The Orchard Mesa Lions Club will sponsor a youth speech contest.

The contest is open to any student of high school age and will include local-, district- and state-level competitions. Winners will receive cash prizes. 

Entrants must submit by March 14 a manuscript or annotated outline of their speeches based on the topic “Your passion becomes your legacy when you serve others … Why is community service important?”

The local contest is scheduled for the Orchard Mesa Lions Club meeting on March 21.

For more information about the contest, send an email to Kathy at Turkeytrots2@gmail.com.
