The winners in the Tourism / Sports / Entertainment category are:
First Place Winner: Michael Baker
Idea Name: Kid Friendly Anaheim
Their great application idea:
I would like to see an application that allowed visitors to Anaheim to find out at anytime activities that are happening in Anaheim that are kid friendly, ie. parks hours, G movie showtimes, theme park hours, youth center hours etc.
How the idea helps:
Citizens of Anaheim as well as visitors to this community will be able to find youth friendly activities in the palm of their hand.
Second Place Winner: Mary Lou Parisi
Idea Name: What’s Up Today
Their great application idea:
Give the daily scoop of sports events, conventions, Disneyland Resort hours and any special event there. Also movie openings or restaurant specials. Maybe include a road closure or detour. Has to be specific to that day only.
How the idea helps:
Tourists or residents go to what’s up to make choices of where to go, what to do saving time by listing each day’s events like movies, Honda Center, Anaheim Stadium, Convention, Disneyland Resort, etc. what’s up lists it all by each day.
Third Place Winner: Mei-Lin Quinn
Idea Name: Routes and Parking
Their great application idea:
It would be nice have a live map and an app that helps with routing and parking during a game. For example, a live map you can access on your way to an Angel game that will help you get to a parking area with prices that has the shortest line.
How the idea helps:
It will help cut down on the stress of parking and driving around during a game.
