Well I just stumbled into several pieces of information that I wanted to post and share. I'm not sure how much of this would be an every year event or just a one shot this year, but take a look and see what is there.
Evaluate Online Information
World Book, Inc. has announced the World Book Fact or Fiction? Student Video Contest, inviting students to create an original video on what makes an online site a good information source. The contest encourages students to be discerning about the trustworthiness of the information they are finding online when they conduct research on topics for school or their personal interest. The contest is open to students in elementary, high school and college. Students get to vote for their favorite video from December 1, 2007 through January 7, 2008. The creator of the top vote-getting video will win a MacBook, and his or her school will receive a digital video camera. Deadline: November 30, 2007

Preserve and Protect the Environment
2008 SeaWorld/Busch Gardens/Fujifilm Environmental Excellence Awards recognize the outstanding efforts of students and teachers who work at the grassroots level to protect and preserve the environment. Eight projects will be selected, and each winning group will receive $10,000 to benefit the award-winning project; an all-expenses-paid trip for three students and one adult leader to an Anheuser-Busch theme park for a special awards event; a Fujifilm digital camera for use by the award-winning group—and more.
Deadline: November 30, 2007
