You know who you are. Now is the time to strategize and get your friends to fire your competitors. The big prize is just a few weeks away. An Internship at the AESC and $5,000 in cash. All contestants must be available to attend the June 24th grand finale.

Final voting day for remaining three teams: June 21st @ 5pm

Top three teams will be invited to appear in front of a live audience and a winner will be announced.
During the evening we will have a twist to the contest.

A wild card team will be brought back at the finale on Monday, June 24th at Finnegan's.  The wild card team will be selected from the eliminated contestants, based on their Positive Change proposals, as well as the exposure provided for their non-profit organization. This component is not based on dollars earned but on their proposed plan, and innovative ideas. All teams must be present at finale to be eligible for the wild card spot.

Be sure to update your blogs so that supporters can follow your journey through the Freshman contest.

Good luck everyone.
