"First Night International Youth Day"
December 29, 2003
| WHEREAS: |
First Night International Youth Day is an affordable year end family event where parents can take their children for some wholesome, alcohol free fun, games and entertainment with a focus on arts and education; and |
| WHEREAS: |
since its move to the safe and warm indoor environment of SkyDome, it has become a three-day event that will be a learning venue for our children and includes a number of City of Toronto social agencies like Mothers Against Drunk Driving, Child Find, Invest in Kids and Kiwanis; and |
| WHEREAS: |
there will be special attention paid to the many diverse ethnic organizations and they will be allowed a venue to display and share with youth, their culture, foods and traditions; and |
| WHEREAS: |
the Aboriginal community, being the original residents of Toronto, will also have a role to play in the First Night Toronto Family Festival. |
| NOW, |
| THEREFORE: |
I, Mayor David Miller on behalf of Toronto City Council and the 2.5 million people of our great City, do hereby proclaim December 29, 2003 as "First Night International Youth Day" and encourage everyone to participate in this wonderful year-end family festival of the arts. |
[Signed Mayor David Miller]
