AGENDA TITLE: Presentation To Winners Of The Year 2000 Steering Committee Place Mat Contest — Track B
MEETING DATE: February 17, 1999
PREPARED BY: City Clerk
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That Mayor Land present gift certificates from Barnes & Noble to the winners
of the Year 2000 Steering Committee Place Mat Contest.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Year 2000 Steering Committee has initiated a series of art contests that
will involve each track at Lodi Unified School District. The submittals are to
depict our community and life in Lodi. The Committee felt this would be a
wonderful way to focus on the City's year of celebration and at the same time
showcase the work of young people from our community.
The winning entries of each of these contests will appear on paper place mats, which will be used in various City
restaurants during this coming year. Some time ago a letter was sent to Lodi restaurants advising them of the
contests and asking if they would be willing to purchase these place mats for use in their restaurants. We received
replies indicating a willingness to purchase over 35,000.
We are pleased to announce the winners of the Track B Contest, who will be present at the February 17, 1999 City
Council meeting to be introduced and to receive their prize. Barnes & Noble have been very generous in working with
us to provide $50 gift certificates to each of the winners.
Listed below are the two winners from Track B. Their winning entries are also attached for your review.
