High school and college undergraduates reside in California’s 1st Senate District may enter a video contest. The theme  is The Bill of Rights and You.

State Sen.Ted Gaines, R-El Dorado, is hosting the contest.

Participants must choose a constitutional amendment within the Bill of Rights and create a two-to five-minute video illustrating how it has benefited them. The videos may feature live people, stills, animation – whatever best conveys the message.

Videos can be submitted now through Nov. 20. Two winners – one high school and one college – living in or attending school within the 1st Senate District will be selected by Gaines and will each receive a $300 cash prize and be invited to the Capitol in Sacramento for a meeting with Gaines and a VIP tour of the building. The winning videos will also be posted to Gaines’ website.

All details about the contest, including the rules and entry form are available online.
