Leonard Pules: X-Fest helps those helping the community
X-Fest generated $1.7 million for our community last year. People who open businesses in the downtown area should know that there might be festivals going on in which could either help or hinder their businesses. I’m a member of the American Outlaws and X-Fest is our biggest fundraiser of the year. The money we raised from last year’s X-Fest enabled us to sponsor three soccer teams in the Modesto Youth Soccer Association and donate over $1,600 to the VFW in Modesto.
I encourage the Modesto City Council to keep X-Fest downtown where it belongs.
Leonard Pules, Modesto
