I just received an e-mail inviting students (grades 1 through12) who go to school in Chester County to enter the Pennsylvania Writing and Literature Project's fourth annual e-poetry contest.
The first-place winner in each category (grades 1 and 2, 3 through 5, 6 through 8, and 9 through 12, and a separate sonnet category for grades 9 through 12) will receive a full scholarship to a summer Young Writers camp.
Deadline for submissions is March 31, 2012. Poems should be e-mailed as a Word document attachment to: PAWLP@wcupa.edu.
"Winners will be notified during Poetry Month in April, with a celebration for the winners and their families at the Chester County Book and Music Company in West Goshen on May 3, 2012 at 6:30 p.m. The top 3 winners in each category receive a certificate, a writer's toolbox, and public recognition of their poem on the PA Writing & Literature Project website (www.pawlp.org) and in the Chester County Library in Exton."
There's also a category for teachers: "The winning teacher will receive a certificate to attend a Fall or Spring PAWLP workshop and a gift card."
If you have any questions, e-mail pawlp@wcupa.edu or call 610-436-3089.
