ITEM EXPLANATION: Each year the Carlsbad Library literacy program staff amasses a team of participants from Carlsbad employees, residents, volunteers and friends for the annual Union Tribune Race for Literacy. This year the Carlsbad Team had the second largest San Diego Council on Literacy Affiliated Program team with 69 members. In Motion Events, the event producer, donated $500 to Literacy Services in recognition of this achievement. The Carlsbad Library literacy program located within the Library Learning Center will use the funds for the purchase of learner and tutor supplies and materials.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: Accepting this donation does not qualify as a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378) and no environmental review is required.
