Hilke Invitational
General information This information is from a tournament in a past season! This is a High School tournament in Minnesota. View manager contact information The 21st Annual Dolores Korfhage Hilke Memorial Speech Invitational
Thanks to the generosity of the family of the late Dolores Korfhage Hilke, a former South St. Paul speech great, South St. Paul is again extending this invitation to our tournament, which will be held March 9. You will note that the format of our tournament, site-scheduled, with three rounds and no finals, is especially congenial to small and mid-size teams, while still offering you and your students a rewarding, competitive experience.

REGISTRATION: We are again using www.speechwire.com for registration and scheduling. Our school can accommodate approximately 600-650 competitors—so please register by 4 p.m. Monday, March 4. After that date we will accommodate registrations only as space permits.
ENTRY LIMITS: Since our goal is to provide a rewarding tournament for small and mid-size teams, registration is limited to no more than 56 entries per team for the 13 MSHSL events. We will allow double entries. Also, we will again offer students the opportunity to try a 14th category, IMPROMPTU. Impromptu entries do not count against the team entry limit! No triple entries allowed!
IMPROMPTU: All schools registering students in impromptu are encouraged to follow the links at the bottom of the page to the impromptu instructions and some sample topics from past years . The material is there specifically to provide students a chance to practice this new and fun event prior to Saturday.
FEE: $6.00 per student. Each duo event counts as one student for purposes of assessing fees and judging obligations. Your fees are based on your registration as of March 4. There will be no refunds for drops after that time.
JUDGES: Bring one judge for each six competitors or fraction thereof. Your judge obligation is based on your March 4 registration and will NOT be affected by drops.
AWARDS: Trophies will be presented to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners in each event; with ribbons awarded through 8th place. Team trophies will be awarded to 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th place schools.
