to the Bret Harte Middle School in South Los Angeles.
Dodger Jams is a school assembly featuring live music and
entertainment combined with motivational messages from
Dodger centerfielder Dave Roberts and former Dodger-great
"Sweet" Lou Johnson. This welcomed community outreach
program recognizes children for their achievements both
in and outside of the classroom and focuses on the theme
of T.E.A.M. (Teamwork, Effort, Attitude and Motivation).
The program will begin with a motivational session
featuring Dodger Dave Roberts and former Dodger-great
"Sweet" Lou Johnson. Following the motivational session,
the young leaders will be treated to performances by
local musicians and dancers. The LADWP Diversity exhibit
will also be on-hand staffed by members of the LADWP
Speakers Bureau to educate the kids about water
