Introducing the 2015 Wake Debate Summer Experience

Earliest Bird for Policy Debate - June 14-21, 2015

The Earliest Bird is a workshop for a new era in high school debate. The idea is simple: debaters learn best when they debate challenging opponents in front of quality judges. The Earliest Bird brings those competitors and critics together in a one week intensive camp. Each day of the workshop, debaters will have three full debates and give three rebuttal redos in front of some of the premier judges in high school and college debate. The evidence for the debates will be produced by the national champion Wake Forest University Debate Team and distributed to the Earliest Bird debaters weeks in advance so the workshop can focus on in-round performance.
  • Designed for students entering their 2nd or 3rd year of debate
  • 3 intensive debates and rebuttal reworks per day
  • Focus on developing championship debate skills
  • Outstanding staff of judges for developing competitive success
  • Spend a week on the lovely Wake Forest campus
  • Starts early (June 14-21) so students can get a jump before they go to longer camps
