TEEN WRITING COMPETITION
HITS THE SMALL SCREEN
AND ONLINE VOTING BEGINS SOON!
Back in March, 13 students from grades 5-12 entered a unique writing contest at the Shrewsbury Public Library. They had three hours to write a story that would take only three minutes to read and present to what they thought would be a small crowd.
There were a couple of surprises though, and one of them is that they would not only be reading their stories for the other participants, but also for the entire Shrewsbury community.

Thanks to SETV Channel 29 and Library Trustee Laurie Hogan, the presentations will soon be airing for a two-to-three week period in which online voting will be conducted. The 40 minute program will let the public decide who they think did the best job. The student who receives the most votes will win a special prize!
So tune in and catch the presentations, and then come back here to vote.
Voting will begin soon and run for about two weeks.
