No practice on Friday, 9/30 at BHS. If you can't make another practice this week, that's fine.
Please be sure to turn in your ASB/Activity clearance form and your debate expectations. Thanks!

Changes to Tournament Schedule
Hello Debaters and Parents,
Please note there has been a few changes to the original tournament schedule I sent home with your student last week. Kamiak HS (in Mukilteo) is offering a one-day practice tournament for first year debaters on 10/15. This is a great opportunity to see what a tournament is like. Second year and up debaters are welcome to judge. Students need to confirm with me by Friday, October 7th if they are attending. On the 15th we will depart from the schools at 6:30am and return around 9pm.
The other change is for the weekend of Oct 28th/29th. The Glacier Peak tournament has been cancelled, so we will instead attend Gig Harbor HS's tournament. We will stay overnight in Gig Harbor.
I will need parent drivers for both tournaments so please let me know as soon as possible if you can help. All volunteers need to be fingerprinted beforehand.
Thank you for your time, and I'll have more information on the blog as I learn it.
