A couple weeks ago, we asked readers to help us pick a new nickname or slogan for the city of Everett.
The responses were overwhelming. Some 70 entries were submitted. Some were whimsical, some were serious and some were a little tongue in cheek, such as “We wished we had never changed the name from Port Gardner Bay.”
A panel of editors in the newsroom boiled down the entries to five semifinalists. And we’re asking readers to help us once again by voting for the best nickname or slogan. The winner will get a night out at the ballgame with some friends.
The five nominees are:
* Inlet Jewel – Watch us shine
* E town
* Diamond by the Bay
* Jewel of the Northwest
* Sky High City
To vote, call 425-339-3456 and select 1 for Inlet Jewel, 2 for E town, 3 for Diamond by the Bay, 4 for Jewel of the Northwest and 5 for Sky High City.
We’ll let the voting run through Wednesday, Aug. 9. Then we’ll announce the winner.
