IN FLANDERS FIELD

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row
That mark our places; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders Field.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold in high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders Fields

by Lt. Col. John McCrae, MD, 1872-1918

  STRONGSVILLE V F W POST 3345      
VETERANS OF FOREIGN WARS OF THE UNITED STATES
CHARTERED ON JUNE 23, 1935
VOICE OF DEMOCRACY


Theme for 2011-2012: "Is there pride in serving in our Military?"



Target Entrants

Students in grades 9-12

ENTRY DEADLINE

NOVEMBER 1ST EACH YEAR



Event Background



The Voice of Democracy, endorsed by the National Association of Secondary School Principals' contest criteria, is an audio essay contest for high school students. The annual contest, which is designed to foster patriotism, allows students the opportunity to voice their opinion in a three-to-five minute essay based on an annual theme.



Created in 1947, the scholarship program annually provides more than $3 million in scholarships. Each Department's first-place winner receives an all-expense-paid trip to Washington, D.C., plus the opportunity to compete for national scholarships. The first-place national winner receives a $30,000 scholarship.



All national scholarships are paid directly to the American university, college or vocational/technical school as selected by the recipient. All scholarship funding is held at National Headquarters in escrow for 10 years from high school graduation. The funds, which are disbursed as needed, may be used for tuition, books, laboratory fees or other items relating specifically to the student's formal education. Clothing, room and board and pocket money are not considered authorized expenditures.
