Hello all! Some important dates are listed below. All members should encourage their parents and guardians to attend these Booster hosted events.

Booster Board Meeting
7:00pm
November 7
RHS Commons
Interested in helping out with the board? Have some great ideas for our team? Want to positively impact the future of RHS Speech and Debate? Consider joining the Booster Board! With a low time commitment, this organization is the reason why we are successful as a team and as a little family! We NEED you!

Parents Night
7:00pm
October 11
RHS Commons
Come meet our Booster Board, learn about the team, see a student performance, and hear some important announcements about our home tournament! All parents are encouraged to attend this short meeting.

Judges Training
7:00pm
October 26
RHS Commons
All students are required to provide a judge for every three tournaments that they attend. We will train parents, older siblings, family friends, grandparents, and more to be the best possible judge throughout the year. With contributions from both student competitors and other parents who have judged both virtually and in-person, this will allow you to be comfortable and confident throughout the tournament season. New, newer, and experienced judges are welcome to attend, as we will review the differences between virtual and in-person judging, as well as the basics.

As a reminder, all students AND parents must fill out the following forms to attend ANY tournaments during the season!

1. Student Intake Forms (or copy and paste this link into your browser: https://forms.gle/2TaSbZ4pVw7kDoqWA)
2. Parent Intake Forms (or copy and paste this link into your browser: https://forms.gle/ggWdVTxHuednJ57V9)
3. SchoolCash Permission Slips (will be emailed to you once your name is added to the list) – Students will have to complete this for BOTH the Fall and Spring Semester, even if they are only attending one tournament during that time period!
