We'd be happy to donate the cakes for the event. We'll need to get more
� specific as the event draws near. We're thinking for 1000 people-that
10 to 12 sheet cakes will work. We could do a"circus cake"for photo
� ops if you'd like- however they are not as easy to cut quickly for the
crowd of people that may show. If you plan to do photos with the city
Mayor, etc- I suggest a three tier circus (sort of like a wedding cake) �
with a big banner that says something like"Happy 150th Birthday San
Luis Obispo". Then at the photo session -the Mayor or?would cut the
cake like they do in weddings. You get the picture...
So I'm including Susie Kelly on this -as she'll be involved with
coordinating the cake order. Let me know if you will be supplying the
plates and forks. We can supply the napkins if you'd like. We can also ,
do a similar set up like at the Amgen event-where we set up our booth
-tent,tables and organize the crew for cutting the cake.
Just let me know what, when and where. .
Thanks,
C.

Connie:
I checked in with a couple of people on the committee and the consensus
is that a very large sheet cake would be easiest to cut and hand out.
We will probably hand out on paper plates with fork. Not sure what a
circus cake is but it sounds fun and elaborate...maybe we could have a
fancier cake for display purposes and super simple sheet cake to hand
out. Deborah Cash thinks it will be very busy with lots of
kids/families because of the firefighters, etc. so she threw out"cake
for 1000"which sounds like way too much to ask from you guys. I think ,
anything you are willing to do to help us out would be super
appreciated. Let us know when you've had a chance to better assess
things.

Hi Donna,
I'm checking into the availability of funds to go toward having a cake
� for the event. To help us better-could you give me an estimate of how
�'� much cake you would need. Would it be sheet cakes or a"circus"cake
like we have done in the past. Sheet cakes are easier to cut and
quicker to hand out. Could this be on plates or napkins. Assume
something like the Amgen cake give away would be the way we'd want to
go. Would that work out?
Again- I'm checking with my office-and if you have time to answer
these questions, I'll do my best to have an answer back to you by the
end of the week.
C.
And- NO! I'm not ready for 115 degree weather. I can barely stand the
heat in the barn as it is. I miss air conditioning. Don't even have it
at the office.

Subject: City's 150th Bday, Sesquicentennial Committee
Connie:
I am on the Sesquicentennial Committee for the City(acting on behalf of
the Chamber) and we are currently planning a celebration of the City's.
15th BDay. Originally we were planning a special event in Mission Plaza
but have since decided to scale down a bit and have the celebration on
Chorro at Farmer's Market on October 12th. The City's committee
virtually has no budget and we've so far scraped together funds for the
production of banners to be installed downtown which will have the
sesquicentennial logo on them. In addition the committee has been
working to enlighten the public about the city's BDay and has encourage
other organizations to use the Sesquicentennial logo and theme at their
events throughout the year.
At our last committee meeting, we were discussing what all we would do
at the celebration in October and all agreed that serving BDay cake to
o the public would be fun and appropriate. This leads me to why I am
emailing you...would Madonna Inn consider donating a cake for this
purpose? Or at the very least, would you consider giving us a really
good deal on one or more and perhaps we can find a business to sponsor
the purchase? You guys do so much for the community and we so
appreciate your donation to the firefighters who are currently using a
garage for restoration of the Seagrave...the firefighters are hoping to
have the Seagrave restored for this event so that it can be on display
that same night as iYs Fire Prevention Week as well.
I can fill you in more on what we are planning that night if you like.
Can you get back to me and let me know your thoughts on this as soon as
you have the chance? Thanks so much and hope you are staying
cool...can't wait for that 115 degree heat at the fair! :) �

»> "June Mclvor" <JMclvorC�sjlmlaw.com>06/14/06 10:48AM »>
Betsy, will you be at the meeting this week? I can't make it but it
looks like Manny Silva of the Native Sons of the Golden West can come
and talk to the group about the wording for the dedication plaque.
Their plan would be to have the plaque made and present it to the city;
it would be up to the city to decide where to put it and install it.
The group may want to discuss whether we are interested in the plaque on
those terms. Personally, I would like to know how much installation
would cost for the city-I might be able to solicit a contribution or two
to make it happen.
Sincerely,
June

HiJune,
I think I might be able to make it. I am supposed to appear on a
preliminary hearing tomorrow at 10 Am and that puts me right in the
neighborhood. My testimony should not take too long. Go ahead and put me
down. There is the slight chance I won't make it if the court trails
the case or one of the Judges is sick and they have too many matters to
hear, but lets go for it anyway and see what happens!
Manny

Manny, it would be great if you could come to a meeting. The next
meeting is this Thursday at noon in the council hearing room at SLO City
Hall. I won't be there this month but if you can make it, I would make
sure that you were on the agenda. IYs a pretty informal group so it
would be a great opportunity.
Let me know if that date works for you.

Hi June,
Okay, at tonighYs Parlor meeting I was assigned to coordinate with the
S.L.O. Sesquicentennial Committee and craft the wording for the N.S.G.W.
dedication plaque.They want it fairly quickly so they can arrange to
have it cast. Do you want me to come to a meeting and we can develop the
words with your group? Lemme know!

Hi June,
I don't think we would pay for installation of a plaque. I think that would be up to the city. My
understanding is that the Parlor pays for half the cost of the plaque [$300.00] and NSGW pays the other
half. They send dignitaries from H.Q. to present the dedication. The person to query is our Past Parlor
President, Sid Marques. He is an old hand at this and can better fill you in. Plus, he just went to Grand
Parlor at Tahoe last week and was going to discuss this plaque idea with them, so he should know more.
You can reach him at 543-5460. Let me know if I can do anything else for you.
Regards, �
Manny

Hi Betsy...l thought I'd drop you a quick email and bring you up to date on
our latest news. We'll be kicking off our event with our association on
April 24th...which is a Monday. Which basically means we'll be delivering
the pedal truck fire engines to the various banks where they'll be on
display, along with the tickets and the ticket collection jars. On April
25th, at our MLS Marketing Meeting,the Fire Dept. will be joining us and
promoting the Save the Seagrave fundraiser and we'll begin sales of raffle
tickets to our association members.We want to have our members and the
banks educated about the event so that when May rolls around...our
membership will be on top of it.Around this same time...flyer distribution
will begin. We'll have flyers in our newsletter...and being distributed
around town. We are on a waiting list for a soapbox spot for the April 27
Good Morning SLO Breakfast.
May 1 we will begin massive sales "encouragemenY'...throughout the banks and
with our volunteer sales people...and going on throughout the month of May.
As we could only obtain one day per quarter to sell raffle tickets downtown
at Farmer's Market...we have chosen May 18th to do this. We'll have our
banner, a table, one of the cars (the fancy one!), a large poster describing
the event, tickets for sale, etc. As we'll be positioned with the firemen on
Chorro/Higuera...they will be helping us sell tickets!
On June 1, 2006 we'll hold the drawing for the 7 pedal cars. Hopefully we'll
have some local dignitaries on hand for the drawing.Around the first of
� May...l will prepare a letter to send to the Mayor, and anyone else that you
think would be a good choice to have on hand...requesting their
presence...and possibly picking the winning tickets????
We are so grateful for the support of the Committee's public relations
machine! Donna Lewis has kept us informed and has been a valuable asset to
us...as I'm sure she has been to you!
In closing...if there is anything else you need...please do not hesitate to
contact me...We are very excited about the project...and eager to get it
under way!
Thanks Betsy!

three banners]given that PG&E told you they would contribute only $3000.
Any more information from Debra??? I will be in LA next week and not at the

As soon as you know the day of the drawing and the circumstances, please let me know and I will work on
scheduling the Mayor or other dignitary to help out.
Again, thank you (and slo realtors)for your participation in the Sesquicentennial Celebration.

June,
This is in response to your inquiry about the NSGW's next meeting. Please see the following e-mail from
Manny. This group is a lot of fun. If the special Council meeting scheduled for March 14th were for some
reason cancelled, I'd love to do this. But I don't think that will happen, so I 'm hoping you or Betsy can
respond to Manny with the name of someone who can attend the meeting.
Thanks,
Audrey

Hi Audrey,
The next NSGW dinner/meeting will be held on Tuesday, March 14th at the IOOF Hall on Dana Street,
S.L.O. Dinner is $7.00 per person and is usually served about 6:00 PM. The business meeting is closed
to members only, but I think it would be great if someone(s)could come by, 6ring some flyers and say a
few words after dinner about the S.L.O. Sesquicentennial. If you can let me know who all wants to attend
I'll notify the Executive Committee.
Just FYI; NSGW is not a service club, but a fraternity. Membership is$30.00 a year with no dues. We do
have a charity for Cleft Palate and a Historical Preservation Foundation which helps fund HP programs.
�
Hope to see you there!
Manny

City of SLO Plans Year-Long Celebration of 150th Birthday!
G In 1856, a dusty mission town on California's
Central Coast was incorporated.Today, the City
of San Luis Obispo serves as the commercial, governmental and cultural hub of San Luis Obispo County.
To celebrate the 150-year anniversary, or Sesquicentennial, a group of local leaders is joining with City
staff to plan a 10-month celebration in 2006, culminating in a grand event planned for October. For more
information on the Sesquicentennial or to participate in the celebration, contact Betsy Kiser at (805) 781-

Good morning, June,
What beautiful day it was a Morro Bay yesterday!
Okay-the room was packed -there were at least, I'm sure, 70+folks in attendance. (Don't know how
many the room seats.)
Manny spoke for almost two hours and I spoke for about five minutes ... but the information was well-
received. I distributed the outreach packet to, including a list of the theme committees and the brochure
regarding the Seagrave.
I also had a poster made of Pierre's logo- iYs really quite lovely- 18 x 24-and displayed it for all to see.
It's in my office if you folks would like to use it. I think I may also display it in the Council Chamber on
meeting nights.
Manny is going to e-mail me the next meeting date for the Native Sons of the Golden West and invite
someone to the group to speak to these folks. (This is another group I think iYd be fun to speak to, but
they usually meet on a Tuesday evening when there's a Council meeting. I'll give you all a heads up as
soon as I get the date.)
Hope we get some interest from yesterday's meeting.

