After touring C-SPAN's Campaign 2012 Bus Wednesday morning at Westminster College, Fulton Middle School students were inspired to consider entering a nationwide C-SPAN video contest.

Four 6th grade students of Heather Yates' social studies class at Fulton Middle School decided they would like to create a video to enter into the contest for a chance to win up to $5,000. The students were told that they could create an individual video or in groups of three students.

The four Fulton Middle School students are Jonah Preston, Lucas Desmit, Gabe Luebbert, and Nathan Quick.
