>hope that you and your team will be able to join us this year.
>
>Visit the Mall of America or watch the unique "Holidazzle" parade
>outside of our tournament hotel and competition site, the Hyatt
Regency.
>All rounds of competition will be held at the Hyatt Hotel. Minnesota
>may be cold in December but we keep warm with a variety of activities.
>If you are planning on attending, the tournament staff will be more
than
>happy to make suggestions for good food and fun experiences.
>

>
>LOCATION: The tournament, once again, will be held at the Hyatt

>similar accommodations this year.
>

>divisions. The topics used will be the national topic on Russia in

>Rounds three through six will be powered. It is our intent that

>debate and after round six for LD debate. This schedule allows all to
>stay and enjoy the final rounds of debate and still be done early
enough
>to enjoy Minneapolis. We will notify you of a confirmed tournament
>schedule with your confirmation letter. Teams that do not advance to
>the quarter-finals will be eligible for awards as outstanding teams
>based on six rounds of competition.
>
