What:      The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) and
           the Los Angeles Dodgers are teaming up to bring Dodger Jams
           to Adams Middle School in South Los Angeles.  Dodger Jams
           is a school assembly featuring a motivational session with

           Lou Johnson, immediately followed by live music and
           performances that appeal to middle school youngsters.  This
           community outreach program recognizes hundreds of young
           leaders at middle schools throughout Los Angeles for their
           achievements both in and outside of the classroom and

           Attitude and Motivation).

           by members of the LADWP Speakers Bureau who will educate
           the children about water conservation and the wise use of
           electricity during the summer months.
