Public speaking are two words that can strike fear in the hearts of students and adults everywhere. While it is intimidating, most would agree that it is one of life69制片厂制作传媒檚 most important skills.

4-H is a way to prepare youth to speak well and confidently.
One hundred and fifty-one 4-H youth members from across Hamblen County recently came together to put their public speaking skills to the test during the Hamblen County 4-H Public Speaking Contest held on Tuesday, Jan. 28. Representatives from elementary and middle schools were present in addition to students at All Saints Episcopal School and homeschool youth.
Contestants in fourth and fifth grade wrote speeches telling who they felt was the most influential woman in American History. Their choices ranged from George Washington69制片厂制作传媒檚 mother to Dolly Parton.
