Long time no see… We hope you enjoyed your summer break!

Time flies way too quickly. We’ve been counting down the days until we can all meet up and share some poetry again! Take a look at our first meeting flyer.

Meet us in The State College Room in Maucker Union this Wednesday from 5-6:30pm! In this meeting we will do some introductions, go over a little bit of the constitution, introduce cabinet roles, answer any questions you may have, and share some fun facts + writing if we have time!

Please fill out this Availability Finder Survey in order to determine a meeting time that works for everyone. This will also help us plan slams, open mics, and other events!

Get ready to share your poetry at our upcoming OPEN MIC!

We hope you didn’t think we’d come back empty handed? Join us next Thursday for Poetry Open Mic Night! We hope to make this a monthly-twice a month event with different themes to share all of your creative writing! Take a look at this flyer and share it with your friends!

This event will be in The Maucker Union Coffeehouse on Thursday, September 18th from 5:30-7pm! There will be hot coco, coffee, tea, and baked goods to snack on to give it an authentic Coffee-Shop-Open-Mic Feel.

Upcoming opportunity to travel and compete with some of the best poets in Iowa!

Our founder and current president, Vincent, has been given the opportunity to perform at this event and there will be a competitive open mic held after for everyone to participate in. We need people interested in attending so we can request funding to travel to Iowa City November 15th. If you are interested in driving and carpooling please let us know ASAP. We will be able to get you reimbursed for gas milage. This option would possibly be easier to fund and coordinate.

If you are interested in attending please have a look on the Mic Check Poetry Fest website!

Please also fill out this Google Form Confirming your interest ASAP! We will be applying for funding to cover the cost of registration so we need a head count the sooner the better.

Due to funding and registration, the deadline to be added to the trip is Friday October 10th!

Now we bid you farewell!

(We should also talk about Spooky Scary Slam 2025, but we’ll get to that later 😉 )
