I want to let everyone know that the Acton Library in Old Saybrook is currently accepting submissions for their annual poetry contest. Please take a look at their flyer for all the details. It’s always a good contest, and the reading they host for the winners is great to attend, whether you enter or not. We’ve had many of our fellows recognized (last year Laurie was among the winners).

Greetings all. We will have a meeting this week, on Tuesday, Feb. 7 in the Guilford Community Center in the Alexander Lounge at 7 pm.  Hope to see you there.

This is a reminder that we will meet on Tuesday, Jan. 17 at 7 p.m. in the Local History Room of the Scranton Library in Madison.  Hope to see you there.

New Year Poem by May Sarton

 

 

Say hello to 2017, and join us on Tuesday, Jan. 3 in the Alexander Lounge Room of the Guilford Community Center at 7 p.m. Please bring your own work to share, and also feel free to bring a work by another published poet to read.

Since it’s the start of a new year, we can also discuss any writing-related goals you might have for the year, and find out if there are any ways the group can help/support that goal.

Greetings all. We will have a meeting on Tuesday, Dec. 20 in the Scranton Library in Madison (in their local history room). I hope to see you there.

In the meantime, check out out this Billy Collins reading his poem “Envoy.”

Just a quick reminder that we will have a meeting tomorrow night, Tuesday, December 6 in the Guilford Community Center at 7 p.m.  Hope to see you there.

I wanted to express my thanks to all who attend our reading last weekend and donated so much food. I had the distinct privilege to drop it off at the Guilford Food Bank this morning… it was quite an impressive amount and I could tell the woman who accepted it was grateful.  Thanks again.

And, we will have a meeting next Tuesday, Nov. 15 in the local history room of the Madison Library at 7 p.m. Hope to see you there.

Wishing a Happy Veterans Day to all who have served and their families. Your sacrifices should always be honored.

Greetings all. We will have a meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 1 at 7 p.m. in the Guilford Community Center in the Leete Room. Hope to see you there.
