Dear Ms. Merrill:
Congratulations again on being a 1995 Keep America Beautiful National Award Winner.
We are pleased to extend an invitation to you to be presented with your award and receive
recognition for your achievement at our 42nd Annual Meeting. We have in our records that the
name on your award should read-"City of San Bernardino, Public Services Department" if this is
not correct, please contact us immediately.
The 1995 awards will be presented:
at: KAB's National Awards Dinner
on: Wednesday, December 6, 1995 at 7:OOpm
in: Washington, D.C. at the J.W. Marriott Hotel
This year in order to give the award winners even greater visibility for their efforts, KAB
has combined two luncheons to have an awards dinner. This will be a prestigious event. To
accommodate everyone receiving an award, some winners will be seated at reserved tables in
front of the tiered dais. Because of this different arrangement, it is imperative that all those
receiving an award be at the winners reception no later than 6:30pm so that we can organize
the winners line up.
I. Return the enclosed postcard to KAB, Inc. by November 10th with the name of the person
who will be seated at the dais/awards tables to receive the your award. (Note: One person
only per award.) If you are unable to send a representative to receive your award, it will
be mailed to you.
Note: For those who have won in more than one category and are having the same person
accept multiple awards, be sure to clearly indicate this on the enclosed postcard. We must
have an accurate placement and headcount on the dais and awards tables.
2. A reception honoring award winners begins at 6:OOpm. The location of this reception will
be given to winners at KAB's registration area. The Award Winner line-up will take
place at 6:30pm on Wednesday, December 6, one half hour before the Awards
Dinner. The Awards Dinner begins promptly at 7:OOpm. A Photo Opportunity will take
place at the completion of the Awards Dinners (approximately 9:30).
