Support the SF A-Cup Bid!

By Rob Grant | October 1, 2010 | City Hall |

Is it October already? It seems like yesterday that BMW Oracle Racing and USA gave Alinghi 5 a mighty thrashing. But it wasn’t just yesterday, and here we are looking forward to one of the most pivotal moments in the effort to see the match for the 34th America’s Cup come to American waters once again. On Monday, the Board of Supervisor’s Land Use Committee will meet at City Hall, room 263 at 1 p.m. to discuss the term sheet negotiated with BMW Oracle Racing by the Mayor’s office. Come to the meeting to testify in support. In the meantime, write the Mayor’s office and the Board of Supervisors to let them know how important it is that the Cup come here.
