Welcome to the Cole Summer Writers Institute!
Cole 2010: July 12-16, 2010
9:00am-11:30am
The Cole Summer Writers Institute is a one week writing workshop for students at the Voorheesville Middle School and the Clayton A. Bouton High School. Started in 2004, the Institute gives middle school and high school age writers an opportunity to hone their writing skills in a fun, relaxed environment.
Utilizing Clayton A. Bouton High School as a classroom, with the scenic Helderberg Mountains as a backdrop, students meet, discuss, write, and explore their own creativity. They are exposed to a variety of writing exercises, have access to technology, and get to experience the teaching of successful professional writers who serve as guest leaders and mentors. At the end of the week, students turn in completed works, which are then published in the special Summer Edition of The Blackbird Review, Voorheesville Central School's own literary magazine!
