News and Updates
2020 Conference Cancelled
Dear Families,
We would like you to know that we have been monitoring COVID-19 situation closely and are taking all of the CDC announcements very seriously. We have been in contact with NMU and our author, Louise Borden. As a committee, we have decided to cancel this year's event for everyone's health and well-being. This decision was not one that was made lightly nor is it easy for any of us to make. We thank you for your understanding and continuous support.
The books you ordered from Snow Bound will still be administered. We will send more information about this soon.
The $6 lunch/registration fees will be returned to each building. If you have any questions regarding your fee, please contact your child's school.
Thanks to YooperShirts and their online ordering process, we are excited to announce that our t-shirt fundraiser will go on as planned with a few alterations!
We plan to highlight the major milestone of 45 years of Young Authors while still honoring the students who worked so hard on their artwork. We hope to also offer hoodies and crew-necks.
Please be patient as we determine what this will look like with YooperShirts. We will share a link and more information as soon as it is available.
Thank you for your support so far this year. Please reach out if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
The Young Author Steering Committee
