CE Group - Alamo Heights 100th Celebration

1. CITY OF ALAMO HEIGHTS
ADMINISTRATION AND FINANCE DEPARTMENT
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Buddy Kuhn, City Manager
SUBJECT: Consideration for a contract with the CE group to prepare for the City of Alamo
Heights 100th
Anniversary Celebration
DATE: January 10, 2022
SUMMARY
Consideration of an agreement with the CE group for planning of the City of Alamo Heights 100
year anniversary celebration in the amount of $39,500. The CE Group has a 30 year solid
reputation in the community and throughout the country. The CE group has vast experience in
planning large local events such as the grand opening of the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention
Center, Alamodome, Central Library, Doseum, Mission and Museum Reach on the San Antonio
River, Luminaria, Siclovia and the Men’s and Women’s Final Four.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Alamo Heights became a municipality in June 1922 and will celebrate its’ 100-year anniversary
in 2022. CE Group was selected in June of 2021 to begin planning and coordinate community
events and activities to celebrate the city’s centennial anniversary. While the official 100 year
anniversary will occur in June of 2022, we plan to kick off the celebration with the annual 5K
city fun run during Fiesta, continue with marketing through the official anniversary month in
June and further promote the event at the annual July 4th
parade. We are currently planning a
culmination of events in October starting with National Night Out with additional events over
the next week after that with nightly events throughout the community.
The budget for FY 2021-22 was budgeted at $20,000 and was amended on December 13th
, 2021
in an additional amount of $80,000. The amendment for the additional $80,000 is to pay for the
planning, coordinating and marketing associated with the 100-year anniversary activities and
events as well as other services such as reserving facilities if applicable, other hard costs such as
the rental of equipment and supplies, barricades and other yet unrealized expenses.
Centennial celebration activities are also scheduled in FY 2022-23 and that will be budgeted
during the budget process with council at an additional cost.
POLICY ANALYSIS
This amendment will allow city staff to continue coordinating and developing community
activities and events for the historic 100-year anniversary and is consistent with other
professional services agreements that the city routinely executes. The 50th
anniversary
celebration in 1972 was also coordinated by an event planning organization hired by the city.

2. FISCAL IMPACT
$39,500 for Phase II which includes Strategic Design and Consulting, Event and Production
Logistics for an open streets event currently planned for October 02, 2022 and Event and
Production Logistics for a Culminating Event currently planned for Saturday, October 08, 2022.

Over the last 30 years, there are very few of San Antonio’s most prestigious projects and events that haven’t been touched by
the expert hand of Janet Holliday. She has grown her company, The CE Group, to offer seven distinct services of experience-
based marketing expertise: event and production management, destination management, venue management, national sports
and events marketing, integrated communications, creative services (through Goods Collective), and curated experiences
(through Makers). This depth and breadth of services combined with the style, organizational skills, positive work ethic, and
radical customer dedication are the foundation of the company culture, has long positioned The CE Group as the leader in their
industry. As President and CEO, Janet is a highly sought-after expert in events and marketing, not only in Texas but
throughout the country. Janet has played a leading role in some of the city of San Antonio’s most celebrated hallmarks,
including the grand openings of the Alamodome, Central Library, the Mission and Museum Reach of the San Antonio River, The
DoSeum: San Antonio’s Museum for Kids, San Antonio International Airport, The Witte Museum, Henry B. Gonzalez
Convention Center expansion and transformation, and many more. Janet’s talent and creative resources have also been a
force in notable projects including Luminaria, Siclovia, NCAA Men’s and Women’s Final Four, the San Antonio Rock ‘n’ Roll
Marathon & Half Marathon and five San Antonio Spurs national championship parades.
