Support a young chicken activist!
The posting below (from our forum) is from Olivia, a young urban chicken activist, and her mother Stacey, about Olivia's chicken keeping video which is a finalist in a national contest. The link to the video is below...and it is great! Be sure to also check out their wonderful SoPo Chickens website (which was recently updated). Read the posting below and show your support by voting for Olivia's video.
Hi everyone!
My daughter, Olivia, who successfully campaigned out city to change the zoning law last summer, has a new project.
She 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 school 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 from today till next Wednesday. There have been 3 other categotories and all of the winners have organized huge voting campaigns on internet bulletin boards and the like, so this is the only chance she has.
(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.
Thank you so much!!
Stacey and Olivia
Good luck Olivia! You have the support of many fellow chicken keepers.
