Since Morris was picked as the All-American City Finalist in 2004, it would be �cool� to show that through our website. With our college-campus community, we will be getting students coming and leaving. Many of them not knowing the interesting �facts� and �attractions� of this awesome unique town in the prairie. Having a �innovated� website can clearly show and explain this via internet with just a click of the button. The internet has become a �big resource� on getting quick information and will continue to be in this 21st �high technological� century.
MORRIS CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
-put tourist/attractions with photos: Scandia Church (first church building in Stevens County-located northwest of town), Water Tower, West Central Gardens
-links of annual events with past photos: Prairie Pioneer Days, Horticulture Night, Lights Parade, etc�
-3D visual viewing of Atlantic Avenue (taken from the center point, like 7th & Main Street)
CITY OF MORRIS
-a small video of Mayor Wilcox welcoming homepage guests
-change logo of city's website (suggested by a Hancock resident)
Overall Suggestions:
-have a Morris Chamber Cash sponsored photo contest for the best pictures of these proposed photos to be put on the web
-re �search� other city websites
-who is our big audience: elderly (use big fonts), college students (use high-tech graphic features), kids (use animated cartoons)
Over the 9+ years (UMM 99� Alumn) living in Morris, I�ve made many personal websites of this town, especially after taking part of the 15-delegate All American City Team to Atlanta in 2004. Feel free to check this website and many others that we don�t know off (e.g. via �search engines�):
