Boards of the Decade

We are excited to honor the following ten poetry boards, who have amassed the most total award “points” in the IBPC competitions over the last decade. Points were determined by adding 12 points for each winner, 9 points for each 2nd place, 8 points for each 3rd place, and 6 points for each HM, or Special Mention. The grand total for each board is the sum of all the monthly competitions, plus the poem of the year and the poem of the decade competitions.
