Thank you so much for posting about this. <br /><br />Do you have someone working with you on your website? http://www.usaaao.org/ is a bit sparse in information. It'd be great to know what schools are participating and how others can get involved. <br /><br />Also, what organization were you able to get to sponsor you? I'm very interested to hear who should share the praise. <br /><br />Thanks!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13337278557841102817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6374266320411149509.post-44891265114741929792013-06-12T14:38:16.531-04:002013-06-12T14:38:16.531-04:00Hi, This year we are trying to, our site is usaaao...Hi, This year we are trying to, our site is usaaao.org, we are competing in the International Astronomy and Astrophysics Olympiad (ioaa)GBerndt SKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01769591138885914638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6374266320411149509.post-76816550504234743212013-06-01T10:45:33.647-04:002013-06-01T10:45:33.647-04:00I created a petition to bring this to the attentio...I created a petition to bring this to the attention of the AAS: http://www.change.org/petitions/american-astronomical-society-create-a-national-astronomy-olympiad-2 <br /><br />Please sign this, it'll mean a lot to me and other I the rested high schoolers!
