<p>Dear Colleague:</p>
<p> Lower Columbia College cordially invites you and your students to attend the 41st Annual Smelt Classic Invitational forensics tournament held on our campus Friday and Saturday, November 1 & 2, 2013. We are proud to continue the tradition of offering a centrally located two-day tournament that ends Saturday night. The tournament is perfect for experienced and novice competitors alike. We are happy to introduce you to our compact campus in the middle of Longview.</p>
<p>We offer IPDA Debate, NPDA Debate, NFA LD and British Style Debate and all AFA IE’s + Editorial Commentary. Most events will have Novice and Open divisions. Students who place will receive Medals. All Finalists will receive a suitable certificate. Sweepstakes awards for a 4-year school division and Community College sweepstakes division.</p>
<p>We hope to single flight IPDA debate and will make every effort to do so but <strong>we allow you to cover 4 IPDA entries with each judge you provide</strong>. We prefer to have your judges more than your money. However, based on past entries the schedule is currently set for double flighting IPDA.</p>
<p> We anticipate between 12 and 20 schools and hope you can attend. There is no tournament quite like the Smelt Classic. </p>
<p><em> </em><strong>Entry Deadline: 5:00pm Tuesday October 29th. Please enter at forensicstournament.net. Email questions to</strong><em> dschabot@lowercolumbia.edu. </em></p>
<p> Sincerely,</p>
<p>Dr. Dan Schabot</p>
<p>Director of Forensics</p>
