PAWS BOOK CONTEST
Paws Humane Society of Lumpkin County hopes you will join us in an exciting contest. This fundraiser is provided by the generosity of local author, Deborah Smith and her husband. It consists of publication of a book which will be available for sale locally as well as on Amazon.com. All proceeds will be used to support various projects of benefit to domestic dogs and cats in Lumpkin County.
The book will consist of essays, poetry, drawings, photographs, and recipes from residents of Lumpkin County and surrounding areas. This contest is open to all ages ranging from elementary school students to our seniors. Everyone is invited to participate in this contest.
All submissions will be reviewed by our panel of PAWS editors. Selected entries will be edited as needed and published in our book, along with the author’s name. Optionally at the author’s discretion, age, school and dedication will also be published.
We hope you will enjoy participating in this contest and look forward to seeing the wonderful work you choose to submit. Good Luck!
