Status: Tournament Completed

Dear Colleague:               The Northwest College Forensic staff and students extend to you a cordial invitation to attend the  42nd Annual Trapper Rendezvous Forensic Tournament for high schools to be held on the Northwest campus in Powell, Wyoming, January 4-5, 2013.  Last year we hosted over three-hundred competitors from fifteen schools, providing some excellent competition.               The 2013 Trapper Rendezvous will feature six preliminary rounds of Cross Examination and LD debate in varsity and junior divisions. We also provide the opportunity for competition in one open division of Public Forum Debate. Elimination rounds in all debate divisions will depend on entries but in the past all have broken to quarter-finals.               We offer one open division of individual events, featuring competition in six events divided into two patterns. We will have three preliminary and two elimination rounds, as entries warrant. The events are Extemporaneous Speaking, Dramatic Interpretation, Humorous Interpretation, Duet Interpretation, Poetry Interpretation, and Oratory. We also will hold three sessions of Student Congress.               Cross Examination debate competitors will NOT be able to enter individual events, public forum debate, or student congress (This allows us to run six rounds in CX).  Other debaters may enter other events, but do so at their own risk. We will not make adjustments and it is up to students to make sure they get to all of their rounds.               Please note that they Wyoming High School rules only allow the use of laptops in CX debate. LD and Public Forum debaters are not allowed to use laptops during rounds.               This year tournament entry will be facilitated through the website “forensicstournament.net."   Entries must be completed by 10:00pm Wednesday, January 2, 2013. Also, please be advised that you will need to make your motel reservations well in advance of the tournament.               We are looking forward to you and your squad joining us for our hospitality and for the challenging competition.  This invitation is accessible at:  <a href=\"http://www.northwestcollege.edu/forensics/\">http://www.northwestcollege.edu/forensics/</a>   Yours truly,                               Duane Fish                                                      Jessica Ayres Bob Becker                                                     President, NWC Persuaders Student Organization Jeannie Hunt               Fred Ebert Forensics Coaches
