CHANGES TO SCHEDULE

Hello All!

This LETTER went home today notifying everyone about the changes to the November debate schedule. Our next debate is NOT on November 1st, but November 14th (Impromptu @ CFIS); the John Ware debate has been MOVED to November 28th, and will be held at CSS (YAY!).

As a result of these changes, there is a new INVITATION to the CSS (John Ware twin) debate on November 28th. This form is DUE no later than Monday October 29th.

Remember that each individual student is responsible for bringing ONE JUDGE to the tournament. 
No judge, no participation, no exceptions.

Thanks so much! Looking forward to an awesome season!
