Hello all,
Here is the remaining debate tournaments, in case you need to write down these dates. Please note that the WIAA had the date and location incorrect for the District 1 Debate Qualifier. Instead of Feb. 22nd, it is on March 1st. It is a Tuesday, and will be in Sedro Woolley instead of Edmonds.
If any parents can drive for the following, please let me know. I know Ms. Korner has signed up to help for Mt. Vernon (thank you!). The rest are up for grabs.
January 14-15th Federal Way HS (Federal Way, WA)
January 21st - 22nd Mt Vernon High School (Mt Vernon, WA)
February 4th - 5th Kamiak HS Invitational (Kamiak, WA)
March 1st- District 1 Debate Qualifiers (Sedro-Woolley, WA)
March 3rd- 5th Puget Sound National Forensic League Qualifiers (Kamiak, WA)
March 18th - 19th State Debate Tournament University of Puget Sound (Tacoma, WA)
For Federal Way, we are staying at the Comfort Inn in Federal Way. For Kamiak HS, we are staying at the Hotel Marriott in Mukilteo. Hope that helps.

Debate resumes + news
Hello everyone,
I hope you all enjoyed your break but didn't forget about debate! Please note we have practice tomorrow, 1/4 at our usual Sehome spot at 3:15pm. For Wednesday, we will meet again in the skybridge of WWU's library at 7pm. If you plan on attending Federal Way on 1/14-15, you cannot skip practices.
Your debate fees are due for Jan. Please bring $35 to your ASB office.
I still need students to sign up for Federal Way. I only heard from Emiliana Morales and Rose Osborne. I need in writing or a phone call that you will be attending. This way, I know you spoke to your parent/guardian. I need an answer by 1/4 so I can make hotel reservations. The invitation is posted on the blog.
Thank you and please reserve your spot ASAP for Fed Way!

Federal Way update
Hello Everyone,
In case you're wondering, we have no debate practice 12/21, 12/22, 12/28, and 12/29. This is due to the holiday break. If you missed up last Wednesday, we apologize. The main doors were locked, but the side doors were unlocked. Thank you to those of you who made it.
Since we are missing four practices during the holidays, please be sure to work on debate assignments. This means for LD'ers, writing your cases on the new topic. CXers, please review and practice the new Afghanistan Private Military Contractor aff.
We will only have four practices before the Federal Way tournament on Jan. 14th/15th. It is extremely important that you attend practice before Federal Way in order to be considered for the tournament. I must hear from you by Tuesday, Jan. 4th if you plan to attend. Below is the tournament schedule and invitation if you have questions. We will leave at noon on
12/14 from the high schools. I will have more details on the hotel and van roster once the school resumes.
Please also use this time to send your family and friends the URL for your Fundbunch page. Only a few of you have collected donations so far- please keep it up in order to keep your dues low.
Thank you everyone, happy holidays, and I will see you on 1/4.

December Reminders + News
Hello everyone,
This is just a reminder that tomorrow we will have debate practice, at Sehome HS at 3:15pm. If you cannot make it to the Tuesday practice, we will see you Wednesday at 7pm at WWU's library.
Also- please turn in your $35 December fee to your ASB office. If you haven't paid November or October's, I will be putting a fine on your account. Your dues help us travel to tournaments!
Lastly, please put on your calendars the Federal Way tournament on Jan. 14th and 15th. Since we didn't attend Auburn, we will instead go to Federal Way. The following weekend is Mt. Vernon, on the 21st and 22nd. I have enough Mt. Vernon drivers, but I will need two more volunteers to drive students to Federal Way. We will leave around noon on the 14th and return late on the 15th. Thank you!
P.S.- I will need to know by Jan 4th if you intend to go to the Federal Way tournament.

Above is the link to our Google Group. I've posted evidence that the cx'ers cut last week. The new T file is also available, and hopefully more clear. You may have to join the group to access the Group, which requires a Google account.
If you are cutting cards over the break, please upload them to the group so we can all share.
Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving.
