Click on the link below to view the speech Maren McNees made at the Elks National Convention in July in Phoenix, Arizona.  She spoke in a convention center about a block in size in front of between 4,500 and 5,000 people. Maren is the 15 year old daughter of Mark and Bobbi Jo McNees and a student at Atlantic High School.  She pledged as her new years resolution to do a good deed for someone every day.  Her speech is a motivational one with that theme.
