Spring Fling Poetry Contests

Picture


Winners of the 2017 Spring Fling contests were celebrated at the Spring Fling Banquet.  All in attendance enjoyed hearing the winning poems as well as a delicious buffet. 

Much thanks to Lynn Grice for her tireless effort in coordinating the contests!  Also deep gratitude to Maxine Kohanski for the lovely atmosphere she always creates for this celebration.

Lynn has list of winners and will include that list in the June newsletter.
Poetry Society of Texas and National Federation of State Poetry Societies also sponsor annual contests for both members and non-members.  NFSPS runs their contest from January 1st thru March 15th.  PST opens their contest in May and entries are due by mid-August. 


In addition to these sister societies there are many contest opportunities nationally.  Poets and Writers has information that represents a good cross-section of the poetry scene.   This website is massive so be patient about locating very specific info.
