Title Town banner hung, discounts extended
Designed by Keith Heckert, art director in UDs Office of Public Relations, the banner celebrates the football championships won by UD and Newark High School in 2003. It features both schools mascots and athletic achievements and announces Newark as Title Town. The city and DNP jointly funded banner production and installation. On Feb. 10, Newark declared itself Title Town in honor of the football championships, and the UD Bookstore, UD Dining Services and downtown Newark merchants are offering special Title Town discounts on goods and services to celebrate. Those discounts have been extended through March 31. National championship merchandise is available at University Booktore locations and online. Beginning Monday, March 8, the UD Bookstore will take 25 percent off all national championship clothing. Last fall, Herlocher Foods Inc. of State College, Pa., introduced a Fightin Blue Hen salsa and dipping mustard. The mustard is featured in a line of specialty sandwiches at Dining Services. The sandwiches and other Dining Services food specials are available through March 31 at the following locations:
Also look for Title Town posters in windows on Main Street for more than 60 Newark merchants offering special discounts in celebration of the football championships. The specials offered are as diverse as the businesses providing them. For example, Newark Newsstand is offering 50 percent off all 2004 calendars and 10 percent off New York Times best sellers. Youve Been Framed is offering 10-60 percent off select items, including framed UD and Newark prints. Restaurants and eateries are offering discounts of 10-20 percent, as well as buy one, get one entrees. Personal service establishments are offering discounts on products and services, and professional service businesses are also participating by providing free subscriptions to professional journals, free consultations and giveaways.
