RUN WHATCHA BRUNG XVII

It was a beautiful day for the Rotary Club's annual car show on Saturday, June 12, 2010.  The event is held in downtown Rialto and includes hundreds of show cars, dozens of vendors, great food, and good music.  Rotarians Jimmy Tatosian from trophy sponsor Burrtec Waste Industries and Ron Zurek from Inland Community Bank (right to left) present the Best of Show trophy to Hank and Judy Meyers in their 1954 Chevrolet Corvette C1 Convertible.  Hank is a cancer survivor and having fun at 80 years old.
