The winners were presented to the Curwood Festival board at their monthly meeting in April. Stories were to be written in the style of noted local author James Oliver Curwood who wrote action/adventure stories and was open to all public, parochial, and home schooled students in grades 4th through 12th in Shiawassee County. The writing contest is to promote an interest in school age children in writing and to help keep the memory of James Oliver Curwood alive.
