Spring Meet Highlights

ISFPC gathered at Fox Island County Park, Fort Wayne for our Spring Meet on May 14. NI Poets (Northeast Indiana Poets Of Every Type) proved gracious hosts. They provided everything from homemade snacks to music to diamond stickers to celebrate ISPFC's diamond anniversary. That's right, ISFPC is 75 years old! So our subtitle of the day was "Gemstones of Poetry and History."

​Spring Meet was also an officially endorsed Indiana Bicentennial Legacy Project. See ISFPC's other bicentennial events here.

Enjoy the Slideshow Highlights of Spring Meet!

Manningham Chair
​Linda Eaton

Linda is a retired educator who will be a great resource for our student-geared Manningham Contest. She is also a budding voiceover artist and gardener.

We welcome them and thank the retiring officers for their service.

​Please note the vice presidents no longer have to serve as contest chairs, though they may if needed. The offices were separated after consulting Nationals and our guiding source on bylaws, Practical Parliamentary Procedure. The bylaw committee is currently revising the bylaws. If you wish to participate, consult our President, Sandra Nantais. Look for the revised version on this website a month before Fall Rendezvous.

Thank you, NI Poets, officers, guest speakers, and members, for a lovely Spring Meet! See you October 14-16 at Spring Mill State Park for 2016 Fall Rendezvous!

I had a great time at my first ISFPC gathering and look forward to many more. I am pleased to be the new 2nd VP and promise I will do everything I can to promote poetry in the Hoosier State. I have met a lot of talented poets here since I moved back after almost 20 years in the Far East. One of my new endeavors is working for the online arts magazine Indiana Voice Journal as Poetry Editor. It's a quality publication and I welcome poetry submissions by email at: ivjpoetry@gmail.com.
