Piper Lidkea answered a question from the judging panel after giving her second-place winning speech at the Rainy River District School Board’s speech contest at Robert Moore School yesterday. Lidkea’s speech detailed her experience with scoliosis, with third-place winner Jenna Bailey presenting a speech about women and equality. The first-place winner was Sturgeon Creek Alternative Program student Presley McQuaker, who wowed judges and the audience with a speech about the Wild Horse Inmate Program at Arizona State Prison, where prisoners work to tame wild horses that are rounded as part of population control efforts.
