The West Bladen National Anthem

My name is Hayley Hall and I am 15 years old. I've been singing ever since I was 3. I love to sing, and I believe that it will take me far. I attend West Bladen High School in Bladenboro, NC. They have an organization called Skills USA. I competed with contendors from across the US and have won national champion in SkillsUSA's annual The National Anthem contest. I have won the honor of going to Kansas City, MO this Summer and singing the National Anthem at the start of SkillsUSA's annual convention. I also am in line to sing The National Anthem at the Kansas City Royal's game at the end of the convention. Due to county budget restraints with our school system and the lack of grants for arts functions, I am being required to pay for my trip and other expenses out of pocket. So Youtube, PLEASE help me out! It will cost $2,500 altogether for my trip and room for the week. Costs for the registration and the room are set by national SkillsUSA, so there is no wiggle room. If you want to help me suceed, please send donations to Hayley Hall at: Sherry and Hayley Hall, PO Box 249, Elizabethtown, NC 28337. It is my dream to represent America with The National Anthem, proudly sung, by the girl from the third poorest county in North Carolina. Only in America . . .

Very nice! Now you need to upload one taken at a more formal event without people hollering out for you like they've never been taught to be reverent during the anthem. You could use that in a more professional digital portfolio. Also, I'd pick out a few songs you really enjoy singing and record and upload them onto Youtube. You never know who might "discover" you on here. ....then of course I get a cut of whatever your career earnings are for all of the sage advice :)

@dcimonkey Thanks for the advice. I plan to audition for American Idol in September.
