Okay, here’s a real poetry contest

The Kentucky State Poetry Society is accepting entries for its 2006 Student Poetry Contest for grades 1 – 12. Deadline for entries is March 1, 2006.

Follow the link for guidelines. Although the web page still says 2005 as of this posting, the rules and categories remain the same. The reading this year will be at the KSPS’s Annual Awards Weekend, see below.

One entry per student. Entries should consist of two copies, one with the student’s name, address, age, grade, name and address of school and teacher’s name in the upper right corner. The other copy should have only the name of the category in the upper left hand corner. No identifying information should be given on this copy, which will be sent to the judges.

Winners will be announced in April. First place winners will be published in Pegasus. Poems that place or get an honorable mention will be on display at the KSPS Annual Awards Weekend, October 13-14 2006 at Blue Licks Battlefield State Resort Park.
