Hey Guys,
This opportunity is something that was sent to me. Below is all of the info that I have. I am not planning to do a contest, but wanted to pass on the info in case one of you wanted to head up something.

Hi--I have uploaded 2 files regarding the American Legion Oratorical Contest Scholarship Program. It is a speaking contest based on the US Constitution. State winners win a LOT of scholarship money from American Legion, but there almost every public and private college in the state give even more money to that winner. There is also a national winner.
Homeschooled kids are welcome. Schools must have contests by Feb. 17--the Lee County District contest is Feb. 23. Kids in a cover school can certainly apply and I don't think it would be hard for cover school groups to pull together a contest of their interested kids.
Please check out this opportunity---Mike Kosalapoff, a retired teacher from AHS, now part-time at Lyman Ward, is the contact. He is very interested in this reaching homeschooled kids. His email is kosalapoff@bellsouth.net.
Good luck! Lots of smart kids out there could take home some serious college money!