As a long time resident and business in San Luis Obispo and as a candidate for the office of mayor, I
am interested in taking part in the organization and planning of the aniversary celebration. Please put me
on the e-mail list for contact. In the past I have participated in some of the behind the scenes work for La
Fiesta and would be interested in helping my community to celebrate this milestone. We need to
remember where out roots are in this town because our unique character is being threatened by pressues

you'll let me know when your next Sesquicentennial committee general meeting is I'll attend and we can
discuss it further. �

Leslie,
I am always cautious when answering questions so quickly and with so much going on right now,thaYs
exactly what I'm doing.
Here's a copy of the decal, which is now on the sides of all of the public works vehicles.
Also, here's the minutes from the January 19th meeting.
Hope they help. I'll be in for a while tomorrow, but don't know my hours, so you may want to call 781-7100
if you need to talk to someone further. If I'm here or reach-able I'll try to help.

Subject: Sesquicentennial Committee Speaker Needed
Dear Steering Committee:
Manny Silva of the Native Sons of the Golden West has requested that
someone from the Sesquicentennial committee speak briefly at the lecture
he is giving at the Morro Bay Natural History Museum this Monday,
January 20 at 10 am. A brief description of his lecture is below--as
you can see, it is very appropriate to our mission! Please let me know
if you can spare a few minutes to do this.
Thank you very much!

The Bloody Fifties: Law and Order in Early San Luis Obispo County
Feb. 20, 2006 10:15AM - Noon
We all know San Luis Obispo as a peaceful place to live, but such wasn't
always the case! The first decade of the county's existence was quite
lawless, and violence was commonplace. Come hear the history of early
county lawmen, the infamous Jack Powers Gang, and the San Luis Obispo
Vigilance Committee. Firearms and other implements of the period will be
displayed and explained.
Biography: Manny Silva is Historical Preservation Committee Chairman,
Native Sons of the Golden West Parlor Number 290, San Luis Obispo. A
native of San Luis Obispo, he became interested in local Outlaw-Lawman
folklore at a young age. He is a career'peace officer and resides in Los
Osos with his wife Kim, and daughters Kaysha, Lauren, and Erin.

June,
I just don't think this opportunity to talk to a group should be missed - hope someone who is a bit more
comfortable than I am comes forward, but if not,call me at:
Home: 805-462-8852
Cell: 459-2966
I am not sure my e-mail will be working at home, I just moved-so a phone call will work best. I just need
to know specifically the name of the contact person, where and what time ...
I'm off tomorrow, but may stop by the office in the a.m.
If I go, do you think I should take copies of the outreach packet, or do you think they plan to print them ... I
think I heard you say you sent them to him.
Thanks -and ttianks for chairing the meeting today. You do a great job!

Betsy, For the SLO County Band, I am a little surprised that we haven't heard any more about the 150th
anniversary planning or schedule: Is there going to any more centralized direction/organization or are
organizations just doing their own thing? (or maybe both?) For info, we are asking the city Recreation
Dept if it would be ok to use the Mitchell Park bandshell for our weekly rehearsals on Thursday nights
duing part of the summer, and, if we get that organized, will advertise it as a 150th Anniversary event.

because the City insisted that it be a community-wide celebration, coordinated by the community rather
than the City. We are an active part, but not the main organizers. Consequently, January arrived before
all the ducks were in order, so I'm not surprised that the first month's theme was not well publicized. We
are hopeful the celebration will gain momentum now that we are more organized. Your involvement will
help. Thanks.

H i Betsy,
Just to follow-up, below is the link for the 1850's SLOCO history talk I am giving at the Morro Bay Natural
History Museum "Mindwalks" program on 02/20/2006. Hopefully it will pique some folk's interest in our
county's history, and especially SLO's upcoming Sesquicentennial.
That would be great if June Mclvor could attend. It would be a good opportunity to plug the upcoming
S.L.O. Sesquicentennial events and maybe even recruit some volunteers.
Membership in the San Luis Obispo Parlor#290, Native Sons of the Golden West. is currently at about
200 members and growing. Many of the members belong to founding families and they are a great
source of information. The Parlor also has in its possession some very nice albums with early photo's and
old S.L.O. newspaper clippings.
Incidentally, the N.S.G.W. Grand Parlor will be held at Embassy Suites in SLO in 2007. I've included the
N.S.G.W. link below also.

Also, have you, or are you planning to, put together any PR presentation

We are planning on getting letters and packets out to the groups on the

Hi Betsy
Read about your special 150 year celebration. I just finished as program
coordinator for our Centennial and the year long celebration. (We are a
teenager compared to your City!)
Say, are you offering any opportunities for local non-profits to be
included in activities? I am on the board of one and we'd like to plan
some events with a Sesquicentennial theme. Didn't know if you had a
community calendar we could join or how we could coordinate and
participate. Are we allowed to use the logo? In Santa Maria we allowed
non-profits to use the logo on letterhead, ads,flyers etc. and then we
listed their events in our calendar of events on the City website and in
handouts. I'll attach what we did as reference. Any advice is
appreciated.

Hello Elizabeth,
I got your name�nfo out of the NATOA directory and hope this reaches
you. Redondo Beach is the "finish stage"on the Tour of California
bike race route. As you know, ESPN2 is giving each stage City a
30-second spot that will run on the day the race is in their City.
We have little experience with commercial spots, and just wondered if
you have a script outlined for your spot, and would you mind sharing it
as an example for our City? (We promise not to copy you:)
Thanks for any help you can provide,

From: Audrey Hooper
• To: juneCssblaw.com
Date: 1/5/06 3:19PM
Subject: City Activities re Sesquicentennial
As promised after our discussion this morning,following are some of the ways the City is promoting the
Sesquicentennial: �
1. The January employee newsletter contained an article by CAO Hampian on the Sesquicentennial,
displayed the logo, discussing the themes and the plans of the Sesquicentennial Committee, and asking
employees to submit ideas on how to celebrate or related stories.
2. Department Heads were provided with copies of the logo. The logo has also been made available to
all employees and staff was encouraged to begin using it on documents and powerpoints and in other
ways that would draw attention to the City's anniversary.
3. The Police Department has designed badges with the sesquicentennial theme and these will be
available for purchase by police personnel.
4. City staff will be using letterhead with the logo on it.
5. The City Clerk's office is developing the annual advisory body recognition event with a sesquicentennial
theme in mind.
6. Plans have just commenced for a Community Academy later this year and the theme will be
incorporated into this program.
O 7. Finally,the City's Community Relations Team has taken on the role of coordinating Sesquicentennial
activities. They are doing the following:
a. Ensuring that new slides going out on Channel 20 from their departments contain the logo.
b. Preparing videos of walking tours that discuss the history of SLO to be broadcast on Channel 20.
c. Working with a community member on a slide presentation of the Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa.
d. Coordinating with the employees'chapter of the NMA (National Management Association) to change
the display case in the City Hall Rotunda to reflect the month.ly sesquicentennial themes.
e. Working with staff in their own departments to implement other ideas promoting the event.
I am hoping I haven't missed anything we've been doing to date. I'll keep you posted as things arise.

Date: 1/5/06 1:56PM
Subject: Message Board, City's Web Page and Minutes
After speaking to Tracy this morning, I spoke with Admin and, unfortunately, because of staffing
transitions in the CAO's office, the City is unable to sponsor a message board for the sesquicentennial.
However, we can do a �ink to the message board - if established -from the City's website.
Pat, I'd like to suggest that maybe a historical association in the City would be a good organization to
sponsor the message board. Are you willing to look into this possibility-since the Sesquicentennial is a
historical event????
The CAO's office will be setting up a link on the splash page for the Sesquicentennial and the first thing
that will go on it will be the press release that I passed out to our Theme Committee. But I have found out
today that the press release is not quite complete. As soon as it is, our CAO reps on the committee will
get it onto the web page.
As soon as I receive the trivia questions, we can get those onto the web page as well.
When the minutes are prepared for the Theme Committee's last meeting, it might be a good idea to add a
parenthetical note that we confirmed that the City cannot do the message board ... but whatever you folks
think is fine with me.

Subject: SLO 150th anniversary/SLO C ounty Band
Hi, My name is Bob Grosse and, in addition to teaching in the business school at CalPoly, I am a long
time resident of SLO (26 yrs) and the Publicity Director for the SLO County Band. I saw the news articles
about the 150th anniversary in The Tribune this morning and can't be at the meeting tonight due to a
church meeting conflict but want to offer the SLO County Band for use during the observation.
If you are not familiar with us, the SLO County Band has been around for 131 of the 150 years--founded in
1874 as "The SLO Military Band" --and has been providing music for community and patriotic events ever
since. We are a community band--John Philip Sousa and all that--with about 40 members from all around
the County. We have a paid Director but otherwise are a volunteer organization.
Suggestions for the 150th Celebration: How about a series of musical events spotlighting some of the
historical buildings in the city-Jack House, Mission, Carnegie Library, Fremont Theater, Dallaidet (?)
adobe, etc? These could be outdoors and free to the pubic with local musical groups and a few historical
speeches by prominent city people--too bad Alex Madonna isn't still around. OI, if there is are some BBQ
dinnner or lunch celebrations, we could provide some band music for them--places like Mitchell Park or
Santa Rosa Park come to mind. Or, if nothing else,the Band could do a series of Sunday Afternoon in
the Park concerts with city sponsorship for publicity and minor logistic support (like renting chairs and a
PA system.)
Anyway, sounds like a great year coming up--please count us in!
Thanks,
� Bob Grosse

Dear Betsy and Kendi, I was tapped for the Sesquicentennial Planning
Committee in my former position as Executive Director of the SLO County Arts
Council. I resigned my position there in late October but was asked by
Betsy to stay on this committee as a private citizen. I just received the
relevant emails at my home office about the planning. Seems to be going
well! I will attend the community meeting on Thursday and help out in some
way. Please let me know where help may be needed. I do non profit
fundraising, event planning and consulting and know many folks in the
community so my experience might be of use.
Here is the key information on me:

A few things on the sesquicentennial...
1.) I am attaching the Press Release-will you make edits and we will send it out;
2.) Pierre Kascinta, KSBY reporter, would like to do a story on Thursday, 11/17 to encourage community
members to attend the meeting. This will be a Daybreak spot and it will be live. My idea is to have 1-2
people from the Committee there to be interviewed. I will be on hand to organize and make sure everyone
is settled.
What do you think?

