SD Finalist | National Geographic Bee 2013


hi I’m mark van der Zee and I live in
Brookings South Dakota and go to George
S Mickelson middle school I am 14 years
old and on the Brookings swim team I
have two brothers and one sister and my
favorite food is Hawaiian pizza
my favorite geography fact is that
Harney Peak is a tallest mountain east
of the Rockies till you get to Europe
I like to watch TV shows about geography
and culture and history and I like to
read books a lot and that’s how I learn
a lot of those things and watch the news
if I could go anywhere in the world i
would go to New York City to see all the
tall buildings since there’s not really
much many things here in South Dakota
and see the Statue of Liberty
if you came to South Dakota you would
want to go to the badlands badlands
national park and go to the Black Hills
which is where Mount Rushmore and Crazy
Horse are found and hunting here is
great and the Missouri River with you
aah lake oahe is a great boating and
fishing place thank you very much
