Sponsored by the West Custer County Library & KLZR
The West Custer County Library in partnership with Radio Station KLZR are co-sponsoring a poetry contest beginning April 1st and ending April 30th at 5:30 p.m. Poets of all ages are welcome to submit an original poem. All completed work must be submitted by April 30th. Poetry contestants will be divided into three categories: adults, teens, and youth. Submissions will be judged by library staff, and the three winners will be notified in early May. A gift certificate will be awarded to one adult, one teenager, and one youth respectively.
All submissions must include your name and contact information along with a check mark to indicate if you are a youth, teen or adult (see below). Download the form, complete it and return it to cathy@westcusterlibrary.org by email. For more information on this free library event, please email the Adult Services Librarian Cathy McCarthy at cathy@westcusterlibrary.org.
