Cruising kid that needs our help

[Bill NH]

From the Cape Dory board - hope we can help her out with a few votes!

"A fellow sailor on the Cruising Sailor's Bulletin Board has a daughter, Olivia, who is in an online contest on behalf of her library and herself. Olivia could sure use votes from fellow sailors (link below).

Olivia, cruising kid (lived aboard for two years) and voracious reader, entered a national book review contest. The finalists were chosen by the sponsoring library, but the actual winner is chosen by PUBLIC VOTE. If she wins, she gets $1000 in books for her library and $500 in books for herself. Since her library just lost a massive amount of funding, she would really like to help them out.

Olivia's video is "YOUR CHICKENS, A KIDS GUIDE" and you can watch it and vote for it on the link below. Please vote EVERY DAY until midnight Eastern time Wednesday. She's neck-and-neck with another kid whose sister already won a previous category: they have their entire school disctict voting, which Olivia does not have, so she really needs all the support she can get!

See the video and VOTE here (YOUR CHICKENS By Gail Damerow)

(Personally, I think the videos should be judged on their merit rather than on how organized the kids' parents are, but apparently this is the way its done, so I am trying to help her out!!)

If you would like to pass the link on to any other friends, forums, or anywhere else you think folks might like to vote, please do so. It's going to be a very tight race and every vote helps! Thank you so much!"