Re: City of San Luis Obispo's Sesquicentennial Celebration
To: Community organizations and members:
In 2006, the City of San Luis Obispo will be celebrating the sesquicentennial (150 years)
anniversazy of its incorporation. A steering committee of local citizens and City staff has
been formed to help organize a ten month long celebration, culminating in October 2006.
The committee is excited about this opportunity for the community to join together to
recognize our history and all that makes San Luis Obispo special. ,
We would like to invite you to attend a public meeting to discuss ways that you or your
organization can become part of the celebration. Our hope is that local groups will either
��� consider creating special Sesquicentennial Celebration events, or incorporate the
�� Sesquicentennial into some of their regularly planned events. We would like to share
, more of our vision with you when we meet.
The meeting will be held on:
Thursday,November 17,2005
Ludwick Community Center
864 Santa Rosa at Mill Street
5:00 p.m.-6:30 p.m.
Please don't miss this oppoRunity to create a new piece of community history, while
celebrating our past. RSVP to me at kroot@calpolv.edu or call 805-756-5113.

City of San Luis Obispo
Sesquicentennial Celebration
1856 — 2006
In 1856, a dusty mission town on California's Central Coast was incorporated and
today, the City of San Luis Obispo serves as the commercial, governmental, and cultural
hub of San Luis Obispo County. To celebrate the 150 year anniversary, or
Sesquicentennial, a group of local leaders is joining with City staff to plan a 10 month
celebration in 2006, culminating in a grand event planned for October.
�
The Sesquicentennial Celebration Steering Committee is asking community
organizations to get involved by adding the Sesquicentennial theme to existing activities
or events that you are planning for 2006 or to create a new event to specifically celebrate
the 150th anniversary of our City. This is a community event—make it your event by
participating in a way that is meaningful to your organization. There are no hard-fast
rules and creativity is encouragedf Think about how your organization has contributed to
the development of San Luis Obispo through the years or what your group's activities
would have looked like 150 years ago.
The Steering Committee is offering the following resources to help:
• a special commemorative logo that can be used in connection with themed
activities or events,
• conduit to organizations knowledgeable about various historical aspects of the
City,
��
� �
U.
• inclusion in information to local media outlets on Sesquicentennial events and on
the Sesquicentennial website, and
� ' • information on fundraising opportunities through Sesquicentennial promotional
items.
We are also looking for community organizations to organize, host, participate in,
and sponsor the gra.nd finale event, currently scheduled for October 21, 2006, in Mission
Plaza. This will be a community-wide event that will bring together all segments of San
Luis Obispo to celebrate what makes our city special.
For more information or to let us know about your organization's plan to
celebrate and take part in the Sesquicentennial activities, please contact June McIvor at
541-2800 or Bill Pyper at 489-0661 x105.
Join us in celebrating the City of San Luis Obispo! We look forward to hearing
your thoughts and ideas.

�-�
The following standards apply for all media of communication, including the Web, print

Betsy Kiser, bkiser(cr�,slocit,y.org
805-781-7151
Color:
The symbol is designed to be reproduced in either black and white or full color process
printing. No versions for 2 or 3 color reproduction were designed.
--- Size:
The master files can be enlarged or reduced for a11 applications from ballpoint pens to

Re: City of San Luis Obispo's Sesquicentennia] Celebration
To: Community organizations and members:
In 2006, the City of San Luis Obispo will be celebrating the sesquicentennial (150 years)
anniversary of its incorporation. A steering committee of local citizens and City staff has
been formed to help organize a ten month long celebration, culminating in October 2006.
The committee is excited about this opportunity for the community to join together to
recognize our history and all that makes San Luis Obispo special.
We would like to invite you to attend a public meeting to discuss ways that you or your
organization can become part of the celebration. Our hope is that local groups will either
consider creating special Sesc�uicentennial Celebration events, or incorporate the
Sesquicentennial into some of their regularly planned events. We would like to share
more of our vision with you when we meet.
The meeting will be held on:
Thursday, November 17, 2005
Ludwick Community Centcr
864 Santa Rosa at Mill Street
5:00 p.m.—6:30 p.m.
Please don't miss this opportunity to create a new piece of community liistory, while
celebrating our past. RSVP to me at krootC�calpoly.edu or call 805-756-5113.
Sincerely,
k�''r\�t ��-Z•-{—

June-
Here are some more ideas that we hope will be implemented by the Fire Department. At this time, these
are just ideas. This is just verification that City staff is taking the Sesquicentennial seriously???
»>John Callahan 01/05/06 08:21 PM »>
This year of 2006, our City will celebrate 150 years of Cityhood, our Sesquicentennial. San Luis Obispo is
one of California's oldest communities. Our town began with the founding of Mission San Luis Obispo de
Tolosa in 1772 by Father Junipero Serra, the fifth mission in the California chain of 21 missions. California
became a State in 1850. The City of San Luis Obispo was incorporated in 1856 as a General Law City,
and became a Charter City in 1876. Our City has a rich history in arts, culture, architecture, agriculture,
education, environment,transportation and much more.
The City plans to celebrate our Sesquicentennial with a variety of events to be held throughout the year.
We hope to also have a grande finale event in October 2006,to be organized by a local community group.
As a City Department, we will want to incorporate the sesquicentennial theme into events we are already
planning to do during the year.We have a special logo already developed, in an electronic format
(attached). We also want to focus on promoting the Fire Department's history. Many suggestions have
been made in recent weeks about the Fire Department's participation in the Sesquicentennial celebration.
Fire Department Ideas:
v 1. Create a retro 1856 firefighter badge to be worn in 2006.
2. Run a series of articles in the local newspapers about the history of our Fire Department.
3. Retake the Chemical Wagon photo, posing the same way as the original one taken (with the then brand
new Chemical Wagon) in April, 1906. Each shift could pose for a shift photo on the wagon. Hopefully Dan
Wunsch can bring down his horses.
4. Get our old Fire Department photos properly archived.
5. Matt Callahan is working on getting our William Randolf Hearst horse team harnesses, and some
Steamer antiques.
6. Have new leather traditional helmet shields made for our current helmets similar to the one on our
Retirement Board (upstairs at Fire Station #1).
7. Restore the 1923 Seagrave Fire Engine. This could possibly be a City/Association/Cal Poly/private
restoration project.The Association has restored the 1906 Seagrave Chemical Wagon, and the City/Bill
Dugger restored the 1941 Mack Fire Engine. It would be a perfect fit to restore the 1923 Seagrave Fire
Engine.The Association also owns a 1928 Seagrave Fire Engine (not original to the City)that can be used
for parts. This could be our most significant project in the Sesquicentennial celebration. We hope to get
some financial help for this project through National Heritage grant money. Furthermore,the precedent
was set at the City's 100th anniversary(in 1956) with the Association's restoration of the 1906 Chemical
Wagon being completed that year.
o We welcome all ides for Sesquicentennial projects. We are forming a Fire Department Sesquicentennial
Committee with interested participants to help in the planning process. Please advise me or Matt or Molly

Subject: Re: 150th Celebration
Mary, A couple of questions:
1. When did you release the press release to the media?
2. Also, in looking at the attached release (page 2),the "fill in the blank" section is still there rather than
the proposed activities. Is this the final that was sent? If you have a different copy, can you send it to me
so we can put it on our splash page.
3. I gave a PR sub-committee report today and we discussed the idea of running releases by the sub-
committee prior to release. What the full committee decided was to a) use the release format that you are
developing for all releases, but b) instead of using us as the clearinghouse, they will cc us on the releases
so we have an overall picuture of what PR is being done.
4.We talked about developing a protocol for using the logo to go out with the press releases? Did you do
that? If so, can you send me what you used and that way the protocol can be included in the outreach
packets. If you didn't, let me know if you have any thoughts on it and I'll put something together for the
next meeting (which is two weeks from today, at noon.)
Call me if you have any questions. Thanks.
Also,
»> Mary Verdin <maryC�verdinmarketing.com>01/05/06 10:39AM »>
• Here is the info I sent to the media(Tribune, New Times, Pac Biz Times, all
radio and KSBY). Note: Centurama logo was sent only to the Tribune.
I have made copies of this for the meeting today. I will be there but close
to 12:30, as I'm coming from a meeting at 11 am in South County.

Subject: City Activities re Sesquicentennial
As promised after our discussion this morning, following are some of the ways the City is promoting the
Sesquicentennial:
1. The January employee newsletter contained an article by CAO Hampian on the Sesquicentennial,
displayed the logo, discussing the themes and the plans of the Sesquicentennial Committee, and asking
employees to submit ideas on how to celebrate or related stories.
2. Department Heads were provided with copies of the logo. The logo has also been made available to
all employees and staff was encouraged to begin using it on documents and powerpoints and in other
ways that would draw attention to the City's anniversary.
3. The Police Department has designed badges with the sesquicentennial theme and these will be
available for purchase by police personnel.
4. City staff will be using letterhead with the logo on it.
5. The City Clerk's office is developing the annual advisory body recognition event with a sesquicentennial
theme in mind.
6. Plans have just commenced for a Community Academy later this year and the theme will be
incorporated into this program.
O 7. Finally, the City's Community Relations Team has taken on the role of coordinating Sesquicentennial
activities. They are doing the following:
a. Ensuring that new slides going out on Channel 20 from their departments contain the logo.
b. Preparing videos of walking tours that discuss the history of SLO to be broadcast on Channel 20.
c. Working with a community member on a slide presentation of the Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa.
d. Coordinating with the employees'chapter of the NMA (National Management Association)to change
the display case in the City Hall Rotunda to reflect the monthly sesquicentennial themes.
e. Working with staff in their own departments to implement other ideas promoting the event.
I am hoping I haven't missed anything we've been doing to date. I'll keep you posted as things arise.

