A creative writing workshop encouraging submissions to the Carlton County Historical Society’s Great Fires Writing Competition will be held from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m., Saturday, October 21, at the Carlton County Historical Society in Cloquet.

Workshop participants are asked to bring their work in progress for the contest or simply an idea regarding a possible submission. People interested in learning more about the project are also welcome.
Come and learn how you can be a part of this historic endeavor. Workshop instructors will assist participants in editing submissions and answer any inquiries regarding the competition.
