The Pioneer Center for the Performing Arts https://pioneercenter.com/ hosted this years NPC Mother Lode Bodybuilding https://centerpodium.com/npcmotherlode/ competition. One of the first public events since theaters were closed down due to the pandemic. An event that was literally sold out. Which means I didn’t get in to cover the event. The event promoters setup vendor tents outside the venue on the plaza to sell T-shirts, Bathing Suits, and various sundry items.