The CRT is being asked to facilitate a number of aspects of the Sesquicentennial

Community Steea�ing Committee's plans for this celebration and to discuss the roles the
CRT will play.
1. Status of Steering Committee's efforts on behalf of the Sesquicentennial - Wendy
• Wendy discussed the efforts of the Community Steering Committee and the various
responsibilities of its subcommittees.
• The Community Steering Committee agreed that the Sesquicentennial
Celebration should span ten months (January through October), with a
culminating event in October. (The date and type of event in October are yet
to be detee�mined.)
• The Corrimunity Steering Committee agreed that each month should be
assigned a theme. (Articles will be written by SLO County Journal to
coincide with the rnonthly themes and the themes will be taken into
consideration as organizations/associat�ons/businesses incorporate the year
of the sesquicentenniafl into their events.) The themes are:

Larry,
I'm going to attend a steering committee meeting today. Know you're busy, but just wanted to confirm that
I heard you correctly yesterday-approximately 100 decals have now been affixed to City vehicles???
Does this cover the entire fleet?
Were you going to send me a photo of the decal on one of the vehicles or not ... not necessary ...
Thanks.

Dear Steering Committee Members:
Attached please find a database of the groups that the Community
Outreach Subcommittee will be sending letters to this week. If you have
a good relationship with a group on this list, please let the noted
Community Outreach person know so that the approach can be coordinated.
You might even find your name already next to a group. If so, we'll be
contacting you this week.
If there are groups that you think we should be contacting, or that you
would like to contact, that aren't on here, please let me know. The
Community Outreach Packet, in its final form, is attached for your use
in contacting additional groups. Just keep us in the loop to avoid
duplication of efforts.
We can't do it all ourselves so please make an effort to spread the word
and persuade community groups to get involved. Thanks for your help!

City of San Luis Obispo
Sesquicentennial Celebration
1856 — 2006
In 1856, a dusty mission town on California's Central Coast was incorporated and
today, the City of San Luis Obispo serves as the commercial, governmental, and cultural
hub of San Luis Obispo County. To celebrate the 150 year anniversary, or
Sesquicentennial, a group of local leaders is joining with City staff to plan a 10 month
celebration in 2006, culminating in a grand event planned for October.
The Sesquicentennial Celebration Steering Committee is asking community
organizations to get involved by adding the Sesquicentennial theme to existing activities
or everits that you are planning for 2006 or to create a new event to specifically celebrate
the 150th anniversary of our City. This is a community event—make it your event by
participating in a way that is meaningful to your organization. There are no hard-fast
rules and creativity is encouraged! Think about how your organization has contributed to
the development of San Luis Obispo through the years or what your group's activities
would have looked like 150 years ago.
The Steering Committee is offering the following resources to help:
• a special commemorative logo that can be used in connection with themed
activities or events,
• conduit to organizations knowledgeable about various historical aspects of the
City,
. � � � � _ - J
• inclusion in information to local media outlets on Sesquicentennial events and on
the Sesquicentennial website, and
• information on fundraising opportunities through Sesquicentennial promotional
items.
We are also looking for community organizations to organize, host, participate in,
and sponsor the grand finale event, cunently scheduled for October 21, 2006, in Mission
Plaza. This will be a community-wide event that will bring together all segments of San
Luis Obispo to celebrate what makes our city special.
For more information or to let us know about your organization's plan to
celebrate and take part in the Sesquicentennial activities, please contact June McIvor at
541-2800 or Bill Pyper at 489-0661 x105.
Join us in celebrating the City of San Luis Obispo! We look forward to hearing
your thoughts and ideas.
Sincerely,
Steering Committee

I guess you didn't receive a copy of my Jan. 11 email about Steve Zegar and a separate company--The Green Bus
Service.
Zegar had his taxi and buses in a lower level garage on Chorro, across the street from the front of the Old Mission.
Here it is again:
Molly: Here's three name corrections and additions.
Ron Clarke(SLOCHS)
Anita Garcia(SLOCHS Board member at 95)
Gerard Parsons (San Luis Mill & Lumber) 4th generation native, founder/builder of San Luis Yacht Club.
Steve Zegar had a taxi and bus service that took Wm R. Heaxst's guests from the train depot to Hearst Castle.
The Green Bus Service, at 411 Foothill, (Ph: LI 3-1414), served San Luis during the 40's and 50's that I know of.
*1956 phone book.
The Greyhound Bus Depot (&Post Restaurant)was at 1009 Monterey St. They could park six buses under their drive-
thru building.
Here's a book on Zegar's taxi service to Hearst Castle

Audrey, I think Kim should plan to be there, but by way of this email, I'm letting June know about it to,
since she is the outreach chair. Maybe she or one of her committee members would like to do some
"outreaching".
June-Are you available and willing? If not, do you have someone who is?

Kim Walkerjust called and left a voice mail message that she has a spot on the CLEAR Channel
tomorrow at 11:00 a.m. She said she is willing to talk about the Sesquicentennial if we think iYs a good
idea-and/or we can arrange for someone else to join her.
Are either one of you free to do that tomorrow? We could also see if someone else from the Committee is
free to meet with Kim and the radio station, but time is really short and Kim is gone today so it could be a
push.
What are your thoughts. I need to call and leave Kim a voice mail message.
Thanks.

City of San Luis Obispo
Sesquicentennial Celebration
1856 — 2006
In 1856, a dusty mission town on California's Central Coast was incorporated and
today, the City of San Luis Obispo serves as the commercial, governmental, and cultural
hub of San Luis Obispo County. To celebrate the 150 year anniversary, or
Sesquicentenriial, a group of local leaders is joining with City staff to plan a 10 month
celebration in 2006, culminating in a grand event planned for October.
The Sesquicentennial Celebration Steering Committee is asking community
organizations to get involved by adding the Sesquicentennial theme to existing activities
or eve�zts that you are planninj for 2006 or to create a new event to specifically celebrate
the 150th anniversary of our City. This is a community event—make it your event by
participating in a way that is meaningful to your organization. There are no hard-fast
rules and creativity is encouraged! Think about how your organization has contributed to
the development of San Luis Obispo through the years or what your group's activities
would have looked like 150 years ago.
The Steering Committee is offering the following resources to help:
• a special commemorative logo that can be used in connection with themed
activities or events,
• conduit to organizations knowledgeable about various historical aspects of the
City,
� ,� '� ;:;'°='r++
�
i�+.
. ';��°��� � -• .
• inclusion in information to local media outlets on Sesquicentennial events and on
the Sesquicentennial website, and
• information on fundraising opportunities through Sesquicentennial promotional
items.
We are also looking for community organizations to organize, host, participate in,
and sponsor the grand �nale event in October. This will be a community-wide event that
will bring together all segments of San Luis Obispo to celebrate what makes our city
special.
For more information or to let us know about yoasr organization's plan to
celebrate and take part in the Sesquicentennial activities, please contact June McIvor at
541-2800 or Bill Pyper at 489-0661 x105.
Join acs ifa celebrating the City of Sa�a Lui.s Obispo! We look fonvard to hearing
your thoughts and ideas.
Sincerely,
Steering Comrnittee

Sesquicentennial Logo Usage Guidelines
The following standards apply for all media of communication, including the Web, print
collateral, news articles, event signage, direct mail and promotional items for marketing
the Sesquicentennial Celebration. Appropriate usage and adherence to the following basic
guidelines preserve the visual identity and consistency of the logo.
Digital files
Logotype master digital files are available in multiple formats for both PC and Macintosh
use.
To receive a file via e-mail for your use, contact:
Betsy Kiser, bkiser@slocitv.org
805-781-7151
Color:
The symbol is designed to be reproduced in either black and white or full color process
printing. No versions for 2 or 3 color reproduction were designed.
Size:
The master files can be enlarged or reduced for all applications from ballpoint pens to
street banners.
Restrictions:
The logo must not be reversed from a dark color background. Either the black and white
or color version may be placed upon a dark background or over a photo by using the
"clipped" version, which provides a knock-out mask.
Do not take the logo apart and recombine it in any �vay to create new artwork. No part of
the logo may be changed or re-sized in any way relative to the rest of the logo.
Do not reproduce the logo with a tint or a gradation.
IDo not distort tlie logo by stretching or resizing. If resizing is needed, it should only be

CC: Ferguson,Tracy; Thompson, Patty; Walker, Kim
Molly, Patty and Tracy,
This is wonderful. Thanks very much for stepping forward.
If you would like me to do the minutes, I can do that much.
Regarding the web page, I just talked to Molly and clarified what that means. The "Splash" page is the first page you see when
you click on the City's website. The webpage(at least that's what I call it) is what you link to from the splash page. Only
websters who've had training on the "FrontPage" program can update the actual webpage and only Barbra Ehrbar can update the
Splash page. But Barbra has agreed to set up the webpage and update it as long as we give her what we want to appear on it.
Patty's role, then, in updating it, would be to e-mail the new trivia questions to Barbara, press releases and any other information
that we want included on it regarding the Sesquicentennial. The PR Committee may also provide information for that purpose.
I'll put together a sample "webpage" and maybe each of you could look at it-especially Kim because of her experience with
these kinds of things - make some suggestions and then we'll have Barbara move forward.
Regarding the position of Chair, Molly simply agreed to call the first meeting and chair it-at the prompting of the
Sesquicentennial Committee. She didn't agree to do more. Maybe we do or don't need a chair at our next meeting. I'll try to
pull back a bit now and follow the lead of the committe.lead.
Thanks, again.
Audrey
»> Molly Brown 01/11/06 lO:OlAM »>
Audrey:
Answers to your questions.Tracy, Patty and I just met this morning to discuss your questions.
Patly will update the website.
We think it's a good idea for Betsy to be the main contact on the website.
Tracy will serve as the secondary contact on the website. �
Tracy, Patty and I can create the future trivia questions.
The contact person for June Mc Giver for January and February will be Tracy.
The meeting minutes are great.Thanks. If we need them for future meetings, we can designate the responsible person at the
meeting.

