We’ll post more information on Neuqua’s speech camp soon, but for now, Akshay has a round-up of the various camps offered by Illinois colleges. No one is obligated to go to any of them, but they will certainly help you improve your skills if you’re interested!
…
Bradley University Summer Forensics Institute: This is a more expensive option but also offers much more specialized training in one category over a two-week period of time. Many returning team members have experience here. Ask them for more information! The camp runs July 10 – 23 (or you can go for a week).
Illinois State University: The only current members of our team who have been to ISU’s camp are Jonathan K. (in Extemp) and Virginia G. (in DI) — feel free to ask them questions about it. The camp runs July 17 – 29 (or you can go for a week). Note that this camp and Bradley’s camp overlap, so you could NOT do both unless you’re some sort of wizard.
Northern Illinois University’s Speech Camp: While Neuqua hasn’t had students attend this camp, our friends from Metea say that it’s a really strong (and cheaper) option. If you’re interested, the captains can put you in touch with Metea students who have attended. This camp runs June 19 – 24 and does not overlap with any of the other camps, so you could technically go to this camp and one of the others (if you really wanted to).
