Second annual Interact video contest

Grab a camera and create a short video about this year's theme, "How do you Interact?", for a chance to have your entry featured at www.rotary.org and to receive a certificate signed by RI President Ray Klinginsmith.
The contest gives participants the opportunity to tell the world about the impact Interact has made on their lives, while bringing Interactors and Rotarians closer together.
"They are still celebrating," says Virginia Barr, liaison to the Interact Club of Communities-in-Schools at the South Carolina Department of Juvenile Justice, USA, which was the 2009 Interact video contest grand-prize winner.
"Giving Back Through Interact" was directed and produced by Interactors enrolled in the Communities in Schools curriculum at the juvenile corrections facility in Columbia, with help from adviser Andy Broughton, an employee of the Juvenile Justice Department.
"It really became an avenue for them to share what the Interact club has meant to them," says Barr, a member of the sponsor Rotary Club of Lake Murray-Irmo. "It changed their perspective on where they fit in the community and reinforced to them that they are indeed a part of the community."
"We didn't think we could make a video, but we did," says Jalen, 17, a member of the Interact club. "I discovered it feels good to do things for others and not get anything back."