Additional meeting times (after January 18th): we suggest late March and late]une.
We don't think we need an agenda for our next meeting. Our main goals will include a discussion of us writing some press
releases on story ideas for the media and addifional discussion of where to go from here.
Thanks.
»> Audrey Hooper 01/10/06 05:59PM »>
(Pat- the first couple of paragraphs won't really apply to you -they have to do with the City's website, but some of this e-mail
does ...)
Tracy asked a very good question, so I thought I'd direct this e-mail to all of us on the Theme Committee. I know all of us are
feeling ovennrhelmed by our own workloads right now.
It isn't the Theme Committee's responsibility, necessarily, to maintain the City's web page. However, it is the City's responsibility
and since we are the ones that are doing the trivia questions for the web page, and since we're preparing ideas for monthly
themes and possibly press releases, I thought it made sense for one of us to do this. But this may not be the best direction and
that's why I'd like your feedback. So, please, I'm just one person on the this committee, let me know what each one of you
thinks.
If you are not a webster and/or none of you has time for this task,just let me know. I am willing to talk to Shelly and Betsy since
they're on the PR Committee and/or possibly take on this task in my department if no one else comes forward to do this. I don't
think this will take a great deal of time.
Regarding the trivia questions, I'm not looking for a contact person on our website for that purpose alone. I'm looking for a
contact person for the website in general - I am going to talk to Betsy Kiser and see if she'll be that contact. However,Tracy, we
may use two e-mail addresses, Betsy's for general information and yours for the trivia questions if you're still willing.
Regarding being the contact person that June McGiver is looking for from each subcommittee. Kim has agreed to be that person
as of the beginning of March. If any of you would like to be that contact person for January and February, let me know by 10
a.m. or I'll offer to be the contact for January and February.
Attached are the "minutes" from our last meeting. Do you folks have any corrections?If I don't hear from everyone by about 10
a.m., I'll go ahead and forward them to Cecilia.They were due today, but I got behind. They're extremely brief cuz none of us
were thinking about minutes when we met.
Maybe we should be thinking about how many more times we'll need to meet. If we are going to need to meet more than one
more time, do you think we need to appoint a Chair at the next meeting and someone to take the minutes?Also, do you think we
should develop a specific agenda for our next meeting to make sure we stay on track?
I don't mean to take the lead, but since we don't have a Chair, I hope you all don't mind if I pose these questions.
Thanks.
Audrey
»> Tracy Ferguson 01/10/06 03:41PM »>
Everyone is on board with the question so I think you can go with it. I'm a little confused as to how the maintenance of the web
page became the responsibility of the monthly theme subcommittee?I would think that would be part of the public relations
committee's responsibility. We can certainly forward our trivia question to them each month.
[ don't mind if you use my e-mail address for the trivia questions. I can report at our meetings if we have had any responses.

Looks good to me! Thanks!!
Also - couple of other items of business -
1. We need minutes from our last meeting and we need to get them to June. I'li try to do a draft this afternoon, keeping them
very simple. May need a votunteer to do these for the next meeting. If I can, I'll send them to you for review before I give them
to her. If I'm too late, will you "trust me"?
2. June needs a contact person from our committee. Do one of you want to volunteer? If not, I can do this, but don't feel a need
to ...
3. Re the City's splash page and web page, I'll meet with Barbara on getting the splash page up and running as soon as you have
all responded regarding the trivia question. However, we'll need two related things:
a. A City contact person/e-mail address should whoever is viewing the web page have a question re the sesquicentennial. (This is
NOT to be a message board, but an opporunity to receive information and respond to questions only.) Do one of you want to
volunteer for that role?
b. Someone with webmaster experience will need to keep the City web page current. Do an�of you have that expertise and are
vou willing to do that? I don't think this task will take much time,just updating the trivia question, posting press releases and
other documents. I'll have to work on something else if not, so I do need to hear from you.
Please take a couple of minutes and respond Thanks, much.
Audrey
If each of you agrees with the trivia question, I'll work with Barbara on the web page.

Looks good to me! Thanks!!
Also - couple of other items of business -
1. We need minutes from our last meeting and we need to get them to June. I'll try to do a draft this aftemoon, keeping them
very simple. May need a volunteer to do these for the next meeting. If I can, I'll send them to you for review before I give them
to her. If I'm too late will you "trust me"?
2. June needs a contact person from our committee. Do one o�ou want to volunteer? If not, I can do this, but don't feel a
need to ...
3. Re the City's splash page and web page, I'll meet with Barbara on getting the splash page up and running as soon as you
have all responded regarding the trivia question. However, we'll need two related things:
a. A City contact person/e-mail address should whoever is viewing the web page have a question re the sesquicentennial. (This
is NOT to be a message board, but an opporunity to receive information and respond to questions only.) Do one of you want to
volunteerfor that role?
b. Someone with webmaster experience will need to keep the City web page current. Do any of vou have that expertise and are
vou willing to do that? I don't think this task will take much time,just updating the trivia question, posting press releases and
other documents. I'll have to work on something else if not, so I do need to hear from you.
Please take a cou�le of minutes and respond todav. Thanks, much.

If each of you agrees with the trivia question, I'll work with Barbara on the web page.

Audrey: I'm busy with trying to get out a magazine by March---before we join friends in Mexico.
But I'm willing to come up with Trivia questions and photographs for the website. The County Museum could also
help in answering questions about the Sesquicentennial, if they aze given the list of events and contacts.

I know all of us are feeling overwhelmed by our own workloads right now.
It isn't the Theme Committee's responsibility,necessarily,to maintain the City's web page. However, it is
the City's responsibility and since we are the ones that are doing the trivia questions for the web page, and
since we're preparing ideas for monthly themes and possibly press releases, I thought it made sense for one
of us to do this. But this may not be the best direction and that's why I'd like your feedback. So,please,
I'm just one person on the this committee, let me know what each one of you thinks.
If you are not a webster andlor none of you has time for this task,just let me l�ow. I am willing to talk
to Shelly and Betsy since they're on the PR Committee andlor possibly take on this task in my department
if no one else comes forward to do this. I don't think this will take a great deal of time.
Regarding the trivia questions, I'm not looking for a contact person on our website for that purpose alone.
I'm looking for a contact person for the website in general- I am going to talk to Betsy Kiser and see if
she'll be that contact. However,Tracy,we may use two e-mail addresses,Betsy's for general information
and yours for the trivia questions if you're still willing.
Regarding being the contact person that June McGiver is looking for from each subcommittee. Kim has
agreed to be that person as of the beginning of March. If any of you would like to be that contact person
for January and February, let me know by 10 a.m. or I'll offer to be the contact for January and February.
Attached are the "minutes" from our last meeting. Do you folks have any corrections? If I don't hear from
everyone by about 10 a.m., I'll go ahead and forward them to Cecilia. They were due today,but I got
behind. They're extremely brief cuz none of us were thinking about minutes when we met.
Maybe we should be thinking about how many more times we'll need to meet. If we are going to need to
meet more than one more time, do you think we need to appoint a Chair at the next meeting and someone
to take the minutes? Also, do you think we should develop a specific agenda for our next meeting to make
sure we stay on track?

Everyone is on board with the question so I think you can go with it.. I'm a little confused as to how the maintenance of the web page became the
responsibility of the monthly theme subcommittee? i would think that would be part of the public relations committee's responsibility. We can certainly
forward our trivia question to them each month.
I don't mind if you use my e-mail address for the trivia questions. I can report at our meetings if we have had any responses.

Date: 1/7/2006 9:30 AM
Subject: Re: Message Board, Expostion Park Raceway
Audrey and everyone: I spoke to Ron Clarke, and he was planning to
upgrade the SLO County Historical Society website. Having a
Sesquicentennial site/link gives him and the Board a reason to get
moving on this right away. He thinks we can do it with soRware.
But we might need professional help if we want to get it up and
running right away. Any recommendations are welcomed.
Regarding that 1923 Exposition Park Raceway, 5-minute DVD movie I
brought by. I overlooked the story on that raceway in the new book
'The Achievers" Edited by Tod Rafferty, put out by the Central Coast
History Foundation. (on sale in downtown bookstores and at the - �
County Museum (Camegie Library). $35. First American Title was a
sponsor.
There are eight pages devoted to Exposition Park Raceway. The
silent film that was filmed there (and in Monterey) is "Sporting
Youth" with Reginald Denny and Laura LaPlante. Here's where you can
buy a small color poster of that movie:

Sesquicentennial Celebration
Monthly Theme Comrraittee Minutes
January 4,2006
Present: Molly Brown, Chair; Tracy Ferguson, Pat O'Daniels, Audrey Hooper, Patty Thompson,
Kim Walker
Citv Website
Tracy Ferguson will investigate to deternune whether the City is able to host a Sesquicentennial
"message board." If the City is unable to host a message board, a community organization will
be sought to do so. A link could then be added to the City's website and/or vice versa.
Audrey Hooper will work with Barbara Ehrbar to add a link on the City's "splash" (front) page to
a Sesquicentennial web page. The "Splash" page will contain the logo, a monthly trivia question
(developed by Patty Thompson and Pat O'Daniels) based on the monthly themes, and a link to
the Sesquicentennial page. The Sesquicentennial page will contain the answer to the monthly
trivia question as well as press releases and other information regarding Sesquicentennial
activities.
Monthlv Themes
A number of ideas were discussed. Because the theme for January is Parks, Recreation and
Tourism, Kim Walker is writing an article for the SLO Countv Journal, as well as press releases.
Kim Walker will prepare a draft timeline and story ideas as discussed at this meeting for further
consideration at the next Monthly Theme Committee meeting.
A number of questions were raised regarding how the Theme Committee will interact with the
Public Relations Committee. These questions will be posed at the meeting of the entire
Sesquicentennial Committee at its meeting on Januazy Sth.
Next MeetinQ
�
The next meeting of the Monthly Theme Committee will be held on January 18, 2006, at 10:00
a.m. at Fire Station One.
� �
P.R. Sub-Committee
The sub-committee met at the Historical Society to develop a public relations plan for the
Sesquicentennial Celebration. After reviewing the May 1956 editions of The Trib, the
PR sub-committee discussed its purpose, scope, and objectives, then developed a strategy
and tasks for accomplishing them. The following information highlights these areas:
Purpose: To create awareness of the Sesquicentennial Celebration and provide a
framework for future PR messaging.
Scope: Immediately get information to the media about the Sesquicentennial. Request
all sub-committees to release news releases via the PR Sub-committee using a format
provided by the PR sub-committee.
Strate�v:
l. Develop a press packet for distribution to all media groups, to include:
a. Introduction to the Sequicentennial Celebration
b. Logo and appropriate uses
c. Themes for the year
d. Information on the Special Event in October
e. Request for a Contact from respective media
f. Information that the Historical Society is available for reseach purposes on
Monday's and Tuesday's with prior arrangement.
2. Develop a media release format for use by other sub-committees.
Tasks:
1. Mary Verdin to develop press package and release asap. She will also make personal
contact with media.
2. Mary to develop release format for distribution at Jan 5 meeting of Steering
Committee.
3. Sub-committee to coordinate with Parks and Recreation to program speakers for 101.3
interview opportunities.
In addition to the release of the press package to the media, January's SLO Journal will
provide the big media splash and should create the awareness needed for other media
groups to join in.

we'll be meeting at Fire Station 1 at 10:30 a.m.
Also, as mentioned, we hope we can do most of our planning at one meeting.
In case you haven't been made aware and want to attend, the Citizens Steering Committee will be meeting at City Hall on

Happy holidays and I look forward to seeing you.

