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 60,000. We are pleased to announce the winners of the Track C Contest, who will be present at the March 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 winners from Track C, and their winning entries are attached for your review. • Jamee Yang Parklane School 3rd Grade • Nick Baillie Reese School 4th Grade Entries in this contest will be on display in various locations in Lodi during 1999. Also, we are hoping to place a copy of all the winning entries in the City of Lodi time capsule located in the Gateway at School Street and Lodi Avenue. FUNDING: None required. AMRrmp ( Alice M.
