Local Girl Hopes To Sing Her Way To Washington In National YouTube Contest

April 5, 2009

A local girl hopes to sing her way via YouTube  to a historic event in Washington for Flag Day.

daniellscott11.jpgErnest Ward Middle School student Danielle Scott of Walnut Hill is taking part in a contest called “O Say Can You Sing” sponsored in part by the Smithsonian National Museum of American History. Participants upload video of themselves singing the National Anthem to YouTube. Danielle’s video is at the bottom of this article.

The grand prize winner of the contest will be invited to perform the National Anthem at the museum in Washington, D.C. and at the Baltimore Orioles vs. Atlanta Braves game, both on Flag Day, June 14. The prize includes a trip for two to Washington, D.C., including airfare and three nights hotel accommodations; tickets and transportation to a Baltimore Orioles baseball game; and $400 in spending money.

If you do not see the YouTube video above, it is because your school or employer is blocking YouTube videos. Try watching the video from your home internet connection.
