Her speech, a 3-5 minute tape on the topic “Does America still have Heroes?”
concentrated on the sacrifice that has been made and is still being made
by our men in the military, thus definitely qualifying them to be heroes
today in the true sense of the word.Samantha Keating from Prairie was selected
for second place by the judges, and junior Rachel Wemhoff of Summit was
given third by the panel of judges. Local winners are invited by
the VFW group to attend an awards banquet in Keuterville March 6th, and
as the local post winner, Tara will attend the District 2 Awards Banquet
to be held at noon in Lewiston, December 12.
