Marylouise won the public speaking award and was named the overall winner on February 17 and will now go on to compete at the zone final in Grenfell this week.
The Lions Youth of the Year is a prestigious award where participants are required to undergo an interview by a panel of judges, complete impromptu speeches as well as a prepared speech at the awards dinner.
Lions Club of Young president Stuart Freudenstein presented Marylouise in front of family, friends, Lions Club members and her fellow competitors in the tough but rewarding competition.
The Lions Club of Young congratulated the Hennessy Catholic College student on her achievement.
“We wish Marylouise all the best in the coming competition,” a Lions Club spokesperson said.
The zone finals for the four contestants will be held in Grenfell on Saturday February 24 starting from 9.30am at the Railway Hotel.
