4. National Preservation Week
Several ideas were presented as possible activities for National Preservation Week next May. After
discussion, several Commissioners liked the idea of a coloring or essay contest for elementary students,
with the week culminating in an awards ceremony at the old Carlsbad Theatre. There was some interest in
possibly showing an old Cisco Kid film, since Leo Carrillo was a Carlsbad resident. Commissioner Schwei
will locate a copy of the Carlsbad coloring book and come up with some essay topics. She will also contact
the Kindles at the Carrillo Foundation to see if a film is available and what other ideas they may have.
Commissioner Valenti will contact Tom McMahon, owner of the theatre, to see if something can be worked
out. Commissioner Jones will also check into a film.
Commissioners should present their ideas on a prize for the contest(s) at the January meeting.
