  • Present: Five ways my Interact club makes the world a better place
  • Future: Interact 2062 -- How Interact will change the world in the next 50 years
“I think the most enjoyable part of our contest experience was watching students engage with one another to achieve a goal,’’ says Laurie Coburn, sponsor  of the Interact Club of Episcopal School of Knoxville, Tennessee, USA, which won the grand prize in last year’s contest.
The club’s winning video, Change 4 Change, chronicles the middle school students’ schoolwide project to raise funds for and awareness of Rotary’s End Polio Now campaign. 
“Students were willing to put in extra time and effort to accomplish something outside of themselves for others,” says Coburn. “Middle school students get a bad reputation for being selfish, but when someone is in need, you can count on them to be the first to volunteer to help. It was a fabulous experience for all of us.”

Jack, who organizes the Wellymoot Tolkien Society, would also like to get the word out about the box office at the Embassy Theatre.
It looks like Wellington MAY have a line party. We held Welly-moot (the meeting of Wellington’s Tolkien enthusiasts) at the Embassy Theatre yesterday. I spoke to the Elly, the manager there, and asked her when Hobbit tickets to the December 13th opening would be available. She said at 12:01am Nov 7th (online), and 09:00am next morning (physical box office). I asked her if she would consider opening the physical box office at midnight as well, and she said she’d consider it IF she got enough demand for it.
Please if you know anyone in Wellington who wants to stand in line for the world’s FIRST official tickets (keep in mind our midnight happens an hour before anyone else’s midnight!!), get them to send an email to Elly, the manager of Wellington’s Embassy Theatre, at manager@deluxe.co.nz, with a subject of “Please open the Box Office at 12:0am, Nov 7th for Hobbit Tickets!”. If it opens, I plan to be there on the night – let’s see how many others we can get to join us!
Elly is a very nice person, and TOTALLY enthusiastic about The Hobbit, so please be nice to her when you email her!
There is a lot going on for Hobbit fans in New Zealand! If you live in Wellington, please join Jack in emailing Elly at the Embassy Theatre. And if she does open up early for all of the Hobbit fans, I’m sure she wouldn’t complain if you brought her some coffee and a breakfast pastry!
