Karla O’Brien – General Club Reporter

Public Speaking for the Irricana Beef and Multi Club took place on January 25, 2025. It was a huge success! There were speeches and presentations that entertained, educated and amused those who were there to listen and judge. The club members all came prepared and ready to give their best effort to please the judges that had so kindly volunteered their time to participate. The emcees worked extra hard to ensure all the presentations, speeches and Impromptus went smoothly and in a timely fashion. This year we finished on time, some groups even finished a little early. The flow of the schedule was appreciated by most of the club members, parents, judges and visitors, however it was not appreciated as much as the delicious lunch everyone was provided! The Chili was amazing and “make your own sandwich station” was a hit. Thank you to everyone who helped make this years Public Speaking Event a huge success!
