 |  |  | The Community Player Award Scholarships for 2011 In keeping with its long tradition of honoring youth in the greater Lowell area, The Greater Lowell Chamber of Commerce, created an annual scholarship several years ago to honor the ideals of commitment to community and to demonstrate their long-standing commitment to the youth of our community. In June, 2011, The Community Player Award Scholarships will be awarded to a young man and young woman who are seniors in one of the Greater Lowell High Schools. The winners will be announced and awarded their scholarships at a home game of the Lowell Spinners. Call 978-459-8154 for more details. |  |

The Downtown Lowell Business Committee (DLBC) is a committee of the Greater Lowell Chamber of Commerce that focuses on the following:
• Generating downtown foot traffic
• Business advocacy and representation
• Marketing and Cross-marketing
We are the sponsors of or partners on many events that occur in the Downtown Lowell area (see the back of this sheet for information). We also look for new opportunities to draw foot traffic to the city. We sit on many committees such as City of Lights Parade, Folk Festival, Winterfest, Halloween Bash and many other event planning committees. The DLBC hosts Santa throughout the holiday months and is the founder of the Art Walk, Great Plates of Downtown Lowell and the Student Welcome event. We are committed to marketing the downtown businesses whenever possible and establishing relationships that will allow us to cross-market the downtown with other organizations.
