Membership
In order to participate in SISPA’s contests or attend the Winter Conference, a school must become a member.
Membership has been reduced to $50 per school this year due to concerns that the Winter Conference may be held virtually due to COVID restrictions. Membership dues cover all publications within that school. Membership should be submitted by November 1.
Membership entitles member schools to compete in all mail-in and on-site contests that are held during the year. Schools will also receive a publication critique when entering Golden Dozen or Blue Banner contests.
Simply print out the membership form, complete it, enclose it and a check for $50 (payable to SIUC/SISPA), and mail to:
Cathy Wall
Harrisburg High School
333 W. College St.
Harrisburg, IL 62946
An email will be sent to notify you when your school’s membership fee is received.
