Neuqua Valley Speech Team

1) You should’ve received an email from Mehta. If you didn’t, leave a comment here and let us know!

2) Turn in your health forms and activity fees to La Scola ASAP! We have very few forms at the moment!

3) Our next meeting, a brief one, will be Tuesday after school in D219. See you then!

The team has been posted here (PDF)!

Congratulations to everyone who made it and many thanks to everyone who tried out. It’s never easy choosing from so many of you, and if you didn’t make it, we hope you will consider trying out again next year.

Our first meeting will take place on Monday afternoon at 2:45p in D219. This meeting is mandatory — if there are any problems with attending, you *must* contact Mr. Mehta.

In the meantime, if you are on the team, we need to make sure you are registered on this website so you can eventually sign up for rehearsal times. All you have to do is leave a comment on this post, using your real name and your regular email address. (You don’t need to fill in the website line.)

Just leave the comment “Save the drama for the llama!” and I’ll approve you ASAP.

Thanks for your cooperation and congratulations to everyone!

A big thank you to all of you who auditioned this week!

We will be posting the new team roster on this site at 8:00p Friday night. Come check out the site at that time! We wish you the best of luck.

To those who don’t make the team this year, we hope you consider trying out again next year. With over 100 auditioners, this process is never easy, and we really appreciate your willingness to put yourself out there.

For anyone interested in auditioning for the Speech Team this year, here is the Audition Packet (PDF)!

Download it. Read it. Love it.

New members must bring The Form (Page 8, completely filled out) on the day of auditions.

Returning members must bring The Form and The Extended Form (Pages 8-9, completely filled out) on the day of auditions.

Care to see videos of people performing in the different categories? Links are here and here 🙂

For anyone interested in attending the Neuqua Valley Speech Team Summer Camp, you can download the application here (PDF)!

The camp is for current team members, incoming freshmen, and anyone else interested in learning more about public speaking.

A few things to note:

• The camp will take place August 6^th-10^th from 8:00-11:00a
• The activities at camp will change from the past. We’re still working out the exact details, but rest assured these changes will benefit everybody!
• The cost is $175 and all checks should be made out to Wildcat Speech.
• If you are interested in attending, please let me know ahead of time so I can get the appropriate amount of materials.

The date for banquet is set for Tuesday, April 10^th from 6:00 – 9:00p. It’ll take place at Tamarack Golf Club (just like last year).

The cost will be $13/person (that includes a pizza/pasta/brownies/cookies buffet) and you’re welcome to bring family members. Checks should be made out to Wildcat Speech. Please return your checks to La Scola in B100 — we must have your money in by Friday, March 23^th.

We tried to accommodate as many people as we could! My apologies if you have a conflict that night.

If you are interested in applying for Team Captain, you must fill this out (PDF) and turn it in to Mehta (in D100) by Friday, March 9^th.

(If you’d like to direct the Performance in the Round, apply using this form as well!)

For all seniors who have been on the team for at least three years, you can download the application for the David Scheidecker Memorial Scholarship here!

It will be due Monday, March 5^th.

Sorry for posting so late! Here is the information you need for Saturday! The Sectional tournament takes place at Downers Grove South High School!

Who’s going where?

Everyone’s going!

When will it end?

We should be back by 6:30p.

What time should you be at Neuqua?

Bus leaves at 6:30a. Be there early!
