To the friends and patrons of the Cow Palace:

On May 14 the Governor, while addressing the current budget deficit and upcoming election, indicated, among many other things, that it may be necessary to consider selling certain fairgrounds properties. We are confident that, once given a full examination, the Governor and other leaders will realize that fairgrounds, such as the Del Mar Fair, Orange County Fair, Ventura County Fair, California  Exposition and State Fair and Cow Palace, are too valuable to the communities that they serve to be sold.