From: Audrey Hooper
To: Brown, Molly; Walker, Kim
Subject: Good News - But-Monthly Theme Committee
First, the good news -I spoke with Betsy and Shelly this morning. The PR Committee has developed a press release and Shelly
has indicated that that is what will go on the splash page in January. So our subcommittee doesn't need to to worry about the
month of January.
Second, I hear that Ron Clark's Board is asking him to represent the historical society for sure. Molly, have you rnntacted Ron
yet about our meeting? If not, and if you want me to I will - but, I did not get a new "appointment"for that meeting. Did you
resend it???? When is that scheduled? I detlined the original one cuz it intertered with another meeting.
Also, I don't think our committee will take a great deal of work-just coming up with some ideas - I bet we won't have to meet
more than once or twice and we can lay out our plans for the year-The PR committee wants us to feed them the ideas we come
up with for themes before those ideas go to the press.
Anyway, don't forget we're meeting with the entire steering mmmittee on 1/5. If there's anyway we could meet for 45 minutes
or so before that day, it sure would be helpful.
I won't do anything more until I hear from you Molly.
Thanks.
Audrey

I just resent the meeting appointment for 10:30am Jan 4th.
If you can invite Ron Clark that would be great. I did contact Pat O'Daniels several days ago about our
meeting. I'll let Pat know of the time change for our Jan 4th meeting.
I apologize for my screw ups with planning this meeting. I don't use the electronic appointment scheduler
much and I had not checked for responses.
ThaYs no problem to meet Jan 5th for 45 minutes before the main steering committee meeting. If you
want all of us there (including me, Kim, Pat, and Ron), can you schedule this one? I'll plan to meet you at
City Hall at 11:15 on Jan 5th.
If you need to contact Pat O'Daniels, iYs best to reach him by email at: ratline(a�charter:net
Thanks Audrey. Again I'm sorry for my mishaps and for missing the meeting we had planned. I'll be off
work through Jan 2nd. I hope you have a nice holiday.

Hello Audrey...
1. I spoke with Tim Olson and he was delighted about f �a_�)U � _ ��b �,��
the prospect of having the Guide on the City channel. �
When you are sure, we will both give signed permission ���,� � �
for its use...and thank you for thinking of us. ,.
��a�1� � �- w; !( � � I-�- ���%
2. The graphic designers for the Guide are: Erin and �
Huc Ambrose at hucerin@fix.net.Telephone number: � t�� �� �`� ��f�"�- � �'�•
(805) 543-4133.They are a super nice family and I a % � • ��__:r -'�1 f�
sure you (and City) will be pleased with any project , �`' -' �`""'� ° ��' �'��
they complete. I hope you will be able to use their
talents.
3. I gave Ron Clarke a Draft copy of San Luis Obispo:
1850-1876 to read. If he brings it to his Board and
they agree, I think this would be a solid contribution
to the celebration. If they approve, he said he'd
bring it to the Committee. In any case, I hope the
monograph could be a combination Historical
Society-City joint venture_(using official logo,
etc.)Publication to coincide with the February 19 date
would be appropriate...although the Town fathers
didn't do much until April!!
I don't know the "politics" of this sort of thing, but
I'm sure some businesses would provide for printing
costs. To be clear, I have no wish to receive any
compensation for a very enjoyable project.
As if you don't have enough to do, I have attached a
Draft copy of the monograph. I hope you will have time
to read it as I appreciate feedback...interest,
length, clarity, etc.
See you soon...and thanks for all your kindness,
JACarotenuti

Good moming,]une,
What beautiful day it was a Morro Bay yesterday!
Okay -the room was packed -there were at least, I'm sure, 70+ folks in attendance. (Don't know how many the room seats.)
Manny spoke for almost two hours and I spoke for about five minutes ... but the information was well-received. I distributed the
outreach packet to, including a list of the theme committees and the brochure regarding the Seagrave.
I also had a poster made of Pierre's logo - it's really quite lovely- 18 x 24 -and displayed it for all to see. It's in my office if you
folks would like to use it. I think I may also display it in the Council Chamber on meeting nights.
Manny is going to e-mail me the next meeting date for the Native Sons of the Golden West and invite someone to the group to
speak to these folks. (This is another group I think it'd be fun to speak to, but they usually meet on a Tuesday evening when
there's a Council meeting. I'll give you all a heads up as soon as I get the date.)
Hope we,get some interest from yesterday's meeting.
Audrey

June and committee members,
In case any of you missed it, here is Dan Krieger's "Times Past" column from Sunday's Tribune.

THE ONCE-LAWLESS LAI�rD OF SLO COUNTY
Dan Krieger
Throughout the 1850s, San Luis Obispo was l:nown as "El Barrio del Tigre"
-- "the town of the wildcat."
Throughout most of the 1850s, our then-tiny mission pueblo had fallen
under the control of a well-or�:iiuzed gang led by Irish immigrant Jackie
Powers and a virulently anti-\Torte Americano band of Californios headed
by Pio Linares and Joaquin Valenzuela.
These bandits literally lived off the fat of the land by stealing the
gold-laden saddle bags of ranchers returning from selling their herds of
cattle and sheep to the hungry niiners of California's Mother Lode.
Between 1852 and 1864, our rc�ion also�vas plagued by both cholera and
typhus epidemics that killed l�::ndreds of people, chiefly destitute
Native Americans.
And yet the rule of law arid orcier has its origii:s in this same decade.
In February 1850, the state Legislature, meeting in San Jose, designated
San Luis Obispo as one of the c:�igina127 coun;:es. On Feb. 19, 1856,
the city of San Luis Obispo in�orporated.
Those two events mark the roo:s of local goverilment for our region. Our
city's celebration of its sesquice�ltennial, its 1�Oth birthday, is

approaching. It's time to reflect on why our most basic public
institutions coalesced during this time of troubtes.
America's founding fathers conceived of government as a necessary
entity, doing those necessary things for the citizenry that they could
not accomplish as individuals. Health, education,public safety and the
security of property were issues delegated to local government
institutions.
Under the terms of the Northwest Ordinances passed by Congress and
authorized by the Articles of Confederation in 1784 and 1787, these
local institutions had to be developed under a r���ion's territorial
status before it could apply for statehood.
The Great Seal of the State of California features an outline of San
Francisco Bay and the Golden Gate Brid�e, tl�� image of a grizzly bear
and the Roman goddess Minerva(Greek: Athena). Minerva was born
full-grown from the mind of Jupiter.
Because of the significance of the Gold Rush, California was born as a
state without ever becoming a territory of the United States. From July
7, 1846, to Dec. 20, 1849, California was for�;�;llly governed by the U.S.
War Department. On Sept. 9, 1850, Califc:z�i�: b�came a state bereft of
the normal organs of local government.
For San Luis Obispo, this meant that the f rst ofCcial creation of
American-style local institutions did not b��i�i u��til February 1850. A
boazd of supervisors, county sheriff and county school system had to be
quickly created. Even though San Luis OUispo ��-as tlie county seat, it
retained the vestiges of the Spanislt- Me�ic�:: ::I�alde (combination of
justice of the peace and mayor) and ayuntamicnto (a town council) system
well until the mid-1850s.
The water supply for the pueblo of San L::is C��:spo ��-as the zanja(ditch)
that had been dug under the supervision of Fr�:;�ciscan Padre Luis Antonio
Martinez in the 1790s, ��-1uch brought w�at�r fro;;� the upper reaches of San
Luis Obispo Creek. As the town gre�v, so c'.i:: ��-,�Ilution of the creek,
whieh led to the epidemics of typhus, choiera :::�1 other water-borne
illnesses.
The sheriff and haphazard local police au�!;o;-:::� ;�ro�c:d totally
ineffectual against crime.
And so in 1856, it was time to create a ci:�,• �;�>�.��-�unent.

San Luis Obispo Celebrates Sesquicentennial
City of SLO Plans Year-Long Celebration of 1 SO`"Birthday
SAN LUIS OBISPO,CA— In 1856, a dusty mission town on California's Central Coast was
incorporated and today, the City of San Luis Obispo serves as the commercial, governmental and cultural
hub of San Luis Obispo County. To celebrate the 150 year anniversary,or Sesquicentennial,a group of
local leaders is joining with City staff to plan a 10 month celebration in 2006,culminating in a grand
event planned for October.
As a way for local businesses and organizations to participate in the festivities,the
Sesquicentennial Steering Committee has assigned themes for each of the first 10 months of the year:
January—Environment
February—Recreation,Parks and Tourism
March-Tiansportation
April—Business and Leadership
May—Historical Preservation
June-Education
July-Cultural
August-Government
September-Agriculture
October-Arts
There is already a logo developed far the year-long celebration,which will be offered to groups
wishing to plan events around the theme. "We want to encourage groups that already have annual events
�� .. -�~ � �
or who are interested in planning something special to tie into the City's birthday to participate in the
Sesquicentennial,"says Steering Committee Chair,Kendi Root. "We can offer this wonderful
commemorative logo, memorabilia,promotional outreach and other support to help organizations get the
word out that they are part of tlus celebrarion.We hope that businesses, service organizations and
nonprofit agencies will join in on the fun!"Root adds that many on the Steering Committee represent
business organizations and other local agencies and plan to participate..
A town hall meeting was held on November 17 to gauge community interest in pa.rtnering with
the City in the celebration and to encourage involvement in research for each month's theme, to sponsor a
component of the event,provide information and to assign various tasks to tie into or create events.
(RESULTS OF THIS QUTREACH TO INCLiJDE?'??)

