Dear Lowlanders,

In the meantime the newspaper changed the URL of the online article. So I
had to change that at Hanne's website.

While I was at it, I added a picture taken with Hanne's camera. To see it,
please scroll down on the pages linked to above.

Also, I added a link to a video report about the award ceremony. Yes, there
are snippets of our Hanne receiving her prize and talking in German and Low
Saxon! Again, please scroll down on the pages linked to above to find the
link to the video.

By the way, one of the two junior prize winners is only 12 years old! The
other one, who speaks in the video, is 16 years old. All but one of the
winners (the 22 year old fellow who received the 2nd prize and comes
from Münster
in the Westphalian "far" west) are from what used to be East Germany.

Enjoy!

Regards,
Reinhard/Ron
