Introducing...

THE Almost-As-Grand CHALLENGE!!!

~ How to Qualify ~

1st: Be a member of the Hittygirls Yahoo Group, registered no later that July 17, 2009

2nd: Do you own a creation of any kind made by TC Vollum?
If you answered yes, then you qualify!  Yippee!!!

~ How to Play ~

1st: Qualify

2nd: You must photograph your Hitty re-enacting a scene-any scene-from the book Hitty, Her First Hundred Years, by Rachel Field.

3rd: Submit your photograph to ME (Martha...email provided below.)  (If it is larger than 700x700, I will have to resize it, and you may not like the results, so please be sure it is not a huge, honkin' picture!)

4th: Wait patiently for me to get it up on the Hittygirls site, and enjoy the pictures from other entrants as well.

5th: Though this is a challenge, and not a contest, we still want you to do your best...entries should be clear and well presented.

Entries close on July 27th, 2009.  (This gives everyone two weekends...).
Please email entries to hitty_martha @ yahoo. com  (take out the spaces first...)

Winner will be drawn at random after the challenge closes.  (See...no harsh judging or picking favorites...that's why it's a challenge and not a contest.)
