Thank you for responding. We're glad you are interested in being featured as a senior of the week. Please read ALL of the information below!
All seniors are featured on the Sports Page. Although your activity may not be considered a sport, what you contribute during sports events is vital to the atmosphere and spirit of the game and for this reason, we feel you deserve the same recognition as the players themselves.
To complete an article about you,we have listed several 'interview' questions below. Please copy/paste them into a word document, provide your answer below each question and email your completed interview along with a photograph (any clear, personal photo that was not taken by a paid or professional photographer unless it was Scott) to [email protected]. If a question on the list does not apply to you, please respond with 'n/a'.
Please note that the Chatsworth Times requires articles from us that are at least 500 words in length. If we do not have enough information to build an article of this length, we will not be able to feature you, so please remember that too much information is better than too little. Therefore when answering questions thoroughness will really help us! For example, if we ask 'At what age did you start doing this?' instead of simply giving an answer such as 'four', consider a longer answer. Example 'I began lessons when I was four, but before that, my mom was teaching me how to do it."
If this invitation has been extended to you, there is a very good chance you will be in the paper but for clairity purposes we do have to note that it is not guaranteed.
Seniors are typically featured during their 'season'. Therefore, if your are most active in this activity in January, but we receive your information in September, we will hold onto your info and feature it in January when you are actively involved.
