CONTACT PERSON: Ryan Peoples CELL PHONE: 440-668-9370 NOTE: If you “txt msg” me, please leave your name/school in the message. Please do the same for e-mails, actually. E-MAIL: bmhs4n6@gmail.com Judge Quotas:
Online registration will end at 7:00 PM Thursday, January 8 (or until the tournament fills capacity). Coaches will be able to drop entries until 7:00 A.M. Saturday (1/10/15), but teams will be charged for all competitors registered as of 7 PM Thursday, January 8, 2015. If I need to close registration early (or if I decide to extend the registration deadline), I will notify coaches via SpeechWire email. Due to a wrestling event taking place concurrently at BMHS, please tell your bus drivers to park across the street from the high school, at (former) Roehm Middle School (especially the back lot, which can be accessed from Eastland Rd.) Or they can park at the Junior High, where there is a large, usually vacant parking lot; this option would be handy for transporting debaters back to the high school in the afternoon, too. We hope to see you on the 10th! Happy Holidays!
