September is Hispanic Heritage Month and Governor Charlie Crist has invited Florida students in kindergarten through 12th grades to participate in the seventh annual Florida Hispanic Heritage Month student contests. The contests are part of a month-long series of events planned to commemorate Florida’s Hispanic heritage. The theme for this year’s celebration is “Florida: Embracing Its Hispanic Roots While Looking to the Future.”
You can visit www.FloridaHispanicHeritage.com to read about Florida’s Hispanic heritage, as well as learn about the art, essay and podcast contests.
The contest deadlines occur on September 16. Contest winners will be notified the week of October 5, 2009. Awards will be presented at the Governor’s annual Hispanic Heritage Month celebration in Tallahassee in October.
All contest entries must be mailed to the Executive Office of the Governor, Attention: Hispanic Heritage Month Contests, 400 South Monroe Street, Suite LL-10, Tallahassee, Florida 32399. All contest entries must be by postmarked by September 16, 2009, and each student is limited to one entry per contest.
