Event Description:
o This event should imitate a banquet situation
- Time: 4 - 6 minutes. If the speaker goes over a 30 second grace period the contestant may not be awarded first place in the round. Likewise if the speaker uses less than 4 minutes.
o The group (real or fictional) being addressed should be clear.
o The intent of ADS is to entertain, but the speaker must also develop an idea. Material presented must be original.
o Delivery may be through memorization or use of notes on one side of a 4 x 6 card, but a text may not be used.
o Emphasis should be placed on the concept of “speech.” While humorous quips and jokes are appropriate, they must have purpose and fit the occasion.
