BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Previous Commission action/date: N
Background: Alabama 200 is a three-year celebration of the people, places and events that form our rich history. In January 2017, the commission appointed a steering committee made up of everyday professionals and volunteers to guide and support the AL 200 Bicentennial efforts for Alabama. This committee has worked to support, create, and execute events and activities that commemorate the stories of our people, places and path to statehood. The committee does this by engaging residents and visitors in educational programs and community activities that teach, inspire and entertain.
The promotional items will include items such as ink pens, note pads, cups, tapestry throws, erasers, rulers, fans, ID holders, lanyard and t-shirts, which will be purchased from the approved vendors, 4-Imprint and/or Staples. All items will be free to the public with the exception the AL 200 Bicentennial t-shirts and tapestry throws. The committee would like to sell the t-shirts and tapestry throws as a means of promoting the Bicentennial celebration and reimburse the county. The use of online and paper brochures will be used as exposure of the t-shirts and tapestry throws.
The appropriation for said promotional items were approved by the Baldwin County Commission in the FY2018- 2019 Budget as an endeavor which, in the judgment of this honorable county governing body, is worthy, in the best interest of the county.
