Youth Poetry Contest calling for entries

The Nodaway News Leader will be accepting submissions of poetry in celebration of National Poetry Month in April.

Young people are encouraged to submit poetry for a chance to win Chamber Bucks and the opportunity to be published in the newspaper. All types of poetry will be accepted.

There are three age divisions to the contest: kindergarten through fourth grade, fifth through eighth grade and high school.

Entries will be accepted through April 16. On each original work, include the following: entry title, author’s name, school attending and grade level.
