Hello!
The Ohio State Forensics Program cordially invites you to join us at the fun and festive Ohio State Holiday Frolic Forensics Tournament on December 4th and 5th. 2015. The Frolic will be the first half of a swing with the Otterbein Frolic Some More Tournament hosted by Otterbein College, also in the Columbus area, on December 6th, 2015 (a separate entry must be registered at the “Frolic Some More” webpage).
This year’s Frolic will feature varsity and novice divisions where warranted in all eleven AFA events, NFA-LD Debate. Awards will be given to all contestants advancing to elimination rounds, the top LD speakers, the top five pentathlon competitors, and open and small school sweepstakes.
Preparations for this year’s Frolic have been ongoing since the beginning of the summer to guarantee a well run, fun, festive, and competitive tournament. It is our sincere hope to build on the successes of past Frolics and offer you the best tournament experience.
Finally, you won’t want to miss the traditional Team Sing before awards on Saturday. Team Sing is a forensics related performance sung to the tune of a holiday song. If you are tentatively planning to attend the Frolic and want to enter the Team Sing, send an informal call or email by the entry deadline. Based on the rough estimate of those entering, we will announce on the IE-L and reply with email what the Team Sing time limit is for each team, but plan on 10 minutes or less. This should allow everyone to participate while also keeping the total time for all performances.
We hope we can be your final stop before the holiday season and can’t wait to see you!
