Their video is one of only 20 chosen! They won $2,500 and they are now in the running for the $20,000 grand prize and a lifetime supply of Trident gum! But they need your help. On Friday, Sept. 10th, vote for Cassidy's video by clicking here. Voting is only open until midnight on Friday, so don't delay! Congratulations to Cassidy and her friends, Chyna Degingger of Port St. Lucie High School and Shelby Parker
