Youth Opportunities - Saturday February 19th, 2011

Saturday February 19th, 2011

[UPDATE: It may be useful to browse these old listings as many programs are annual, but for more current contests and competitions, head to the Youth Opportunities page.]

I actually don't have any new youth opportunities to post this week, but below is the summary of previously mentioned opportunities with deadlines.

Best of luck to anyone getting involved with something from the following list. Feel free to use the comment section to talk about your entry or experiences.

Happy Family Day weekend!
