Due to Covid-19 concerns, the presentation was small, and lasted only 30 minutes, with all attendees, parents, masked. <strong>Third Place winner, Karsen Thompson<\/strong> couldn&#8217;t be present but her father accepted on her behalf. The young creatives&#8217; writing submissions are presently being considered nationally and we await the results of the National Young Master Writers Program Competition.
