Last week, the Stamford Advocate/Greenwich Time announced a story contest for kids about the presidential office. Kids in 4th - 8th grade are eligible. Winners can receive up to $50!

As an ex-employee, I feel obligated to say that it is "Greenwich Time" -- no s. It is a pun on Greenwich Mean Time that almost no one gets.
Other than that, keep it up, Meg!
