A media guide provided by the Pinellas County Arts Council is utilized as a primary source for publicity; as for past events, press releases for the concert event will be sent to daily and non-daily newspapers, and magazines, as well as public service announcements to appropriate broadcast and cable TV and radio stations. A PYS newsletter sent to a substantial mailing list of current and former members, contributors, and public and private school music teachers will also contain an announcement and details of the event. Concert flyers and/or posters will be placed in public locations such as Clearwater and other Pinellas County libraries, and stores windows where permitted. Concert flyers will be sent to retirement communities in the zip code areas within a substantial radius of Coachman Park where the concert will take place and to youth organizations and child-oriented institutions throughout the county, such as museums, scout groups, and churches with youth groups, will also receive information. PYS also anticipates that, since the event will occur in conjunction with the Clearwater Fun n'Sun Festival, that the PYS event information will be included in promotional materials put out by the City of Clearwater. The Board of Directors Publicity and Audience Development Committee will be responsible for implementing this plan, and it is therefore anticipated that the services for the above will be provided almost entirely by volunteers. 1 I.

Box 2755 · Dunedin, Florida 34697 (813) 438-3149 April 14, 1998 To: Grant Review Panel City of Clearwater, Special Events Grant Funding Dear Members of the Grant Review Panel: The Board of Directors of the Pinellas Youth Symphony, Inc., a non-profit organization, voted at its March 16, 1998 meeting to apply for a grant from the City of Clearwater to hold a special concert event in Clearwater at Coachman Park during its 1998/99 season, and to budget for the necessary matching funds for a grant from the City of Clearwater fo~ this event. The Board members believe that this will be a wonderful opportunity for our more than 250 student musicians to give a concert in an outdoor venue, which will be conducive to a family atmosphere, but attractive to people of all ages and ethnic groups. We thank the City of Clearwater for giving us the chance to apply for a grant for this event. Sincerely, 'YUt Mary T.
