President's Message
It's time once again for our High School Shakespeare Competition. We are holding it at the Margery Reed Theater on the DU campus this year.
I want to thank Dr. Eleanor McNees for securing that for us.
Sunday February 28th from 2:00pm - 4:00 pm.
14 high school students from the metro Denver Area will recite monologues and sonnets. The winner will have an all expense paid trip to New York in April to recite on the stage of the Lincoln Center.
Please click on the "Calendar of Events" for information about the brunch that precedes the competition as well as more information about the competition.
Our two new Board members, Grey Gorman,and Nickolas Dawkins are working with Joyce Mullan to create our first Writing Competition and a possible Debate Program. We will be launching the contest this Spring.
Our two BUSS winners, (pictured lower left) gave excellent accounts of their summer studies in England, at the BUSS recognition dinner on September 11th.
We sent our Shakespeare Competition winner Jake Brasch, to the National competition in April. He finished in the top 15, competing with students from all over the country.
I am happy to announce that Denver will host the 2010 National Conference. The date is September 23-26,2010.It will be held at the Brown Palace.
I am also pleased to announce that Pat Schroeder a former Congresswoman from Colorado has been elected as National Chairman. She will bring new enthusiasm to our organization.
Please watch our web site for details as they become available and circle the conference dates now so that you can come to Denver for a glorious fall weekend with your ESU friends from all over the country and meet our new National Chairman.
