Clovis is a top-secret competition held at an undisclosed location at an unspecified time every year. There are no age groups, it is more of an elite competition. I think it is the NAPVA Championships or something.

The NAPVA is a top-secret organization that publishes a top-secret newsletter. The only way to find out more is to live in California or to be in Bob Fraley's inner-circle. I don't think Bob Fraley believes in the internet. I recommend picking up a phone or hand writing a letter to contact him. Of course his phone number and address are top-secret too :P

OK that was not serious... but there really is very little information available online about Clovis, the NAPVA, or The Pole Vault Standard. Hopefully some of our guys from CA who have penetrated that inner-circle can tell us more ;)

August 1 (it's a Friday). 5:00. It doubles as the NAPVA Championships. It is held in conjunction with the Clovis Street fair. It's loud and fun.

So far what I have heard is that they are limiting it to 24. If you are older than 24 you are going to have to pay the 300$ NAPVA fee to compete, while making the qualifier. I also know that around July 19 there is going to be a qualifying meet at Los Gatos for the street vault.
ahh San Diego: women, sun , beaches, pole vault, what else do you need.
