Meeting locations!
by cuds@lists.ncf.ca
Hi there everyone,
We've heard back from the room booking people, and now have a location for
the meetings. They are:
Wednesdays at 7:00pm in Loeb Building rm. D487
Fridays at 3:30pm in Tory Building rm. 204
The first meeting will be this coming Wednesday, the 14th, at 7:00pm.
Also, the Novice training session will be held this coming Saturday, the
17th, from 9:30 through the afternoon. We will be meeting in Tory
Building, room 204. Attendance is required if you want to attend the
Novice tournament at the end of the month. (For extenuating
circumstances, contact us.)
Two last things: First, just to clarify, the Novice tournament in
Sherbrooke isn't entirely free. We will require a $20 payment from
everyone going to ensure that you commit to the tournament. Details will
be coming on Wednesday.
Second, again we very much need experienced debators for the Saturday
Novice session in the afternoon. If you can come, then please email
president(a)carletondebate.org.
See everyone Wednesday.
Cheers.

WELCOME
First off, I'd like to extend a warm welcome to everyone either
returning to debate for another year as well as those who have just
signed up for the mailing list over the summer or at Prelude. We
strongly encourage anyone to come out to the meetings. Whether it's
just to work on your public speaking and argumentation, or if you want
to give inter-varsity tournaments a try, everyone is welcome to attend.
MEETING TIMES
Meeting times have been set for the year. However, meeting location is
still pending. Hopefully the booking will be confirmed within a couple
days, and the locations will be sent out and posted on the website as
soon as they're available. The meeting times are Wednesdays at 7:00pm
and Fridays at 3:30pm. The time of the weekly business meeting will be
determined shortly.
The first meeting of the year will be this coming Wednesday, the 14th.
NOVICE TRAINING SESSION AND TOURNAMENT
It's that time of year again... the smell of fresh novices in the air!!
A "novice" is anyone who hasn't debated in inter-varsity university
tournaments before, even if you've debated in high school for years. On
the weekend of September 30th to October 2nd, the Central Novice
Championships will be held in Sherbrooke, Quebec. Carleton will be
sending several teams, everything but food and beverages is covered by
the club. Honestly, it's a blast.
To avoid sending people completely unprepared, on top of the regular
club meetings we will be holding a full-day preparation session for
Novice debators on Saturday, September 17th, from 9:30am until we're
done (let's say 4-5pm). We'll provide the lunch, you show up with pen
and paper. Anyone who makes it out to this session and shows some
commitment to the club will be sent to Sherbrooke if they're interested.
CALL FOR HELP FROM EXPERIENCED DEBATORS FOR NOVICE TRAINING
As part of the novice training will be a couple Pro-Am rounds, where a
novice will be paired up with an experienced debator (if possible).
Obviously, since we're expecting a good number of novice debators, we're
going to need a good number of experienced ones. Please try to open a
couple hours in the afternoon of the Saturday to help out (say from
1-5pm). Lunch will be provided if you can show up.
If you're able to make it, please email Ben at president(a)carletondebate.org
EXECUTIVE OPENING
Just another reminder that the executive position of VP External is
open, following the resignation of Wayne Chu, who is now beginning his
graduate studies at U of T. The VPX is "Responsible for organizing
Society participation in external debating events and maintaining the
sign up list for external tournaments." The byelection for the position
will take place at the second meeting of the year (Friday, September
16th). Anyone wishing to run for the position may present themselves
for it then.
CUDS SWEATSHIRTS
Finally, the sweatshirt order from last year is in. If you ordered a
sweatshirt custom-made, then it should be here. Also, there is a good
number of un-personalized hoodies available. Since I don't own a car, I
do not intend on lugging them around with me, so if you want your
sweatshirt, please email me saying what meeting you will be at, and I
will bring it. Alternatively, feel free to organize to swing by my
house to pick it up.
They are royal blue hoodies with the CUDS logo on the breast and "CUDS"
embroidered on the hood. The cost is $17.50 each. To order one or to
arrange pickup, email Ben at president(a)carletondebate.org
Thanks for reading to the end. Hope to see everyone out next Wednesday.
Cheers.
