Celebrate 20 Years at our Annual Picnic!

At our annual picnic, October 16, 2011, 2 pm, NCWN-West or Netwest will celebrate its 20th anniversary! We will be in Hayesville, NC, at the Clay County Park (pavilion by the water). Our featured reader/speaker this year is NC poet, Scott Owens. All those attending should bring a covered dish, chair, and drink (plates, napkins, and silverware will be provided). Our meal will be followed by some brief remarks from myself as Program Coordinator, a reading from Scott Owens, and then open mike. Readings for the open mike session should consist of ONE PAGE of prose or two short poems per person. Time limit is 2.5 minutes. In order to accommodate as many readers as possible, please time your piece before reading.

I will be recognizing all county representatives throughout NCWN-West, and will send out requests for help (tablecloths, book sales table) in the near future. Please spread the word in your area so that as many people as possible can CARPOOL. Also, the public is invited to this picnic, so encourage anyone you know who may be interested in Netwest to attend! Press releases will be sent out to local papers in each county.
