Not many people have the gumption to voluntarily speak in front of a crowd, let alone when they are to be judged on their performance; however five Clinton County 4-H members successfully tried their hand at impressing the judges at the Public Speaking Contest held in the Learning Center at the Education and Resource Center in Mill Hall.
Contestants were judged on criteria including their
delivery, organization and general appearance as they spoke with poise and
shined with confidence. Madison Weaver took first place on her Senior Speech entitled,
“King of the Rabbits.” Destiny Stover took first place on her Senior
Presentation about the importance of properly preparing your rabbits to show.
Olivia Benna took first place in her Junior Presentation about checking your
horse’s vital signs, while Morgan Kerstetter and Kayla Kimble were a close
second and third.
