Today was the state-wide competition for the Pennsylvania Middle School Computer Fair was held at Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pa.  As you know, my daughter Sarah has her Civil War Sallie project and she had entered her project in the Web Page Design Category.   Well, I’m here to tell you that Sarah and Sallie took 1st place today.  We are very proud of all the hard work Sarah has put into Civil War Sallie.

Here is a photo of Sarah prior to the start of the judging:

and here is Sarah with her ceremonial check:

Sallie is looking for Civil War museums, battlefields and classrooms learning about Civil War to visit.  She would love to come visit you in order to learn more about the Civil War while sharing her experiences on her blog or Flickr page.

Please go and check out Sallie’s home page and if you teach the Civil War, live or work near a Civil War battlefield or museum sign up to have Sallie come visit you.

Congratulations to Sarah and Civil War Sallie.  Next up for Sarah is the National Educational Computing Conference where she will be participating in the student showcase while Sallie will be traveling to Andersonville Prison in Georgia.
