host a press conference on Tuesday, March 5th 2013 at 9:30AM inside Chester
City Hall Council Chambers to announce Chester City as one of the 2013
DollarWise Grant Award recipients. Mayor Linder represented the City of
Chester during the 81st US Conference of Mayors Winter Meeting this past

Campaign award grant courtesy of the Bank of America Charitable Foundation.
Chester is among five cities awarded in addition to Wichita, St. Louis, Kokomo,
and Richmond. This grant will be used to support the financial literacy
component of Chester's summer youth program, the Chester City Employer Paid
Internship program.
