Gig Harbor Tournament Info

Hello Debaters and Supporters of Debate,

After each debate tournament I will give an update on how the team performed. Yesterday we had the Kamiak HS novice tournament, just for first year debaters. Delaney and Paul, from Sehome HS, took second place at the tournament in policy debate. Everyone did a great job, including the Lincoln Douglas debaters who had a last minute change to the topic.

Thank you to fellow driver, Sophia Morales. She pitched in last minute to drive students to Mukilteo, for which we are grateful. Thank you also to returning debaters who came along to judge: Rose Osborne, Emiliana Morales, Will McShane, and Gordon Friedman.

Now onto information for Gig Harbor. Please speak with your student ASAP about attending this tournament on the 29th/30th. Students need to confirm with me by Friday, Oct 22nd if they intend to participate. They will need to have all paperwork/fees paid, pass grade checks, and attend practice the week of the tournament. We will depart at 12:30 on 10/29, and return late on 10/30. We will be staying overnight at the Westwynd Motel: 6703 144th St. NW, Gig Harbor. Students should bring sleeping bags if possible, food for Friday afternoon/evening, and all day Saturday. We may have time to go off campus for meals, so students may bring money. Parents signed up to drive are: Valerie Richardson and Sally McColloch. Jeff Bennett is signed up to judge. Please let me know if there are any changes.

Thank you for reading and I hope see everyone this week!
