Neuqua Valley Speech Team

I said in the letter to parents we would be staying at the Pere Marquette hotel. Actually, we’ll be staying in the Courtyard Peoria.

Both are in the same location (they’re literally attached to each other), but the number directly to the hotel is 309-686-1900, in case you need it.

Here is the schedule for the State Team this week!

Thursday night, we will have our Sectional runthrough at 6:00p in the Forum Room! Please invite your friends and family members to join us! (This is a mandatory event for team members.)

Saturday, we will go to Wheaton North High School for the Sectional tournament. Bus leaves from Neuqua at 6:30a (be there early) and we should be home around 7:30p. (Everyone is required to attend!)

Here is the schedule for the Sectional Team this week!

Remember: Thursday night is the runthrough and Friday is a practice for everyone based off of what we saw Thursday night!

Sign up with the coach’s name and the time(s)! And if it says “2,” make sure you sign up for hour-long blocks of time, not separate half-hours. If it says “3,” it’s a 90-minute block.

Thursday: We will have our Regional runthrough in the Main Forum Room from 2:45 – 5:45p. Everyone is required to attend!

Saturday: Plan to be at the Gold Building (not our usual meeting place!) at 6:45a. The tournament should be over around 7:00p. Everyone should be suited up as usual!

Because school was canceled on Monday, here’s the plan:

— There will be a *brief* team meeting after school on Tuesday. We need everyone there!

— If you had a practice scheduled for Monday, it will be rescheduled for Friday. Talk to your coaches.

Keep visiting this site for more updates!

Because of school being canceled, we’ll have to adjust a few things. Keep visiting this website and we’ll post more information as soon as we can.

Here is the schedule for the Regional Team this week!