The Parks and Recreation Department's theme for this yeaz is"Through the Generations"
and that theme perfectly reflects a City milestone that will be occurring in 2006. For
generations—since the City incorporated in 1856 and created its city government—we
have been serving generations of citizens, young and old and everyone in between. To
� celebrate our anniversary as an incorporated city, San Luis Obispo will soon be throwing
a big"Sesquicentennial Celebration"party!
What the heck is a"Sesquicentennial" anniversary? Well, it's the next big benchmark
party after a"100 year"centennial celebration. While some people are lucky enough to
have a 100 year birthday party, let's face it, no one makes it to 150 years. But cities do
grow up to be 150, and San Luis Obispo shall be celebrating its 150 year birthday for
most of 2006.
A steering committee of local volunteers has already been organized, and with assistance
from City staff, is busily planning a 10-month long celebration. The party will start in
January 2006 and culminate in a weekend gala in October. Each month between January
and October we shall celebrate a special area of community accomplishment-education,
transportation, environmental protection, culture and the arts, business success, historic
preservation, governance and, of course, parks and recreation.
Local groups are being asked to consider how their organizations can incorporate the
Sesquicentennial theme into their own activities. By using the Sesquicentennial logo,
which is available upon request from the City, any existing event can join in the
celebration. In addition to celebrating already scheduled events, the committee is hoping
that groups will be interested in creating special Sesquicentennial activities that celebrate
our past, appreciate our present and envision a bright future.
Can we top the events held 50 yeazs ago to celebrate our centennial birthday? We hope
so! However, plans for the October gala weekend are still in the very early stages and
more volunteers and ideas are needed. The 100 year celebration was themed "Then and
Now" and included a banquet, parade, street dance,barbecue and horse show. Among
the highlights was a performance by the San Luis Obispo Little Theatre—a group that
still entertains us with fabulous performances. With 50 more years of"history making"
under our belt, the Sesquicentennial Celebration promises to be even greater!
Community members or groups interested in becoming a part of the fun should contact
Sesquicentennial Committee chair, Kendi Root, at 805-756-5113 or email to
kroot ,calpolv.edu. Additional information may also be found on the City's website,
www.slocitv.org Don't miss this opporiunity to make history for future generations to
celebrate!

ADDRESS AT
, SAN LUIS OBISPO, CALIFORNIA
M�v 9, �903
MR. CHAIRMAN� AND YOU, MY FELLOW-CITIZENS:
I
� It is indeed a great pleasure to have the chance of ineeting you
i this afternoon. For three days now I have been traveling
I throagh your wonderful and beautiful State and I marvel at its
fertility. I am not surprised to see you looking happy. I shoutd
� 1 be ashamed of you if you did not. (Applause.)
I
J . I know of this county in connection with certain Eastern agri-
cultural producers, for unless I mistake, those who ofFered prizes
for the largest vegetables and fruits of certain kinds have had
to bar the products from this county, because they invariably
won the prizes. (Applause.) I know of one Eastern producer
who said that the products of this county would have to be
bzrred, because he had spent already $soo in prizes to the county
and had gotten back but $i4 for seeds. I have forgotten all of
the records that you have in the connty. I know that the largest
pumpkin, watermelon and onion came from here, so that your
agricultural products have made a name for themselves to be
feared. Of course, in stock raising and dairying the county
stands equally prominent. I am glad to learn that the State of
California is erecting here the polytechnic institute for giving
I all the scientific training in the arts of farm life. More and
more our people have waked to the fact that farming is not only
a practical, but a scientific pursuit, and that there should be the
I same chance for the tiller of the soil to make his a learned pro-
fession that there is in any other business.
� For three days I have been traveling through one of those
regions of our countty where the interests are agricultural and
pastoral, where the tiller of the soil, the man who grows stock.

Deborah, Here is a copy of the email exchange between you and April regarding the banner order. As you can see,all that was
needed was$1250 from sponsors to meet the agreed upon number of banners. Yesterday, you indicated that it was twice that
amount. Because we don't have any money, and as far as I know,no sponsors yet for even the$1250, I'm a bit concerned. Your
thoughts?

Deborah,
just spoke with Betsy. We have$3750, so order the number of
banners that amount will cover. Then, order 5 additional banners
for which the committee will get sponsors.

I completely understand. It's quite an undertaking to go out and
raise that kind of money so I'll hold off on the#until we know for
sure. Thanks for your help, Deborah

Deborah,
We have the$3750, but I am really hesitant to tell you to place
an order for more than that as Kendi has not come through on other
commitments. I do not want the City to be scrambling for money
because we ordered too many banners. I just called Betsy to see
what she wants to do. I am waiting for a call back and I wilf let
you know as soon as I hear from her.

�`f CENfi�' 10/12/06
Good evening. I am San Luis Obispo Mayor Dave Romero and I am
pleased to be here this evening for a special celebration, a birthday party for
the City of San Luis Obispo. It was 150 years ago, in 1856, that this dusty
mission town on California's Central Coast was incorporated. Today, San
Luis Obispo serves as a commercial, governmental and cultural hub of San
Luis Obispo County. With the spirit of a small town, San Luis Obispo has
grown into a destinarion filled with a strong sense of community, popular
events and an unmatched charisma attracting people from all over the world.
Throughout this year of celebration, a number of community groups
and individuals have come forward to share their wisdom and knowledge
regarding the rich history of San Luis Obispo. Because of this year long
celebration, a more comprehensive history was presented to the community.
The sesquicentennial has provided an opportunity to glance back at where
we were 150 years ago and how far we have come today in 2006.
Again, thank you to the community and its many historians for
getting involved and celebrating this special celebration. It is an honor to
stand before you tonight and be a part of San Luis Obispo's
sesquicentennial. I can only imagine what challenges and progressions will
be brought to us and future generations over the next 150 yeaxs. Here's to
the City of San Luis Obispo.

, Subject: RE: City's BDay Celebration at Farmer's Market
Hello Donna,
Connie forwarded us your e-mail since Susie in currently on
vacation. To answer your questions and to reiterate: .
-As Connie said, we can supply the napkins, which, as you said, can
be used to serve the cake as was done for the Amgen bike race.
-We will begin to distribute the sheet cakes at the start of
Farmer's Market, with the Circus Cake on display until the Mayor cuts
into it. Then, we can continue to hold off on the Gircus Cake and keep
it on display, or we can cut into and serve the Circus Cake to the
public as well.
-We can easily bring an extra table (or tables)to have on hand.
-We will be arriving at 5:30pm on Chorro Street to set up.
-As far as help, we will be bcinging our own staff to help cut and
serve the cake, so you do not need to worry about bringing anyone for
that purpose. However, thank you for offering a helping hand!
Everything else you mentioned in your e-mail below sounds wonderful. .
We're excited to be there and help out! If you have any more questions
or need anything further, please feel free to contact either myself or
Alexis via e-mail or phone. Otherwise, we'll see you on October 12th at
about 5:30pm.
• Take care,

Betsy KisP,r- RE: City's_BDay Celebration a+ Farmer's Market . .._._.. ... ..._. ... . . .... .�......._. .. . Page 2
October 12th to let you know a few things:
CG
- The City's plan is to set up booths on Chorro between Higuera
and Monterey. The Madonna Inn van can be parked right by the corner of
Chorro and Monterey(by Johnson's for Children). Set up will begin
around 5:30pm. There will be a few booths on that street and the idea
is the coax people into strolling down to check out the various booths
and displays (Firefighter's, Police, City, Historical Society, etc.).
- There will be one or two tables set up to accommodate the
Circus Cake and other cake to be distributed but it's my thought that if
you have any extra, you might want to bring down one other table for
back up.
- I couldn't remember if you had said that you could also
provide napKins..:if so, that would be great. We are planning to
distribute cake like it was done for the bike race which is to cut
smaller pieces and place them on a napkin rather than worry about plates
and forks. The idea behind the Circus Cake it to have it set up for the
Mayor to cut sometime after 6:30 after the "dog and pony"show. Our
thought is that the other cake can be passed out as soon as Farmer's
Market starts. The plan is to be in that location from about
6:OOpm-8:OOpm roughly.
- Do you need help or will you have a couple people who can
help distribute cake? I can be there and I can bring my kids to help
� which I tliought would be fun but wasn't sure what you had planned. Can
you let me know?
- So that you know the program will consist of an announcement
by the Sesquicentennial Committee Chair, Opening Comments by the Mayor,
Intro of Council Members, Intro of former Mayors, Presentation of Plaque
by Native Sons of the Golden West to City, Introduction of Steering
Committee, Special Acknowledgements (including Madonna Inn for providing
the cake), and then the cutting of the cake by Mayor Romero.
Please let me know if you have any questions at this point. Otherwise
we will plan on seeing the Madonna Inn van downtown on the 12th between
5:30-6:OOpm. And thank you again for the donation... we really -
appreciate your support of this.

Betsy, I am not able to attend Thursday's meeting however if you'd
like to share the following information and have the committee decide
if it's worth spending the money on, I can place the order next
week. (Also need art work and wording).
20 banners x$145 $2,900
tax 210
hanging' 700
Total 3,810
*The usual fee for hanging/taking down is$1,500 however since we can
have one round of our banners hung when the Sesquicentennial banners
come down, we can split that and since 20 is less than 31, I've
reduced the cost although I have to double cFieck that. Also, if the
fee is waived for hanging our DA banner for the occasion with a
Sesqui Grand Finale insert,we'll pay for the insert and save the
committee the$75. Since the difference between the donation and the
cost of 20 is only$108, maybe we can "find"that extra somewhere--
would be nice to do as many as possible.
Let me know what everyone decides and we'll go from there, thanks.

Mr. Grosse,
Thank you for your inquiry regarding the use of Mitchell Park.We would like to help out with your
rehearsals, however there are a few challenges that may not be unsurmountable. First,Thursday evening
is Farmers' Market downtown. Parking truly does not exist anywhere in that neighborhood during that time.
Folks that work downtown park during the day and then leave, but the Market attendees then flood the
area. It would be difficult to schedule and promote something on an ongoing basis for Thursdays in
Mitchell Park because of the parking issue. Secondly, waiving the fees could be possible; however,we do
not have lights to offer, only electricity. If the electricity were to be tapped into, the fee waiver would need
to be re-examined.
Could you call me when you have a moment to discuss this further? I want to make sure I understand your
needs and maybe figure out an alternate location. My number is 781-7303 which is my direct line.
,��
Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you.

