Rafael Robles Wins Pomona Host Lions Speakers Contest

Rafael Robles, a freshman at Pomona Unified School District’s Diamond Ranch High School, has won the Students Speakers Contest, sponsored by the Pomona Host Lions.  Other finalists were Janet Vargas of Village Academy High School and Mireya Munguia of Garey High School.  Both the winner and the finalists won cash prizes.

The three contestants spoke on the topic “How Do We Create and Keep Jobs in America.”

Pomona Host Lion Morgan Brown, who organized the contest, commented that this year’s Lions topic, which is being used throughout California, was particularly timely and interesting.  Club President Barbara Smith noted, “The winning speech was well organized with good ideas, and Rafael had an animated delivery.”
