Bridge St. / Hot Springs. Two Golf carts
were decorated with a ST. Patrick’s Day Theme and a big DH Sign was on board.
Beads, candy, and discount golfing certificates were thrown to the crowd. Many thanks go to PRC member, Sharon Perisho,
for coordinating this promotional event.
Getting into the parade is no easy task and Sharon managed that as well
as great St. Patrick’s Day Theme Decorations. (View the Focus online for
pictures & details).
· The slogan
contest that asked entrants to create a slogan that promotes DH in a way
that inspires others to become residents of DH kicked off the first week of
January and ended February 28th.
· Thanks to all who participated in the contest.
Entries were cut in half.
Name halves were separated from the slogan halves to assure non- bias judging. Entries were put in the office safe at the
end of the contest.
There were a total of 27 entrants. All slogans that were submitted were
considered. A consensus was reached on
one of the slogans, then; the slogan box with entrant names was opened to match
slogan # to name #.
Ms. M. A. Wood, a 5 year
resident, won the slogan contest.
The winning slogan:
SCENIC STAYCATION
