Regular readers of the Lamorinda Weekly are familiar with Miramonte senior Selena Ross, the winner of the local Lions Speaker Contest. On March 27 the Multiple District Four California Lions Regional Level Speech Contest was held at the Contra Costa Water District Board Offices, and Ross won again in this third round of competition. The topic was "Enforcing Our Borders: State vs. Federal Rights." Ross now goes on to the District Level Round to be held on April 23 at 2:00 p.m. at the Boy Scout Hall, 101 Davis Street in San Leandro, California. Ross was sponsored by the Moraga Lions Club, and is in the running for $21,000 in scholarship money.
