3 2018 Scholarship Update At our June meeting, the SJVC-API awarded 30 scholarships to deserving young local students. This was made possible by the continued efforts of our members and the supporting community. I would personally like to thank all of the API volunteers who, throughout the year, have given so much of their time and energy to support and promote our fund raising activities. Without the dedicated efforts of our members and supporters, none of this would be possible. I am including just some of the notes received so far from the scholarship recipients so you can see the true appreciation they have for our efforts. James McClard-Chairman Brian Burt-Committee Member Jimmy Dean-Committee Member Scholarship Committee: I wanted to thank you again for the scholarship I received. The money I received will help tremendously with my tuition and books at CSUB as I begin my studies in Geology. I enjoyed the dinner and getting to meet you all in person. I look forward to seeing you all again in the near future. Austin Melton Dear API Scholarship Committee, Thank you for the very generous scholarship award. This will be a big help in paying for my education at Cal Poly SLO. I was disappointed that I couldn t attend the dinner and see you in person due to my work schedule. I understand that it was a very fun and informative meeting. Would it be possible to obtain a copy of Mr. Ray Clanton s presentation as I hear it was full of great career advice? Sincerely, Jeremy Roberts The SJV Chapter of API meets the third Tuesday of each month at the Bakersfield Petroleum Club. Page 3

Dear API Scholarship Committee, Thank you very much for the generous scholarship award. This will go a long way toward paying my tuition at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. I really enjoyed the meeting.

4 Dear API Scholarship Committee, Thank you very much for the generous scholarship award. This will go a long way toward paying my tuition at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. I really enjoyed the meeting. It looks like the oil industry, though a very serious business, still likes to have a lot of fun. I really appreciated Mr. Clanton s presentation and words of wisdom. Sincerely, Natalie Roberts The SJV Chapter of API meets the third Tuesday of each month at the Bakersfield Petroleum Club. Page 4

A Message From The Chair Dear API members, This is my first message since April and a lot has happened! We had a very successful golf tournament in May and made about $40,000 for the scholarship fund!

5 A Message From The Chair Dear API members, This is my first message since April and a lot has happened! We had a very successful golf tournament in May and made about $40,000 for the scholarship fund! Jim Roberts and Vance Manning co-chaired the event and it turned out great. I would like to thank them and the many volunteers who made it all work out. I also wish to extend a very big thank you to all of the sponsors and vendors at the tournament who provided the great food and beverages at three golf courses. We started that unique tradition many years ago and have seen other tournaments copy it because it adds so much to the day. The food and drink along the way, make the slow play seem a little more bearable. In June we had our annual scholarship awards dinner at the Petroleum Club. It was attended by almost 150 people including 23 scholarship recipients and 57 of their family members. Ray Clanton provided some insight and humor for the students and we thank him for speaking that night. We awarded $80,000 to thirty deserving students and you can see them all on the API Facebook page, in our newsletter, and on our website. James McClard chaired the scholarship committee which included Jimmy Dean and Brian Burt. They did a very good job evaluating the applications and a masterful job presenting the awards at our June meeting. Now it is July and the weather has gotten a bit warmer and the price of Midway-Sunset crude oil has heated up as well. It was over $75 per barrel on June 29and still is today as I write this! That bodes well for the local oil industry as we are seeing some good and increasing activity levels. It is a nice change from And speaking of change, we have another change in store for you this month. After ten years at the Petroleum Club, we will be moving to 1933 Prohibition Club for our monthly general member meetings. We have enjoyed the time at the Petroleum Club and look forward to a very fulfilling time at the new venue at Our first speaker to break us in at 1933 will be Shawn Kerns, CRC Executive Vice President. I am sure he will share some things that we all want to hear. We will also be doing our super raffle to support the Golden Empire Gleaners with our Oil Can Do It food drive. So, come and join us this month at our new location and socialize, dine, support the Gleaners, listen to and question Shawn, and enjoy the company of your fellow API members.
