Last night, January 15th, 2015 we held our CIPS Qualifier to choose the poet who will represent Victoria in Vancouver in April.
We had 8 poets competing for the spot and they were the 8 poets who came 1st and 2nd in the first 4 Slams of our 2014-2015 season.
Lacey Lou's was at capacity last night. We were sold out before 8 o'clock, and Lacey Lou's, which is always warmed from the oven was then more-warmed by the crowds.
Thank you all for coming out and supporting the poets and the poetry community on a rainy and windy evening.
From first to last place, these are the results-
Aaron Simm
Maita Cienska
SJ Valiquette
Elysia Glover
Audrey Lane Cockett
Scott Thompson
Annie Lepage
Tom Fowler
The next Slam is a regular Slam, open to all, and will be held at Lacey Lou's the 3rd Thursday in February, which is the 19th.
Hope to see you all there!
