Thank you for registering your child(ren) in the upcoming DFW Youth Speech Contest on Saturday,
July 30, 2016 at Collin College Spring Creek Campus.
We sincerely welcome you and hope that your child(ren) will get the most out of this fun and
educational experience! Please read the following instructions carefully. Should you have further
questions, please feel free to contact us.
Before the contest:
1. Double check your registration and payment. Make sure the name is spelled right and
reconcile your bank account for payment confirmation. Please contact
dfwyouthspeechcontest@gmail.com if you need to update your registration information or
have questions about payments. On-site registrations will not be accepted.
2.
Open these two files attached to this letter: the Contestant Information Card and the Classroom
Assignment. Please print out the Contestant Information Card and fill out every field on the
card except the Speaking Order # (Each contestant will draw a speaking order number at
the registration check-in table on the event day). You should have all the information needed
for the card. You can find the Group/Room # from the Classroom Assignment file. When youre
done, cut off the card along the border lines and put it in a safe place where you can easily find
it. You must bring this card to the check-in table on the event day. This will reduce the
possibility of human error on the registration information and save a lot of time at the check-in.
3.
** There is a 30 second grace period at the beginning and the end of the Timing Requirement
range. Due to time constraints, once a contestant reaches 31 seconds after the red
card maximum time, the timers will say times up and start to clap.
The green card will be held up when the contestant meets the minimum time. The yellow card will
be held up when the contestant meets the midpoint time. The red card will be held up when the
contestant meets the maximum time. Timing of the speeches will begin with the first word
or gesture.
