LACONIA — Students, families, and the community at large interested in exploring freedom and patriotism in America through writing are invited to Spring Family Write Night at the Middle School from 6 — 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, May 11.

In honor of Memorial Day, the patriotic theme will be "Celebrating America: Honoring Our Freedom." Attendees will enjoy a short video clip, examine poetry through song lyrics (such as "The Star Spangled Banner" and "America the Beautiful") and share family photographs.

A light dinner will provide a quick break before groups begin acrostic poetry writing. The evening will conclude with the sharing of poems.

So that all patriotic writers can be accommodated, those interested in participating should e-mail their name, number of attendees, and contact information to sgazda@laconia.k12.nh.us or call the Middle School at 524-4632. Space is limited.
