The contest is a memorial to the late R. Joel Senter Sr., a wonderful Sherlockian who devoted his life in teaching students and adults alike about the life of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson.

The essay contest brings together two worlds that meant so much to R. Joel Senter Sr. – education and the Great Detective.
