flyer for the third contest
It began in 1990 and ran for at least three years.
The results from the third contest were to have been published in Herne's Stepchildren #11. The moderator was Lonnie Korenstein and that year's topic was "What I did on my summer vacation in Sherwood."

or send in your worst;
