2000 
Newark Debate Invitational

December 20, 1999

Dear Coach,

We are eager to extend this invitation to you and your team to participate in 
the 2000 Newark Debate Invitational. The tournament will be held on Friday 
and Saturday, January 28 and 29.  We will remain at our new site, East Side 
High School and hope that you will be able to enjoy the area's fine 
Portuguese cuisine during a break in your competition schedule. 

TOURNAMENT DIVISIONS AND RESOLUTIONS

We will offer competition in varsity two-person policy debate and varsity 
Lincoln Douglas debate.   The topic for the policy division is, of course, 
the 1999-2000 national high school resolution and the Lincoln Douglas 
division will utilize the January/February NFL resolution (please consult 
your Rostrum).  The MidHudson Debate League will also host novice and junior 
varsity divisions for policy and Lincoln Douglas on Saturday only.

PRELIMS, ELIMS, AWARDS, SCHEDULE

Tournament awards will begin with octafinals in both divisions and we will 
present speaker awards to the top ten speakers in the policy division. We are 
accustomed to beginning the elimination rounds at 1pm on Saturday after five 
prelims (three on Friday and two Saturday morning).  Our awards assembly is 
scheduled for 6pm on Saturday.

The Newark Public School's central administration is eager once again to 
personally welcome you and your team to our city and we plan to honor our 
superintendent for her efforts to insure uninterrupted programmatic and 
institutional support to Newark's debate programs.  Accordingly we will 
schedule an opening assembly in East Side's auditorium.

REGISTRATION AND FEES

There is no limit on entries per school in either division and judge 
requirements are the usual one judge per two policy teams or four Lincoln 
Douglas debaters.  Entry fees are $10 per school, $25 per policy team and $15 
per Lincoln Douglas debater.  Judges may be hired at $100 for two teams or 
three/four LDers and $50 for one team or one/two LDers.

DEADLINES AND PHONE NUMBERS

The deadline for mailed registration is January 24 (January 21 if you are 
hiring judges).  If you need to talk to us by telephone please call Brent at 
(973) 761-0772 , Havier at (973)  or Jonathan at (201) 465-3061 or 
jaalston@aol.com.  Please call in the evening.  Neither Brent nor Havier are 
teaching at Science High  and while Jonathan is, we expect that calls to the 
school will be lost in the shuffle.

FINAL REGISTRATION

Final registration will take place from 1:00pm - 2:30pm in the auditorium of 
East Side High School.  Debaters not registered by 2:30pm will forfeit round 
one.  Any team, LD  or hired judge drops made after 5pm on Thursday, January 
27 are acceptable but there will be no changes in fees.

HOUSING AND SHUTTLE

We apologize that we are not prepared to offer housing as a tournament 
service.  The continuing upheaval in the area hotel industry has caused the 
closing of the hotel we used for the past two years.  We are currently 
negotiating for the best possible rates at several sites and will finalize 
arrangements by the end of this week.  At that time we will mail you hotel 
information.  Thank you for your patience in this matter but we feel an 
obligation to get you the best possible rates by playing the hotels against 
each other.

Very truly yours,

Brent Farrand                   Jonathan Alston
