SCLLN Writer to Writer
Awards ◯ 2019
We are excited to announce the winners
and runners-up for the 2019 Writer to
Writer Challenge! We had a great
response—95 entries—and the quality of the letters was amazing!
We are so proud of all the learners who
wrote letters. Each letter was a
beautiful expression of the learner’s thoughts and feelings. The ones selected as winners and runners-up
most closely met the contest criteria, but as one coordinator said, every
letter had its own “pizzazz.”
Please join other writers, tutors,
coordinators and their guests at our conference lunch presentation on Saturday,
March 21, at the Holiday Inn Buena Park
The winners and runners-up will each
receive a cash prize and a certificate, and all letter writers will receive a
certificate of participation.
We encourage all coordinators to invite
and sponsor all your writers and their tutors for this special event.
The registration fees are only $15 for
learners and $35 for tutors/staff (early bird, SCLLN member) and are an
appropriate use of CLLS grant funding.
Inviting your Writer to
Writer participants would be an excellent way to recognize our writers and
their tutors. Congratulations to all our
letter writers!
