Student Essay Contest to Find the 50 Best Moms in San Diego

*** Essays Accepted February 16 to March 16 ***
SAN DIEGO, CALIF.

– Every mom is special, but some truly standout and deserve to be recognized for the sacrifices and dedication they've made for their children and their families. Time Warner Cable wants to know who they are. For the eighth straight year, Time Warner Cable is calling students in grades 4 through 12 to write essays of 150 to 500 words telling why their mom should be one of the best in San Diego.
In the past, essays have come in from San Diego kids with moms of all kinds – even a father and grandmother! Who knows what this year will bring? The essays will be judged by a panel of local journalists, politicians and teachers who will select the 50 Best Moms for 2009 based on the children’s explanation and why they believe their mom is the best. The writers of the three best essays will receive a new Sony VAIO laptop computer. There will be a winner from each school level: elementary, middle and high school. In addition, the winning students’ teachers will also each receive a $250 gift card for supplies for their classrooms.
The San Diego’s 50 Best Moms contest, presented by Time Warner Cable and radio partners KYXY-FM and Sophie 103.7 FM, will run from February 16 through March 16, 2009. Soap Network is also a sponsor.
