Molly and Carter's Titanic Creative Writing Contest

And the winner is....

During the month of February, we hosted a very special contest on our Titanic Branson website in honor of Titanic Authors' Week, which debuts March 18-23, 2013. Children were asked around the globe to write in telling a story of a day in the life of their pet.

You see, back in 1912, on the great ship Titanic, there were several couples who traveled with their pets. Did you know there were 10 dogs onboard Titanic? Well, at our Titanic Museum Attraction in Branson, Mo., we have 2 dog mascots who greet children each week to honor the dogs that were traveling onboard Titanic. Their names are Molly and Carter. Check out their webpage for more information!

We received many amazing entries in our Creative Writing Contest. It was so difficult to pick winners. There are many talented young writers out there and we are honored to meet a few of them. Click here for list of the First, Second, and Third Place winners in our contest. You can read the stories of their pets. Find out what it is like to be Humphrey, the White Dwarf Hamster. I think you will enjoy reading a day in his life.

These 3 winners will now be able to participate in the Titanic Authors' Week this March 18-23, 2013 and will personally meet each Titanic Author. Now these winners have something in common with all of the amazing Titanic Authors....published stories.

I hope you can make it to this event. We are sure you will enjoy meeting these great writers and reading their stories. We hope you and your family will find this special new event educational and interactive.

I encourage you to share this event with your friends and family and please "like" us on facebook. We would love to hear about your experience at the Titanic Museum Attraction!

Signing off for now.
