Thank you for the tremendous support!

The 2nd Annual Community Day and Car Show took center stage on Sunday at the Alisal Campus where we welcomed nearly 80 car entries and over 300 car enthusiasts. None of it would have been possible without the amazing Ag, Business, and Industries (ABI) staff and Celia Anderson who led the way.

Congratulations on a successful event. See you next year!
