NLW Poetry Contest

Congratulations to the winners of the Franklin Lakes Public Library's first Teen Poetry Contest!
Justin, a freshman at Indian Hills High School, received First Prize: a $50 American Express Gift Card.

Kevin, a sophomore at Indian Hills High School, received Second Prize: a $25.00 Starbucks Gift Card.

Marielle, a sophomore at Indian Hills High School, received Third Prize: a $25.00 Starbucks Gift Card.

The Teen Poetry Contest was part of the celebration of National Library Week 2008.

At Franklin Lakes Public Library and area schools, teens were given a contest entry form and encouraged to create original poems or song lyrics. We received 11 awesome poems or songs, and three winners were chosen. Copies of the winning entries can also be found in the library. Thank you so much to all the teens who submitted entries for this contest - It made the job of choosing just three winners very difficult for the judges! Thank you for your participation.
