Osprey Village on Amelia Island Announces 2026 Silver Pen Writing Competition Winners

At Osprey Village, we believe in fostering vital connections across generations and supporting the academic dreams of local Amelia Island students. We are thrilled to officially announce the winners of the 2026 Silver Pen Writing Competition, a writing competition dedicated to community engagement in Northeast Florida.

Celebrating Academic Excellence in Nassau County

On April 24th, 2026, Osprey Village hosted an awards dinner to honor our two winners, along with their friends and families. Each student was presented with award money to assist with their upcoming college tuition and educational expenses as they transition to higher education.

The Silver Pen Writing Competition was established in 2012 by our parent company, The Maxwell Group. The program bridges the communication gap between Nassau County high school seniors and our senior living community Members. This year, participants submitted 1,000-word essays on a topic carefully selected by a judging panel of Osprey Village Members.

A Decade of Giving Back to the First Coast

For over ten years, the Silver Pen program has remained committed to investing in the next generation of local leaders. To date, The Maxwell Group has awarded over $500,000 in awards to high school seniors across our communities. We are proud to continue this tradition of community support and academic excellence right here in Amelia Island, FL.
