“Grant has a tradition to keep
up since Bob Blackford won the
contest last year,” stated senior
Tim Kehoe about why he en
tered the Soil and Water Con
servation speech contest.
Tim first entered the contest
by competing against a fellow
classmate to become our repre
sentative. Judging this contest
was Gust Kanas,. vice-principal
of curriculum.
After winning the contest at
school he entered the district
contest where he placed first.
The area contest was next. He
also won first and had the right
to enter the semi-finals.
In the state semi-finals there
were five separate contests. Each
first place winner of these con
tests would continue on to the
state finals. Tim came in second
in the semi-finals.
The topic for the contest was
water conservation. Topics are
changed each year.

“This program was started in
September. We believe in what
we’re doing for the students,”
stated Mr. Kalman.
If a student wants to apply for
this, he fills out an application
form. Then he meets with his
counselor, vice-principals and
his parents to discuss the possi
bility of his working for part
credit.
There are about 56 students
involved in this program with
approximately 30 applications
waiting to be processed.
‘‘School can’t be all things to
all people, and work experience
for a few can be very realistic,”
added Mr. Kalman.
