NH - Manchester Slam Fundraiser
Current Poetic Events Since we're already in the fundraising neighborhood, let's knock on another door.

Actually, pounding on the door might be more appropriate, because the fundraiser in question is for New Hampshire's first-ever entry in the National Poetry Slam.

These five competitive performance poets will travel to Austin, Texas from Aug. 7-11, and the Queen City is home to four of the five. The team includes Summer Whitmore, Cara Losier, Mat Tremblay and alternate Mark Palos, all of Manchester, while Eric Urban from Grafton, Mass., rounds out the roster for coach/adviser Hope Jordan.

"To give you a sense of what we've gone through," Hope said, "we had to go through a yearlong certification process and compete in a regional competition that landed our New Hampshire team in Jamaica Plain at midnight, squaring off against a powerhouse team from New York City."

Current sponsors include John S. Jordan Design, Merchants Auto and Tee-Shirt Bodega, and to further defray the cost of the trip to Austin, the Bridge Cafe will host an Open Mike Night on Friday featuring the title-winning slammers at 7 p.m. Admission is $5. For information, call 303-0538 or contact Hope via e-mail at hopejordan @ comcast.net.
