Speakers’ Bureau
The
WRWA Speakers' Bureau provides a pool of speakers for clubs, civic

about writing in some way. But some have backgrounds giving them
experience or particular expertise that may be of interest to a
broad audience. More ...
Judges’ Pool
The WRWA Judges’ Pool provides judges for writing contests
sponsored by WRWA or by clubs, civic organizations, and other groups
throughout Wisconsin. Our goal is to assist WRWA Contest Managers by
keeping a list of qualified judges they can call on when needed and
to help writing clubs and other groups who sponsor writing contests.

Charter Club Partnership Program

Any local writing club, critique group, or gathering of five
or more people interested in the writing craft can enroll as
a Charter Club in the WRWA and receive specified benefits,
at this point discounts for WRWA membership and conferences.
