All-City Prep Sports Awards the Oklahoman’S All-City Prep Sports Awards CAMPAIGN DETAILS The Oklahoman’s All-City Prep Sports Awards The Oklahoman’s All-City Prep Sports Awards CAMPAIGN DETAILS Best Use of an Event to Build a News Brand Group 1/Local, Regional Brands Excerpt: The Oklahoman created and executed a once-in-a-lifetime awards experience for outstanding high school athletes, headlined by five-time NFL MVP, Peyton Manning. With 1,200 attendees, this marks the largest awards event in Oklahoma City, recognizing 528 athletes from over 100 high schools across 12 sports. In fact, our male-athlete-of-the-year, Trae Young, is a current super-star in college basketball which helps continue to build awareness for our event. Finally, our event contributed to our community as we selected a non-profit beneficiary, Fields & Futures, to receive a donation from the proceeds. Challenge: Our challenge was to help raise awareness of the importance of high school athletics to our community because national statistics show students involved in organized athletics experience better grades, better attendance, higher graduation rates, and have a higher sense of self-worth and better social skills than non-participants. Objective: The primary objective was to sell sponsorships and tickets to the event in an effort to bring in new revenue for our company. Our secondary objective was to create an event that would be a once in a lifetime experience for outstanding high school athletes at the biggest sports awards event in the history of the Oklahoma City metro area. Our final objective was to promote our award-winning sports coverage as being the most comprehensive in the state of Oklahoma. Campaign: We developed a multi-media marketing campaign, designed to create excitement around sports and entice friends and family members of winning high school athletes and the general public to purchase tickets to our event. We hired Five-Time Super Bowl MVP, Peyton Manning as our keynote speaker. Our campaign included print and digital ads, TV and radio spots and social media. These channels provided brand awareness for The Oklahoman, event promotion and brand exposure for our sponsors. The Oklahoman’s All-City Prep Sports Awards CAMPAIGN DETAILS Results: • Our event created huge gains in brand favorability for our sponsors, including a 61% increase for our title sponsor, national brand Braum’s Ice Cream and Dairy Stores. • In addition, our post-event research demonstrated that the event significantly improved brand favorability for The Oklahoman with 66% of attendees saying they viewed The Oklahoman more favorably following the event. • Satisfaction for the event was enormous as well. In fact, 96% of attendees were pleased with the event and 95% of attendees said they would recommend the event • Attendee quotes included: o “The Oklahoman’s All-City Prep Sports Awards was an amazing event that blew past all my expectations!” – Diana Jones o “We loved the awards banquet! Everything about it was well done – from the decorations and food to the speakers and award presentations.” – Laura Callahan o “The evening was wonderful. Enjoyed seeing all the athletes together in such an inspiring atmosphere. Peyton Manning was a great speaker.

    APBA FOOTBALL GREAT TEAMS OF THE PAST Volume 3 The following players comprise volume 3 of APBA's Great Football Teams of the Past ("GTOP") Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. Names in bold are starters. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble.

    In ;outh From an o: 1 painting Captain Edward Richardson A MEMORIAL With Genealogical Records of Some of His Ancestors and Descendants By ELIZABETH WILLS VERNON RADCLIFFE Privately Printed 1923 NEWCOMB & GAUSS Printers SALBM, MASS. CONTENTS Biographical Sketch of Capt. Edward Richardson 1 Genealogical Records . 41 Appendix . · . 69 CAPTAIN EDWARD RICHARDSON-A MEMORIAL. ,VITH GENEALOGICAL RECORDS OF SOME OF His ANCESTORS AND DESCENDANTS. BY ELIZABETH WILLS VERNON RADCLIFFE. One Sabbath morning, more than one hundred years ago, a sailing vessel dropped anchor in the harbor of a Massachusetts seaport town. A young sailor came ashore, walked along a peaceful road and into its Baptist l\ileeting House. Soon he heard a sweet voice singing. "Who is that?" he inquired of a friend. "That's Patty Smith, one of the belles of Hadley," was the reply. Edward Richardson looked up from where he was seated and discovered a beautiful girl. "I'll walk home with her after service," he whispered to his companion. "You can hardly do that," was confided, "s·omebody else claims the privilege." Nevertheless, at the church door he stood awaiting the descent from the choir; was introduced, and did walk home with her that morning, in the spring sunshine, and into her heart as well; this we may conclude, as their engagement and marriage soon followed. In her father's familv Bible is recorded: &I "July 28, 1813, My daughter ~Iartha aged 19 years and 8 months, was married to Edward Richardson, aged 24 years, of Danvers, Mass." Edward was the son of Seth, who fought in the Revo­ lutionary War, and ,vho was with Washington when he [I] C.1\.PTAIN ED,VARD RIC_HARDSON crossed the Delaware and at Valley Forge, and of Hannah Waters, whose ancestors go back to the earliest settlers of Salem; to John Tomkins and through Trasks, Gardners and Porters to l\iajor ,villiam Hathorne, head of ~Iilitia of Colonial Wars; and through Richard Waters, of Danvers, 'Over the seas to James, of the parish of St.
