The Today Show has launched a contest for young Harry Potter fans in the US to win a trip to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter this spring. A video explaining the contest can be seen below.

Quote:
By answering the question “Why is my class extraordinary?”, you could be part of a group on a three-day, two-night trip to the opening celebration festivities of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal’s Islands of Adventure in Orlando, Florida.
The judging criteria is based on the following: Originality and Creativity (30%), Responsiveness to Question (30%), Camera Readiness (20%), and Clarity of Communication (20%).
The deadline for entries is March 19. Winners will be chosen through online voting from April 23 to 29. [Editor's note: This would indicate that the Wizarding World will open in either May or June.] Complete rules can be found here.
Also, the Wizarding World's official site has been revamped, featuring concept art for all the attractions, including the shops, rides, and Hogwarts castle. The images can be seen in our galleries.
The Wizarding World of Harry Potter will open this spring.

Wow, that's such an interesting contest, I wish all of the teachers entering it a lot of luck! I know one teacher on SS who will probably be entering it
Aaahh, It's a shame though, because I'm NEVER going to be able to afford to go there.

Great! If I was still in second grade, I would try to get my class to enter b/c that year my teacher had us read the first novel (from then I became a fanatic ). But considering that I'm in high school, I don't know if I could convince any of my six classes to go. Besides, even if I was able to get us entered, people who vote online'll probably vote for the cute little kids. But still, good luck to all who enter!
