Congratulations to Kyle Allen, Carson High Junior, for winning the Carson City Host Lions Club 2025 Student Speaker Contest.

Kyle impressed the judges on January 20th, 2025, with his insightful speech on “How does technology influence the ability for individuals to engage in interpersonal communication?” He earned a $75 stipend and will advance to the Lions District 46 zone-level contest on February 12th, 2025 in Dayton, NV.

Special shoutout to Kaden Sa and Nasia Perkins, also from Carson High, who participated in the 2025 Student Speaker Contest and earned $25 stipends for their great speeches, and to Jill Shufelt, coach of the Carson High Speech and Debate Team.

Lion Ken Haskins, chairman of the event, said: “These students made insightful and well-researched speeches. We’re very proud of them.”
