Congratulations to the 4-H Communication Event Participants in Knox County

4-H members participated in the Knox County 4-H Communication Event held on Monday, April 21st in Center, Nebraska.  Participants were able to present a speech, record a PSA and deliver a presentation.

Whether speaking in person or virtually, communicating our thoughts to others is a valuable skill. Public speaking contests help youth develop skills for communicating with audiences, learn how to organize and prepare a speech, develop speech delivery skills, learn how to present themselves to others, and develop self-confidence.
