Application for Best Event/Program within an Event to Benefit a Cause Herky on Parade Live Auction 2015 IFEA Pinnacle Awards Application for Best Event/Program within an Event to Benefit a Cause Herky on Parade Live Auction IFEA Pinnacle Awards 1. Overview Information A. Introduction/Background of Main Event Herky on Parade was the largest public art project ever produced in the Iowa City, Iowa area. The beloved University of Iowa mascot, Herky the Hawk, was fabricated into statue form and took on 84 different designs and went on display all over the university campus and three surrounding communities from May through August 2014. The 2014 project celebrated 10 years since the original Herky on Parade took place in the area. Those who were residents in 2004 were familiar with the project and excited to bring it back, though it didn’t take long for those who didn’t live in town the first time to also get excited. The anniversary Parade brought together over 50 local and regional artists, over 60 local sponsors, three municipalities, and a Big 10 university. It became an engine that united residents, visitors, business professionals, and students, building a shared bridge in which all could take part. The Iowa City/Coralville Area Convention & Visitors Bureau (CVB) was the primary organizer for the program and led the executive committee. B. Description & Purpose/Objective of Program The Herky on Parade Live Auction was the final event of the project and the most important aspect in terms of fundraising. From the beginning, the intention was to auction the statues at the end of the summer in order to benefit a local non-profit organization.

Of Our Schools
Lake Washington School District History of Our Schools Honoring the Past - Imagining the Future Lake Washington School District History beginnings September 12, 1944 marked the beginnings of what is now known as Lake Washington School District #414. On that date sixty years ago three small districts in the area – Juanita, Kirkland, and Redmond – were incorporated into one. That district, for a short time called the Kirkland Consolidated School District, was the beginning of today’s Lake Washington School District. Lake Washington, the sixth largest district in the state, stretches from Lake Washington to Lake Sammamish. But the district really got its start back in the late 1800’s when the area was still forested hillsides and travel between what are now the cities of Redmond and Kirkland constituted a major trip over what was then a pathway through the forest. Schools were being operated in log cabins throughout the area now known as Lake Washington School District in the small communities and settlements of Houghton, Juanita, Northup, Avondale, Happy Valley, Kirkland and Redmond. The school district system that began back then was transplanted from the mid-western and eastern states. Washington’s early communities were widely separated and school boundaries were drawn without reference to other settlements around them. As more and more settlers arrived, the number of school districts increased. In 1910 there were 2,710 school districts in Washington. As early as 1903, the state was passing legislation to consolidate school districts. And a number of the smaller districts in this area were ultimately to become parts of Juanita, Kirkland, and Redmond Districts.

Traditions, Rituals & Ceremonies Final Report
The University of Iowa Traditions, Rituals & Ceremonies Final Report Student Success Team Subcommittee Report on Healthy Traditions Prepared by: Kelly Jo Karnes, Associate Director, Office of Student Life Mary Trachsel, Associate Professor and Chair, Rhetoric Department 9/19/2008 Committee on Traditions, Rituals and Ceremonies I. Committee Membership Cassondra Boehmer, Andy Cinoman, Anne Gannaway, Diane Graber, Sarah Hansen, Jennifer Joslin, Kelly Jo Karnes (co‐chair), Belinda Marner, Geb Thomas, and Mary Trachsel (co‐chair). II. Introduction Charge of Opportunities for Student Engagement Committee: The committee will develop a plan to create and implement traditions, rituals, and ceremonies to foster and support student success (e.g., Opening Convocation, celebration of completion of first year/rising sophomores, and so on). In conducting its work, the committee will use the SST’s definition of student success at the University of Iowa: University of Iowa students succeed when they achieve personal and institutional educational goals. Successful students develop skills and knowledge, become more mature in their thinking, assume greater responsibility for their own lives and learning, develop understanding of diversity and multiculturalism, and become effective leaders. Student success at The University of Iowa is a shared enterprise. Students succeed by active engagement in educationally‐purposeful activities. Faculty, staff, and students create formal and informal learning opportunities on campus and off, and policies, programs, and practices that foster student engagement. The University measures student and institutional success in undergraduate education by examining a variety of indicators, including measures of learning, persistence, graduation, engagement, health and well‐being, and opportunities after graduation. i. The committee formed and began by identifying all of the Iowa traditions that were currently occurring or had previously happened on campus.
