SUMMARY:Women's Suffrage Centennial in Wilton:  Wilton Woman's Club Short Story Contest for Girls
DESCRIPTION:2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment guaranteeing and protecting the right to vote for (some) women. The State of Connecticut has launched the CT Women’s Suffrage Commission and is encouraging municipalities and non profits to work together to celebrate this anniversary.  A number of Wilton organizations have planned events and activities to celebrate this important milestone. \n\nThe Wilton Woman’s Club is holding a short story contest on the theme of the 100th Anniversary of Women’s Suffrage. Girls who are Wilton residents in grades 9-12 are encouraged to submit a fictional short story related to American women gaining the right to vote. Deadline is April 27\, 2020.\n\n\nThe topic can be anything. Some hypothetical examples:\n\n\n\nA story of an 18 year old woman in 1920\nA sci-fi story about a parallel universe where women never got the right to vote\nA mystery about a conspiracy to prevent passage of the amendment\n\nRequirements:\n\n\nThe story must be 2\,500 words or less\, typewritten\, in English. It must be related to American women’s right to vote. The story must be original\, and written by the submitter\, who must be a female resident of Wilton\, CT\, currently in grades 9-12.\n\n\nThe deadline is 11:59 p.m.\, April 27\, 2020.\n\n \n\n\nEmail a PDF or Word document by the deadline.
