The Youth Noise Green Schools Media Challenge is on!

Currently my video about Our School at Blair Grocery is in 2nd place behind this cute little blonde girl.  The current vote leader is a very well produced video about a very smart & capable girl and the projects she has implemented in her schools. Really Good Stuff and I'm throughly impressed with the video and what she has achieved ... If you wanna help me kick her ass ;~) go to the link below and vote for my video.

TWO winning videos will get played on Link TV and shown at the Redford Institute.  There is also a smattering of swag involved (clothes duffles, cds, etc).
