TERRY!!!)
Being a Toastmaster has so many rewards. If your not a
part of a Toastmaster club then dear friend , you are missing
out!!!!!!!!!!!
We meet each Wednesday at noon inside the wonderful Susan-
nah’s home style kitchen on Henderson street in Cleburne.
Susannah’s provides us with great food and service as well as
a place to learn and grow as leaders and speakers.
Guests are always welcome and potential members are al-
ways invited. Let your curiosity bring you into a new life
journey. We believe what you learn in our club will change
your life and the way you interact with the world.
Saturday Jan 19th a few Cleburne Toastmasters were asked
to judge a fantastic speech competition given by some out-
standing high school teens about alcoholism and its affects
on teenagers for THE LIONS CLUB. Shirley Mckee, Everett
Stokes, and Joe Garcia could not have been more pleased to
judge.
These teens were amazing! They gave intelligent, well pre-
pared speeches that pulled at the heart. They were great ex-
amples of how public speaking can be used to make a differ-
ence in the world.
The winner of the competition was Hirai Desai of Lewisville
high school. She left our jaws on the floor with her profes-
sionally given speech. She was genuine and powerful. Al-
though her competition was fierce, her grace and personality
made her speech stand out as the best.
Congratulations Hirai Desai.

Meals-on-Wheels Presents Free
Aging and Caregiving Symposium
Meals-on-Wheels of Johnson and Ellis Counties, together
with The Hale Law Firm and Huguley Memorial Medical
Center, will offer a free symposium for caregivers and old-
er adults on Friday, February 8, 2013 from 8:30 - Noon at
The Huguley Fitness Center Amphitheater, located at 11801
South Freeway in Burleson.
The Conference, free of charge and open to the public, is for
seniors and family members and friends that care for older
adults by providing physical, emotional support and/or finan-
cial assistance. Participants will receive practical informa-
tion on healthy aging and resources, legal issues, managing
healthcare, managing caregiver stress and more.
Professionals from local senior service providers and orga-
nizations will be available to answer questions and provide
information and meet with attendees.
“We are excited about offering this resource to our local com-
munity of seniors and caregivers,” said Lisa Deese, Commu-
nity Development Director. “It will be day of learning to
better care for yourself as your care for others”, she added.
Meals-on-Wheels began its Caregiver Education program,
alongside the other services it provides to the community,
over four years ago in response to the growing need for el-
derly services in the community. Nationwide, over 50 mil-
• lion people are caring for their loved ones themselves, versus
placing them in a nursing or care facility which is very ex-
pensive.
Meals-on-Wheels is a community benefit organization serv-
ing the homebound elderly and disabled residents of Johnson
and Ellis Counties. To register for the Conference or to re-
quest information about Meals-on-Wheels’ services, please
call 817.558.2840 or visit the website at www.servingth-
echildrenofyesterday.org.

Two Area High School Students
Will Win Trip to Nation’s Capital
Youth Tour contest gives students
a chance to learn about the flag
and the importance of democracy.
CLEBURNE - United Cooperative Services seeks high
school student applicants for the 2013 Washington Youth
Tour trip. No place in this country offers a better venue
to see democracy in action and to learn what the U.S. flag
stands for than Washington, D.C., and electric cooperatives
should pave the way for youths to have such an experi-
ence. Lyndon B. Johnson made that statement in 1957 in
Chicago as he addressed attendees at the annual meeting of
the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association. Since
that time, Texas electric cooperatives have adhered to that
philosophyjoining other co-ops from across the country in
sponsoring trips to the nation’s capital for young students
interested in witnessing government in action.
United Cooperative Services has played a pivotal role in
giving dozens of young people such an opportunity. Known
as the Government-In-Action Youth Tour Contest, United
will again sponsor a trip to Washington, D.C., in June, for
two fortunate high school students. The two students are
selected via a contest. The objectives of the Youth Tour are
three-fold:
1. To educate youth on all aspects of rural electrification
in order to promote a better understanding of the value of
rural electric cooperatives.
2. To provide an opportunity for youth to visit monu-
ments, government buildings and cooperative-related orga-
nizations in order to become familiar with the historical
and political environment of their nation’s capital.
3. To provide an opportunity for youth to meet elected
officials in order to better understand how their federal
government works.
“I strongly encourage all students to participate in the Youth
Tour competition,” said Devon Petty, a senior at Alvarado
High School and one of two winners last year. “This trip
provided a rare behind-the-scenes look at how things are
done at Capitol Hill, one example being the meeting with
our local congressmen. We stepped into the offices of Capi-
tol Hill and spoke one on one with our representative, an
opportunity I would not have had without Youth Tour!” he
added.
This contest is open to high school sophomores, juniors
and seniors who attend a high school full-time in United’s
service area. Each contestant must complete and submit an
application, which can be filled out online at www.united-
cs.com. The applicant is not required to be a member of
United Cooperative Services. Winners of any past Youth
Tour are not eligible to enter and immediate family mem-
bers of United employees or directors are not eligible to
enter. Applications must be submitted no later than Friday,
February 22, 2013.
“I learned so much while on the trip, visited so many his-
torical sites, and made lifelong friends and memories. This
contest was a true blessing for me, and my future,” said
Petty.
“Each year, we look forward to providing the high school
students in our communities this opportunity of a lifetime,”
said United CEO Ray Beavers. “It demonstrates our com-
mitment to these young people—the future leaders of our
state and our country—and gives them a front row seat to
witness democracy in action and a chance to observe some
of the nation’s most important monuments,” he said.
