Download the form if you prefer to pay by check or if you want to request financial aid. Enrollment is limited to the first 200 who register and pay their workshop fee. Workshop presenters in 2009 included members of the Poynter Institute as well as professionals from Tampa Bay area news organizations, including the St. Petersburg Times, Tampa Tribune and WTSP Channel 10. Workshop topics range from writing and reporting to ethics and media careers. Between workshops and during lunch, students may browse award-winning student newspapers from across the country and chat with student journalists from across the state. Participants do not need to be involved in journalism at their schools. But those who work on school publications are urged to bring copies to share. Teachers who plan to bring more than 10 students should contact Wendy Wallace, program director, to ensure that space is available.
