WHAT:    The Los Angeles Dodgers and the Los Angeles Department of

         Jams is a school assembly featuring live music and
         entertainment combined with motivational messages from Dodger
         Alex Cora and former Dodger-great Al Downing. Designed to
         award students for achievement and encourage students to get
         involved in their community, the program will focus on the
         theme "It's all about T.E.A.M. -- Teamwork, Effort, Attitude
         and Motivation."
