The 75th anniversary Lion's Club student speakers contest went off as planned at Lion's Hall in Washington Park on Tuesday.  Students from SF, Capuchino and Half Moon Bay were among those competing to advance in the statewide contest.  It was reported that a prior contestant who did well at many levels won nearly $25,000 in prize money!  Tuesday's prize was a C-note and a chance to move up.  Here is the winner with local Lions (Lioness?) Kevin Kielty and Toni Nava.  Kudos on mastering a tough but exceptionally useful skill.

I missed the Lion's 5th grade spelling bee on Wednesday night, but I'm sure that was well done also.
