The Northwest College Forensics Program and the Charlotte Patrick Speech and Debate Society extends to you a cordial invitation to attend the 53rd ANNUAL TRAPPER RENDEZVOUS FORENSICS TOURNAMENT to be held in Powell, Wyoming, on October 28-29, 2022. Our goal is to provide good competition at a reasonable price and in a reasonable amount of time. Our intention is to host you in-person in Powell. However, should the need arise, we will alter the format to a virtual one.

The 2022 Rendezvous will feature: 6 preliminary and 2-4 elimination rounds (depending on entries) in three divisions of parliamentary debate and two divisions of IPDA. PLEASE NOTE: Students will not be able to enter both IPDA and Parliamentary Debate. Should the need arise we reserve the right to collapse divisions in parliamentary debate. In addition, the Rendezvous will feature two preliminary rounds and two elimination rounds in one open division for eleven individual events. Please note that all individual events will follow AFA-NST rules and format. We also offer an open division of British Parliamentary Debate.

This invitation includes a copy of the regulations, a schedule of events, and contact information. A motel list for Powell and Cody is included, and we encourage you to make early reservations. The tournament entry should be received no later than Tuesday, October 25. Entries will be facilitated by the Forensicstournament.net website.

We look forward to hosting you and your squad.

Cordially,

Bob Becker
