Girl Power Contest: Residents Can Submit Their Work By March 31

SILVER SPRING, MD — In honor of Women's History Month, the Montgomery County Commission for Women is inviting residents to participate in its annual Girl Power Contest.

County residents ages five and up can submit a short story, poem, drawing, or another creative submission that addresses the following question: History has been made with the United States electing its first-ever female Vice President. If you had the opportunity, what advice would you give her? And what three important issues should she consider addressing while in office?

Written entries should be no more than 500 words. Entries will be judged on creativity and content.

The commission is accepting submissions through March 31. And the winners will be announced by April 30.

All contest winners will be featured on the Commission for Women's social media and receive a swag bag.
