dad for Father's Day
Dad
By Kristen Bacon
My dad's cool, funny and fun.
He helps me build things. He
helps me saddle my horse for a
ride. He always is interested in
what I'm doing. He has funny
stories. He always helps me reach
my goals. He takes us fishing. He
also takes us on trail rides.
Cuba Middle School's fifth
graders were asked to compete in
this year's Free Press In Education
Essay Contest. They each were
given the option of choosing either
their mother or father to write
about.
The Free Press selected Kristen
Bacon's essay (at left) as this year's
Father's Day winner. Kristen and
her dad, Ronald, received a $25 gift
certificate from Roberts-Judsons, a
$25 gift certificate from Missouri
Hick and a one year subscription to
the Cuba Free Press.
Other essays can be found on this
page.

Best dad
By Joann Coffman
My dad is the best because he
takes care of me in time of
need, no matter what he is
doing. When I am sick he is
right there beside me every
step of the way. He teaches me
things like how to cook some
things. I love him more than
anything in the world.
