Maggie Baker, the eighth grade daughter of Jeff and Wendy Baker, has been notified by the National Geographic Society that she is one of the semifinalists eligible to compete in the 2010 Washington Geographic Bee.

Geographic Bees were held in schools with fourth- through eight-grade students throughout the state to determine each school's winner. School-level winners then took a qualifying test, which they submitted to the National Geographic Society. The top 100 scores in each state then compete.
