contest, an d s idecar
racing i s also slated for this year's
