PBS KIDS GO! Writers Contest 2010

Contest Results

PBS national winners have been selected! Unfortunately, none of our local winners placed in the national contest. We’ll try again next year!

KLRU celebrated all our local winners on Saturday, May 15, 2010, at the Carver Public Library. Our winners read their stories to their family and friends, received prizes along with a certificate and snacked on refreshments. Congratulations winners!
