Greetings All,

I hope you all have had an amazing week!!  I am so glad to have you all here as we say good-bye to March and welcome April.  Be on the lookout for those April fools jokes tomorrow!

If everyone will take your barstool and quiet down we will get this meeting started.

MARCH CONTEST WINNER:

The March 2017 contest has come to a close and I have to say even though the submissions were down, the quality of the poems was just exceptional, which in turn made it very difficult to judge. Drum Roll Please!

Our March 2017 Contest Winner Is:

MSQuigg

Both of his poems were just phenomenal! Congratulations MSQuigg!!!

MSQuigg is now eligeble to participate in the 2017 Pubber of the Year contest and we hope to have an interview with him for our Pubber Interview collection soon.

Poem-A-Day:

We have had a new member take up the poem-a-day challenge:

kookie_owns_me

I encourage you to stop by her profile and support her, along with all the other members who have taken this challenge.  Writing a poem a day is not always an easy task, with life getting in the way, so some encouragement is always welcome.

As you know the Pub's Poem-A-Day collection is open for submissions from all members, so if you have a poem you would like to share feel free to send it in.
