drug education programs as well as in avariety of other settings with great success. The McCrmff

Dublin Police Services D.A.R.E.,
On behalf of the Altamont Cruisers, I am pleased to present to Dublin Police
Services D.A.R.E. this ~ant for year 2000.
The Altamont Cruisers Car Club based out of Livermore California has a
membership this year of 70 families living throughout the Tri-Valley area. Over the
past nine years, the'Club has held different fundraisers with the majority of the
proceeds going to various local organizations.
This year fundraiser was a car show held on September 26. This show had over 400
entries, including stock, modified and special interest vehicles, filled downtown
Livermore from 2na to 4th Streets, and L Street to South Livermore Avenue, a ten-
block area. Because of this effort, the club is proud to have raised $12,000 for local
charities. This brings the club's total contributions, over the last four years, to Tri-
Valley organizations to over $50,000.
The success of our car shows is because of great support by the members and
contributions by sponsors and businesses throughout the valley. This year our
Major sponsor Valley Lube Center of Livermore joined 41 other sponsors in
contributing to our success. '
The Altamont Cruisers hope that Dublin Police Services D.A.R.E. has a prosperous
2000.
