We would like to thank our early sponsors of this program whose support will make for a great evening and fundraiser to support continued publication of The Teen Scene/Cape Fear Voices.

The Brunswick County Branch of the NAACP has also offered to fund a scholarship to be awarded to select writers. Details still to be determined.

We will recognize Cape Fear Voices writers in three main categories of writing:

1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. Memories/History
               2. Creative Writing
               3. Poetry

We will also be recognizing the top writers for The Teen Scene. Teen writers will be recognized for their consistent participation, quality of writing, and effort. Some scholarship monies will be a part of the recognition for the teen writers. 

If you are interested in being a sponsor for the evening, please contact us at [email protected] for more information. 

Nominations for your favorite Cape Fear Voices stories in the three categories should be sent to [email protected].
