Welcome to the 2008-09 speech and debate season!
Returning/new student meetings
Wednesday and Thursday, Sept. 17-18 @ 3:30 p.m. (Coaches will be there right after school)
Capital High School Library
Returning students, please spread the word about these meetings and plan to attend at least one of them yourselves. We challenge all of you to bring at least one possible new member to a meeting with you!
New student parent orientation
7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 25 in the library conference room (enter to the left of the school’s main doors)
Parents, please come and meet your child’s coaches and find out what our program is all about.
A few more things:
- Check out the new tournament schedule (at right) and begin to look at your academic/work schedules and make arrangements as needed
- If you know who your coach is, be sure and check in.
- Topics are out! LDers, Policy and Public Forum debaters, you can start doing research at any time!
- If anyone was wondering, we have decided not to do Carnival Classic at Memorial Park next Sunday (Sept. 22), but it’s a great event to attend and support if you can.
- Noon meetings in the library will start up again Thursday, Sept. 25. Be there or be….in big trouble:)
Note to returning members:
All of my exclamation points are not meant to negate the fact that we have all just experienced a heartbreaking tragedy. I’ll just say it: It’s going to be hard to start the year without Angela. More than that, it sucks.
But we can still be glad to be coming together as a team again, and look forward to a wonderful year of competition and fun - and of grieving and healing and remembering Angela together.
We look forward to seeing you next week.
