Partiot’s Pen 2020-2021
Once again, The Tellico Village VFW Post is sponsoring the Patriot’s Pen Patriotic Essay competition in Lenoir City Middle School.
THEME: “What is Patriotism to Me?”
Each year more than 138,000 students in grades 6-8 enter the VFW’s Patriot’s Pen youth essay contest for a chance to win their share of more than $900,000 in state and national awards. Each first place state winner receives a minimum of $500 at the national level, and the national first place winner wins $5,000 and an all-expense-paid trip to Washington, D.C.
The essay contest encourages young minds to examine America’s history, along with their own experiences in modern American society, by drafting a 300 to 400 word essay, expressing their views based on a patriotic theme chosen by the VFW Commander-in-Chief.
Want to apply? Read the rules and eligibility requirements, and download the 2020-21 entry form application, as all student entries must be submitted to our VFW Post by midnight, Oct. 31.
