The Union County Democratic Committee (UCDC) announces the Kline-Spielman-Landis essay contest for any high-school junior or senior living in Union County, including those who attend private schools or who receive home schooling. Applicants answer this question:
Beyond exercising their right to vote, what motivates students to become involved as active participants in the democratic process by working for various civic causes?
One prize of $300 will be awarded. Deadline for submissions is Friday, March 25, 2011. The winner will be announced and the prize will be awarded at the UCDC’s annual spring dinner on April 16, 2011. For contest rules, please visit the UCDC website at www.uniondemocrats.org or write to the committee at ucdcessay@gmail.com or at Essay Contest, UCDC, P.O. Box 3, Lewisburg, PA 17837.
The award is named for Rose Kline, Bea Spielman and Miriam Landis. Kline served as New Berlin’s representative on the UCDC for over 50 years and held several offices, most recently serving as vice chair.
Spielman, a former secretary of the UCDC, held a seat on the committee for 40 years, at different times representing East Buffalo Township, Lewisburg Borough, and most recently, Kelly Township. Landis, of Union Township, was chairwoman of the UCDC for 12 years in the 1970’s and 80’s. Prior to coming to Union County, she had been vice chair of the Snyder County Democratic Committee.
