2. Follow up with Cedar Ridge about video contest(s) (Peter Leousis). Peter said that the videography teacher at Cedar Ridge High School was very much in favor of the proposed video contest. There are four classes in one block. The group agreed that we would have to give the students parameters for the videos they would create. After discussing alternatives it was decided that a $500 gift certificate would be given to the teacher for the students to purchase needed equipment, and the winning video would be used in the bicycle safety campaign launch. Parameters would address safe passing, respect and friendliness, and use well -known people residing in Orange County. The length of the video would be around 15 seconds.
