2024 Bay City Noon Optimist Club Camel Races
Once again it is time for the annual camel races to benefit the youth of the community. Net proceeds in the past have gone to purchase bleachers at the Boys and Girls Club of the Great Lakes Bay Region, River Jordan, Inc., helping youth transition out of foster care, help fund the Play City, a play ground in Veteran Park, built a reindeer corral at the Santa House in Bay City, scholarships and many more programs. So save the date, and consider joining us for an evening of fun, food, drink, and a friendly wager, or two. This event is licensed under the rules of the State of Michigan Lottery Commission.
Cost is $40 per person and includes Dinner, Adult refreshments, Raffles, and a fun Fast Paced Evening
