FROM THE CITY DESK...

Here's a few items that have something for everyone.  Put them on your calendar.  It'd be worth getting up on any of these dates

August 21 (Thursday):

LIFE IN SEBASTOPOL PHOTO CONTEST AWARDS RECEPTION



Sebastopol Center for the Arts, 282 South High St. - 5:30pm to 7:00pm

This summer, the City of Sebastopol, together with the Sebastopol Center for the Arts, the Sebastopol Chamber of Commerce, and Sonoma West Times & News, sponsored a photo contest to capture "Life in Sebastopol."

Entrants were also asked to think about the City departments and to select nonprofit organizations that help to contribute to Sebastopol's unique quality of life. There are over $1,000 in prizes.

113 photos were submitted depicting everything from the Police Chief, Fire Department and Public Works on the job, the Laguna, sunsets, rainbows, and, of course apples and apple blossoms.

The public is invited to the Awards Reception where the 5-6 winners will be announced.

The finalist images will remain on display at the Sebastopol Center for the Arts through the month of August.
