Apple Valley 11/7-8

The tournament is November 7-8. You don't have school on Friday. Everyone
competes on both days.

On Friday, we will take a bus (time later, but probably around 1) from Lakeville North to Apple Valley. (If getting a ride from home to North is the only reason you couldn't otherwise go, we will find a ride for you).

Friday, we will go to four different schools (Varsity is at Apple Valley HS, JV at Valley Middle School, Novice at Falcon Ridge MS and Public Forum at Scott Highlands MS). We will not take a bus back because it would take too long to go to all of the schools, so you will need to have parents pick you up (car pool).

Saturday morning, you will need to get a ride to the same building you were at on Friday. After prelims for all divisions of LD, there will be a bus to the high school. Outrounds for ALL divisions of LD will be at Apple Valley High School. Public Forum will have all rounds at Scott Highlands and have their own awards ceremony. All LDers should plan to stay through the awards ceremony at AVHS at 5:15. In the past, we have had either students competing or students wanting to observe late rounds after awards and many students who want to leave. Because of this, we have ended up with very few people on the bus and you will need to get a ride home.

Plan to carpool. If you drive yourself, you absolutely, under no circumstances are to leave until all your rounds are over (i.e. you may not leave to get food).

The following people are registered.
