Once the participant has registered, he or she will receive the writing prompt, essay guidelines and additional information to assist them in submitting their 500 – 750 word essay.
The contest will be divided into two categories. One category is for students grades 6-8 and the second category is for students grades 9-12.

The winners of the two categories will receive a special prize. All participants will receive a participation certificate.
Is this contest limited to the Hampton, VA area? I was going to share but thought I should check first.
