The second annual Tap into Tehama micro brew festival will be held at the Red Bluff River Park Aug. 16. This event will feature local artisans, west coast breweries, Northern Cali- fornia vineyards and a host of local business sponsors. This will be a great oppor- tunity for local businesses and organizations to meet as many as 1,000 people. Last year's participa- tion was tremendous. As participants sampled their way through the many breweries, they shared the experience as a com- munity united in cele- bration. The proceeds of this non-profit event were used to restore the his- toric Oddfellows Lodge in downtown Red Bluff. This year's net proceeds will be used throughout the com- munity by the Chamber of Commerce. The festival stands to double the excitement, with twice as many brew- eries and businesses, food trucks featuring Tehama County ingredients and a following of craft brew en- thusiasts. For more information, go to www.tapintotehama. com or stop by the Cham- ber of Commerce office at the Red Bluff River Park. Farmersmarket Don't forget to come out to the farmers market 5-8 p.m. We'll have lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, ven- dors, crafts and live music by The Wild Card Band. The Chamber's Satur- day Market by the River continues to be a popu- lar spot to find local deli- cious fruits, vegetables and visit merchandise vendors. It is open every Saturday through September from 7:30 a.m. to noon. Renewing members Thank you Red Bluff-Te- hama County Chamber of Commerce renewing mem- bers.

Visitors to Lassen Volca- nic National Park can now go tent camping without having to own, store, pack, set up or take down their own camping equipment, with the park's new Rent- MyTent program, starting July 7. For $67 per night added to the normal $18 per night campsite fee, a tent and ba- sic campground equipment will be set up and waiting on day of arrival and taken down on day of departure. The only restrictions are a two-night minimum stay and reservations made at least four days prior to ar- rival. To arrange this service, first rent a campsite on- line at www.recreation.gov in A or C loops of the Man- zanita Lake Campground. With a reserved campsite confirmation number, go to www.lassenrecreation.com to additionally purchase and schedule the RentMy- Tent package. Upon arrival, a 17'x9' Ad- venture tent large enough to accommodate up to two adults and two children, two heavy-duty steel cots, two camper chairs and a lantern — all produced by the Coleman Company — will be set up and waiting at the reserved campsite. Campers need only bring sleeping bags or bedrolls and cook gear, which are also available for rent at www.lassenrecreation.com. The new program was devised by the National Park Service, the Coleman Company, the National Park Hospitality Association and its member national park concessioners to make it easier for park visitors to experience camping in a national park. California Guest Ser- vices, the authorized con- cessioner for Lassen Volca- nic National Park, will op- erate the program. "It's perfect for the 80 percent of Americans who live in urban areas and might not have enough room to store bulky camp- ing equipment, but who'd like to experience camping in a national park," said Pam Pitts, with CGS.

SIMPSON UNIVERSITY Tickets on sale for business luncheon By Gregory Katz TheAssociatedPress LONDON They are rolling symbols of wealth and ex- cess, starting at $263,000 a pop, with most buyers choosing custom options that can easily double the price. And they are more popular than ever before. Rolls-Royce reported a startling rise in demand for their distinctive cars Tues- day. The British-made cars, updated to reflect the tech- nical know-how and mar- keting might of parent com- pany BMW, have become must-haves for the new global elite. That group is growing in number even as much of the world struggles to get by in an era of low growth, low expectations and high unemployment. The company said 1,968 cars were sold in the first half of this year compared to 1,475 in the same period last year. The 33 percent rise in sales for the first six months of 2014 compared to the same period last year is explained not just by the cars' plush leather seats and gleaming paintwork — those are old standbys for the brand, which used to focus on the British aristoc- racy — but also by the ris- ing number of billionaires worldwide. A Forbes survey says there are 1,645 billionaires in the world, 219 more than a year ago. "If you look at the number of ultra-high net worth in- dividuals around the world, that number is clearly grow- ing," said company spokes- man Andrew Ball. "The luxury market is growing at the high end and we are delighted to be part of that." The phenomenon helps to explain the strong sales of mega-yachts, rare jew- elry and complicated, hand- made Swiss watches. There are more people with more money looking for ways to stand out from the crowd — and in this context, a Rolls becomes a very noticeable statement. Ball said 70 percent of Rolls buyers are new to the brand, and roughly half choose to customize their cars by adding expen- sive personal touches. The cost of making a Rolls "be- spoke" — the British term for custom-made suits — rather than "off the rack" can dwarf many household budgets. "It can be simple, like having your initials stitched into the headrest or the ve- neer," said Ball. "Customers enjoy this. It's an emotional process." It's also a level of con- sumerism that soars as high as London's famous Shard skyscraper: A refrigerator inside the automobile can be custom built to accom- modate the shape and size of the owner's favorite bev- erage — at a cost rivalling a year in a U.S. college. The company is open- ing its first showroom in Cambodia. But it remains an essentially British prod- uct, enjoyed by Queen Eliz- abeth II and evoking the opulence of the Downton Abbey era.
