Welcome back from break!
Debaters!
Since I will not be at club this Thursday, I am sending you the resolution you will be debating. Clayton will be facilitating, so listen to his wise debate expertise.
Always remember that when we debated each other at Nats - I won. :D
Please partner up, and debate the following resolution:
This house should vote for the democratic nominee in the November 2016 presidential election, if Donald Trump is the republican nominee.
You allowed and encouraged to do as much background research as is possible before debate, and before the round. Next week we will be focusing on TP/LD.
If you have any questions - just email me!

Vector this week -- Jan 7
Happy New Year! I hope you had a delightful break!
It's time to dust off the speeches and debate cases and get the juices flowing again! We have 1 week until the next LD tournament, 3 weeks before the next LD/ Parli tournament, and 4 weeks before the Annandale Speech tournament. I want you all to set your sites on doing your best and making it your goal to snag one of those green check-marks! Going to Nationals is a great goal and is so rewarding, not to mention fun!
SPEECH:
Bring your platforms and interps for coaching. We have 4 weeks to get your speeches polished. We will also work on some impromptu skills drills.
DEBATE:
We will be running a Parli round in which all debaters will participate in prep for the Parli tournament.
PARENTS:
We will need you for coaching both Speech and Debate!
If you will NOT be there on Thursday, please email me to let me know so we can adjust our planning! pkmillhouse@gmail.com
See you Thursday!
