Subway's writing contest specifically excludes homeschoolers

Subway's story writing contest entry page specifically states that homeschoolers can not enter. I am sure it is because the top prize is $5,000 in athletic equipment 'for your school' but it could be for a homeschool group or even donated to a local school or athletic club of our choice if a homeschooler won. They could have come up with something without being this discriminatory. This has been floating around on the homeschool loops and I am sure a lot of you have already seen this, so feel free to contact them and let them know how you feel if you so choose. I am sure they are going to love hearing from the millions of homeschoolers who are out there....bummer too we occasionally eat at certain Subways when we are out but no longer, we will go to more homeschool friendly restaurants--or at least ones that don't specifically state 'homeschoolers not welcome' in their contact rules.-Tabbi
