Back-to-School Scavenger Hunt Contest!

2:43 AM, Oct. 3, 2006

While most of you have been back to school since the beginning of September, I thought I'd go ahead with this contest now that all of you have had time to get settled into your schedules. It's time to start thinking blog! Mainly, to help get bloggers interested in the Company Porch, and in checking out other blogs here at HSB.

This contest is for everyone 18 years of age or older, inside or outside of HSB. The contest will last for two weeks, ends October 17th.

Here's the contest in three easy steps:

1. Tell everyone about the contest, as well as copy and paste the below text about the prize on your blog/website. Be sure to link back to this contest.

2. Leave a comment here on this contest entry with the URL of where you posted the prize text.

3. Find the 20 graphics below throughout HSB and e-mail me me the URL's of where you found them! Hint: These are not obscure blogs, and they are all on HSB.

So what's the fantastic prize for being the one with the most correct answers and all that hard work?

Contest winner will receive the BRAND NEW Homeschool Version of Auralog’s Tell me More Spanish® software. Valued for its speech recognition technology and personalized language courses Tell me More® has over 5 million users worldwide. This complete, four level set covers reading and writing, listening and speaking, grammar, vocabulary and culture. A $245 value!! Learn more HERE and don’t miss out on your chance to win!

Don't forget you want to use the text right there above for your own blog entry to enter the contest.

Now for the graphics! Remember, it's Back-to-School.

There they all are. Now go find them!

In the event of a tie one entrant will be chosen at random.
