Patriot
Stars & Stripes Spectacular
October 18, 2014
Dear Coach:
We are pleased to invite you to our 23rd Annual Patriot Stars and Stripes Spectacular at Lincoln High School! This year we will continue to have a semi-final round in the competition as well as finals. This has proven to be a wonderful way to see more students compete in a fourth round and walk away with an award. Finalists will compete a total of five rounds like last year, and all individual finalists will take home a trophy. In addition to the school sweepstakes trophies, we will also award one student an individual “Star of the Spectacular” sweepstakes trophy as we have done in the past.
ENTRIES
Each school may enter an unlimited number of contestants in each of the seven divisions: Humorous, Dramatic, Duo, Poetry, Storytelling, Non-Original Oratory, and Reader’s Theatre. However, no student may be entered in more than two divisions.
** Entries MUST be received by 5:00 PM Wednesday, October 15! **
**An e-mail will be sent to you within 24 hours of entering the contest. If you do not receive a confirmation e-mail, please call/text me at 261-4835**

Each school must provide one qualified adult judge (college students are acceptable) for every five contestants or fraction thereof. A limited number of judges are available for a fee of $60.00.
Sioux Falls schools are expected to find their own judges. It is highly recommended that all head and assistant coaches judge. We want to provide the best judges for our students. All judges are expected to be available through the final round.
AWARDS
All individual finalists (top 6 in each event) will receive their “stars” by being awarded trophies. Reader’s Theatres will receive one trophy for the group and medals for each individual. All individual semi-finalists (7– 12th places) will receive their “stripes” with being awarded medals for reaching the semi-final round. Sweepstakes awards will be presented to the top two “AA” and “A” schools. Sweepstakes points will be earned by a school’s best two entries in each event.
