On September 15th, the Sacramento Convention Center will host the city’s annual Perspectives event. For those unacquainted, it is an event sponsored by the Sac Metro Chamber that gives a chance for important public figures to come speak about current issues each year. This year’s theme is “All About US: The Issues Shaping America’s Future.” (Link to Perspectives 2006 event)

I have become involved with a contest sponsored by Sacramento’s Prosper Business Magazine to enlist up to 20 local Northern California students to blog about the issues in the weeks leading up to the event and then live from the discussions on September 15th. The speakers for this year’s event will be the following:
Dave Barry (writer/humorist)
Tom Daschle (Senator)
Bob Dole
Lisa Ling (TV personality)
Cheech Marin (Comedian/Actor)
Tom Ridge (former Secretary of Homeland Security)

Prosper (who host a great series of business blogs by Sacramento business people) will sponsor the final 20 students to attend the event and hear the speakers live. It will be a student-led project, and they are looking for experienced student bloggers in the local Sacramento community and accross Northern California to participate. There will be cash prizes for the student blogs that generate the most traffic, not to mention some great exposure! If anyone is interested in participating, please get in touch with me.
