Hesperia Man Killed in Bombshells Bar Stabbing, Family Asking for Community Help

VICTORVILLE –  The San Bernardino County Fair officials asked 24/7 Headline News to run this article, provided by them in its entirety. Although we do not typically post releases in this fashion we are respecting their wishes to assist in getting information out to the public. Please comment and let us know what you think of this event:

The High Desert Event Center at the San Bernardino County Fair will host the California

Chalice Festival July 8—10. Apparently, the decision to allow this event has caused

some in our community to have concern due to a newspaper article with the sensational

headline about the event which read (in part)…“biggest hash festival in America…” As

much as the promoters may like to believe it’s the “biggest” in America, the terminology

was nothing more than a marketing gimmick.

 

Because the Board and management staff at the San Bernardino County Fair approved

the event at the Fairgrounds does not reflect their opinions about whether they do or do

not support medical marijuana. We have heard the criticisms over approving the event,

but it has to be understood that the Board and management staff at the San Bernardino

County Fair can’t inject their personal beliefs and act in a discriminatory manner when

deciding what events will or won’t be allowed at the Fairgrounds. When an event is

proposed at the High Desert Event Center, every promoter must demonstrate the ability

to meet or exceed stringent terms and conditions before the event is allowed,

especially public safety.

 

The promoters of Chalice California have done this and planned an event that is

regulated, legal and responsible. Although this is the first such event Chalice California

has planned at the San Bernardino County Fairgrounds, it is not the first event of its

type to be held in San Bernardino County, in fact this year’s event is the 3rd Annual

Chalice California festival to be held in San Bernardino County. Previous Festivals

were held in San Bernardino at the National Orange Show in 2014 and 2015.

Other events of this type have been held at multiple locations, including the National Orange

Show, and San Manuel Amphitheatre and other locations within San Bernardino County

dating back to 1998.

 

The media routinely covers drug and/or alcohol-related incidents throughout the High

Desert, and there is a plethora of liquor stores, vaping and smoke shops throughout the

High Desert, but Chalice California is an event that will bring a positive perspective to an

issue that people have strong opinions either for or against—medical marijuana.

We urge High Desert residents to not rush to judgment and condemn the Chalice

Festival because of negative held opinions about medical marijuana.

One positive impact for sure will be spending by event-goers at local hotels, restaurants,

gas stations and other venues that will no doubt have a positive effect on our local

economy. To understand the net financial effect of this festival on our community, one

needs only to look at the prices for hotel rooms during the dates of this event, where

rooms are exceeding $500 at some locations, and the cheapest rooms are over $100—

This is just one example of the cash infusion this event will provide to our community,

and we encourage residents to take this into consideration.

 

The public is encouraged to attend our Board of Directors’ meetings held the third

Wednesday of each month at 6:00 p.m. at the Fair Administrative Office at 14800 7th

Street in Victorville. Board agendas can be viewed on the Fair’s website at:
