Dear UIL Coordinator/Sponsors:
Looking for a tournament? Look no further than Princeton High School for the 15th Annual Spring Classic Tournament. The tournament will be held on Friday & Saturday, January 6 & 7, 2012. For those who haven't been here before and think we are too far away, we are located 8 miles east of McKinney and 25 miles west of Greenville on Highway 380.
Events: All UIL Events (no Ready Writing) along with HI, DI, OO and Duo. The schedule is based on the one-day Regional schedule except for DEBATE & JOURNALISM. There is no limit to the number of students you may enter in an event. We will be using Invitational A Material. Current Events will be an original test. We will also have 3 sessions of Student Congress, one session on Friday, and two sessions on Saturday.
Journalism – This year we are doing something very special. Instead of just conducting the events Bobby Hawthorne and Lori Oglesbee will be conducting training sessions prior to each contest. The cost is $40 per student, which covers all training sessions and all 4 events.
Entry Deadline is NOON on Thursday, January 5, 2012.
