Dear Tom:
As you know the Health Department sponsored a very successful event on Feb. 6, 1993.
Fun Fest'93: A Party With A Purpose was the largest, most diverse health oriented event
in the history of Contra Costa County. Estimated attendance bordered on 4,000 guests.
Some 40 citizen and agency volunteers worked tirelessly to make this event such a success.
Without their energy and dedication to the reduction of substance abuse none of it would
have been possible.
It seems appropriate to acknowledge their kind efforts in some meaningful way. I wish to
recommend that a recognition ceremony take place at the board meeting on Tuesday, April
27, 1993 at 9:00 a.m.
At that time, the Conference Coordinator, Ms. Kathy Padro, will provide a short overview
on the high points of the Fun Fest. Then, the chair of the planning committee, Mr. Chuck
Stephenson will say a few words and introduce the committee members. Committee
members will stand on Mr. Stephenson's cue and the Board may recognize their
achievements at that time. (We will have certificates prepared in advance which we will
distribute in the lobby following the ceremony)
We appreciate the Board's time in acknowledging this effort and for their continued support
in the Partership For A Drug Free Contra Costa County.
Sin rely,