Griselda&James, As transmitted to Ashley Blake last week, the SLO County Band would like to use
Mitchell Park Bandstand as part of the City Sesquicentennial by scheduling our summer rehearsals there
as twilight concerts open to the public under the Sesquicentennial promotion banner. The problem we
have is that we were quoted a fee for the Park that would be a budget breaker for us.
We rehearse on Thursday evening 7-9 pm and would make the first hour into the "twilight concert time".
Can you help us in getting the fee waived or reduced? We would need lights--otherwise,we are self-
contained.
Thanks for your help,
Bob Grosse

The Marketing Committee agreed that we want to do something in the
brochure with the sesquicentennial logo and a mention of the
celebration. We are keying in on the October Opening Night concert-
since that is Arts month for the Sesquicentennial celebration and seems
to be the proper time to do it. We have mentioned to Mike the fact of
the anniversary-whether he programs something that ties in to that is
entirely up to him. We will certainly use the logo and tie it all in
with the text somehow. We will be exploring other ideas as we put
together the brochure as well as plan for opening n.ight celebrations.
We'll keep you posted-and we'll miss your presence on the board!!
Thanks for checking in-
--Patty

Patty,what was the outcome of the marketing committee's discussions
about the Sesquicentennial? Does it look like the Symphony will tie in

Subject: 150th Community Outreach Update
Betsy, unfortunately, the community outreach subcommittee does not have
much to report. Despite our letters and follow up contacts, we have not
gotten much interest back from groups on tying into the Sesquicentennial
celebration. You know about the plaos of the Realtors to help out with
the Seagrave. 1 believe the Rotary July 4th picnic at Mitchell Park is
tying in, and that the Senior Center will have an open house that day:
The SLO Symphony is considering a tie-in but I have not heard
definitively. Heritage Inn would like to tie in and is looking at an
open house in May. I am speaking to the Native Sons of the Golden West
next month on the subject but I'm not sure what they will do. Denny
McLean is involved with that group and I understand he works for the
City water dept so if you can corrall him into some action,that would
be great.
Anyway, as I mentioned, I will not be able to be at the meeting tomorrow
so I trust you will relay our report.
Thanks!

Subject: RE: Sesquicentennial logo
Thanks Betsy. It was nice to talk with you. I did connect with Mary Verdin
after we talked. It sounds like just Sandy Baer is submitting her monthly
article on the 150th to the Journal, but it may not include any activities
..: since Mary said there weren't any(other than the Heritage Inn's) events
sent in.
I called Steve Owens directly to see if I could slide in a blurb under the
announcements section, but they had their answering machine on ... wisely,
since I'm sure they are on deadline and want to avoid last minute calls like
this. :)
Anyway, I'll create a press release and send it out to the Trib and other
media separately(with a copy to Mary) once I can nail down more details.
Meanwhile,
1) I'll see if Georgia Adrian will consider adding the Sesquicentennial
logo and link to the Heritage Inn website,
2) I'll email the information to April for the calendar and
3) We'll proceed with my original plan to promote in through the VCB's "SLO
Deals" and direct mail.
Thanks!

� Wow! That is great. And so organized.
When you send the letter to the Mayor, send it to tHe other Council members
also and cc Barbara Ehrbar. That way it will get on their calendars. Of
course you would want to include Chief Callahan and members of the
Firefighter's Association.
Continue to work with Donna as far as publicity through the Sesquicentennial
Steering Committee. At the last meeting we discussed the possibility of
setting somthing up with the Dave Congalton show. We have a member of the
committee that will serve as the contact with Dave.
Via this email, I'm also letting our Chairperson and Outreach Chair know
what is going on and giving a heads-up to Kim Walker, our Public Relations
contact.
Thank you for the update.

_ our latest news. We'll be kicking off our event with our association on
April 24th...which is a Monday.Which basically means we'll be delivering
� the pedal truck fire engines to the various banks where they'll be on
display, along with the tickets and the ticket collection jars. On April
25th, at our MLS Marketing Meeting,the Fire Dept. will be joining us and
promoting the Save the Seagrave fundraiser and we'll begin sales of raffle
tickets to our association members. We want to have our members and the
banks educated about the event so that when May rolls around...our
membership will be on top of it.Around this same time...flyer distribution
will begin. We'll have flyers in our newsletter...and being distributed
around town. We are on a waiting list for a soapbox spot for the April 27
Good Morning SLO Breakfast.
May 1 we will begin massive sales "encouragemenY'...throughout the banks and
with our volunteer sales people...and going on throughout the month of May.
As we could only obtain one day per quarter to sell raffle tickets downtown
at Farmer's Market...we have chosen May 18th to do this. We'll have our
banner, a table, one of the cars (the fancy one!), a large poster describing
the event, tickets for sale, etc. As we'll be positioned with the firemen on
Chorro/Higuera...they will be helping us sell tickets!
On June 1, 2006 we'll hold the drawing for the 7 pedal cars. Hopefully we'll
have some local dignitaries on hand for the drawing. Around the first of
May...l will prepare a letter to send to the Mayor, and anyone else that you
think would be a good choice to have on hand...requesting their
presence...and possibly picking the winning tickets????
We are so grateful for the support of the Committee's public relations
machine! Donna Lewis has kept us informed and has been a valuable asset to
us...as I'm sure she has been to you!
In closing...if there is anything else you need...please do not hesitate to
� contact me...We are very excited about the project...and eager to get it
under way!
Thanks Betsy!

Dear PR Committee: �
Attached please find a database of the groups that the Communiry
Outreach Committee has targeted. If there are any groups on here which
you were planning on targeting directly, please let us know and we'd be
happy to turn those over to you. For example, at one steering
committee, someone said that the PR committee was planning on making
presentations to the service clubs, or at least the Rotary Clubs. If
so,that is great;just let us know.
Also, have you, or are you planning to, put together any PR presentation
materials, such as a slide show? If so, please share it with us so that
we could use it,too. If not, might you consider it?
We are planning on getting letters and packets out to the groups on the
attached list this week. We'll then follow up as appropriate.
Sincerely,
June

theme will be incor orated into this program.
7. Finally,the City's Cammunity Relations Team has taken on the role of
coordinating Se uicentennial•activities. They are doing the followin :
a. EnsuHng that new slides going out on Channel 20 from their departrnents
contain the I o.
b. Preparing videos of walking tours that discuss the history of SLO to be
broadcast on Channel 20.
c. Working with a community member on a slide presentation of tlie Mission
San Luis Obis o de Tolosa.
d. Coord(nating with the employees'chapter of the NMA(National
Management Association)to change the display case in the City Hall Rotunda
to refled the monthl ses uicentennial themes.
e. Working with staff in their own departments to implement other ideas
romotin the event.
8.I forgol to let you know that the Parks 8 Recreation Department's KEY
publication,which is a 46-page annual reference guide,inciuded a message
about the sesquicentennial in it along with ihe logo. This guide goes to all
residents. You may have received it. I live outside of the City limifs and didn't get
it.
9. Another thing the City will be dofng in the very near future is placing
vinyl decals using the Sesquicentennial logo on our City vehicles. We can thank
our Public Works De artment for this romotion of the Ci 's anniversary!

Subject: Fwd: 150 year event
June- Please see the email below from Ethel Landers. She is interested in the Sesquicentennial
Celebration and would be a good candidate for a group event packet. Also, I had a cail from Mr. Manny
Silva, representing the Sons of the Golden West. His group is having a meeting on Feb. 20 at the Morro
Bay Natural History Museum and is looking for someone to talk about our plans for the Sesquicentennial.
He has something in mind for his group, but I'm not clear on what it is. His phone number is (h)528-0600
and (w)772-6225. email address: msilva@morro-bav.ca.us Could someone from the Outreach
Committee contact him? Thanks.

H i Betsy
Read about your special 150 year celebration. I just finished as program
coordinator for our Centennial and the year long celebration. (We are a
teenager compared to your City!)
Say, are you offering any opportunities for local non-profits to be
included in activities? I am on the board of one and we'd like to plan
some events with a Sesquicentennial theme. Didn't know if you had a
community calendar we could join or how we could coordinate and
participate. Are we allowed to use the logo? In Santa Maria we allowed
non-profits to use the logo on letterhead, ads, flyers etc. and then we
listed their events in our calendar of events on the City website and in
handouts. I'll attach what we did as reference.Any advice is
appreciated.

Subject: Fwd: Clear Channel Insight Program
Please see the following e-mail from Kim Walker. I told her I would coordinate with you folks to see if we
can put together teams for each of the following interviews.
Please let me know if you would like to participate and/or if you have suggestions for who else we can
invite. I've added the themes after each date just in case they trigger an idea for a speaker.
(Just as an aside ... ) One of the things that has occurred to me a couple of times, but I keep forgetting to
bring it up, is that the no one from County Government or the Library is on the Steering Committee. I
know this is a City event, but the County and its history is an integral part of it. June, has the outreach
committee got plans for making contact with either of these agencies? You know me, always curious.
Thanks.

Audrey and Molly,
Here is a list of dates that we need someone to talk about the monthly Sesquicentennial theme.This is a
12 minute taped spot with Andy Morris. It is a great spot for two people, maybe one staff person and one
community member for each broadcast.
Thank you so much and I am so sorry about my crazy schedule right now.

Each of these dates will take place at 11:00 a.m. at Clear Channel, 51 Zaca Lane. These dates are s�,t so�
that the spot can run the first Saturday of each month. C�,�;,�.�
These dates are certainly flexible is need be, but this is a good framework for us to start.

Subject: Next Sesquicentennial Steering Committee Meeting
I will actually be out of town when the next meeting is scheduled (October 20). Between the two of you,
can you take it to the next step? Basically, I think the agenda is:
1) Choose a chair(with the offer of the City handling the administrative end of things like finding meeting
space,sending out meeting notices, etc.) ��p,_ _ ,(,o� 1 �,��,,r(,�
2) Push on the logo
3) Develop a framework of what and when for the October event and any other activities
4) Decide whether to have a big public meeting. Probably can't be the 25th, as that will be too soon, but
maybe early November. �
