Subject:        DGSHS Debate, Coaching Opportunity

Unfortunately, Downers Grove South's debate coach is retiring at the end
of the year, and currently has no successor.  Although two assistant
coaches will begin next year, they are not yet ready to take full charge
of a debate team, and lack the experience necessary to become head
coaches.

Downers Grove South is a large high school of over 3,000 students located
not far to the west of Chicago.  The school has previously been highly
competitive and won the 1988 TOC, but recently has declined as our coach
became less and less committed to the team.

There will be some traveling involved; currently DGS attends only 12
tournaments in a normal year.  We are looking for someone with at
least three to four years with involvement in debate.

If you have any interest or think you know someone who might be
interested, please mail me at naisbodo@naisbodo.com and send a carbon copy
(cc:) to dgsdebate@hotmail.com.

P.S. I apologize if this is considered off-topic.  It has been eight
months since we began looking for a qualified coach, and it's a difficult
task.  If there is a more appropriate forum in which to place this
message, please let me know via email (and I will apologize personally).
