Submissions are due by October 1st. You may email your entry to Chairman Connolly (chairman@fairfaxcounty.gov) and don't forget to include the following items:
your poem
your name and grade
your address and phone number
your email
The Cool Counties Concert & Poetry Slam will be Saturday, October 6th from noon-3 p.m. at Mason District Park
6621 Columbia Pike
Annandale
The event is free and open to the public, so even if you don't want to enter a poem, it'll be a great day of exploring. Lots of Fairfax County and local environmental organizations will be there providing info about global warming and things that all of us can do to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Students, if you go to the event, write a few sentences about what you learned and bring it to our October 15th meeting. We'd love to hear what you have to say!
