Celebrating Young Writers and Our Community

The St. Helens Noon Kiwanis Club is proud to support opportunities that encourage children and young people to learn, create, and succeed.

The St. Helens Kiwanis Club has been serving the community since 1926 and describes its mission as helping the community “one child at a time.” Its local projects include literacy programs, providing books to young children, supporting the Dolly Parton Imagination Library, providing thesauruses to third graders, scholarships, Holiday Hope, Toy and Joy, The St. Helens Community Parade, the MEGGA Easter Egg Hunt, Columbia County Fair parking, and support for local organizations and children's programs.

The club's commitment to education and literacy makes this young writers competition a natural extension of its work. Encouraging children to put their ideas on paper helps build confidence, creativity, communication skills, and a lifelong appreciation for reading and writing.

And, perhaps most importantly, this competition gives young people an opportunity to have their voices heard.

Thank You to All Participants.

To every young writer who entered: Thank you!

Your willingness to share your imagination and creativity with us is something to be proud of. Whether you received an award this time or not, putting your thoughts and ideas into a piece of writing is an accomplishment in itself.

We look forward to our next competition. For more information about joining the St Helens Kiwanis Club please visit us. We look forward to meeting you.
