Christmas Party and Contest Awards Event!

Hope your calendar is already marked for Saturday, December 12, 11:30 a.m to 1:30 p.m. for Shreveport Writers Club annual holiday festivity! This year we will also be honoring the winners of our biannual contests. The fun will take place in the community room at the front of the Broadmoor library branch, 1212 Captain Shreve Drive.

Last year, the party time just flew by and we have even more fun to enjoy this year. SWC member and professional musician Bill Conly and a friend will be playing music for our greeting and grazing time. Please bring a small platter of FINGER FOOD snacks to share -- no forks available! The club will provide drinks and paper goods.

There will be some time for SWC members to read SHORT holiday-themed writings, but we are asking you to keep selections to one or two pages so we have time to hear from those who want to share.

The awards ceremony for the 2009 Writing Contests will be an important part of the party. We had several entrants, and some winners, who are not SWC members and we expect some of them will be with us on the 12th. All first-, second- and third-place winners will be invited to read their selections at the first SWC meeting of the New Year, January 30.
