I was sent an email about this competition, I checked the rules and it looks like it's only open to those of you in the USA, but it's definitely worth checking it out. Great opportunity to get that story out there.
I wish I could enter, but alas I'm in the UK. Good luck to anyone that does choose to enter, thought I would share it with you.
