The Society’s mission is to preserve humankind’s artistic traditions; to reestablish poetry as one of the most widely appreciated forms of literature, communication, and entertainment; to increase appreciation of centuries of rhyming or metered poetry; to support poets who apply classical techniques in modern poetry through publication and performance opportunities and awards; and to aid in language arts education that imbues high moral fiber and good character.
A couple of favorites:
And last year they had a rhyming riddle contest, which sounds like fun. Looks like they have some other kinds of contests as well.
Here's their poetic forms page full of "how to write ..." links, and they have a riddle page as well.
May God give them strength and success.

Their statement on post modernism is a treat. A flaying of the modernist sacred cow.
