I am honored and excited to invite you to the inaugural Raven Invitational at Atherton High School on January 20, 2024! Your presence and support would mean a lot to us as we embark on this exciting journey. We're committed to making the Raven Invitational a fantastic experience for all participants.

ADDRESS: Atherton High School, 3000 Dundee Rd, Louisville, KY 40205

EVENTS: We will be offering all KHSSL Senior Speech events as well as Congressional Debate. Coaches can register an unlimited number of contestants in each category, though only the top three will count toward sweepstakes. Students may triple in all speech events; students competing in Congress may enter one IE event and should compete in that event first before proceeding to Congress. Students competing in Congress may not compete in extemp.

ONLINE BALLOTS: All judges must have a linked Tabroom.com account to be registered. They should bring a computer or tablet with them to the tournament, as it is difficult to judge from a cell phone.

HOTEL: One of our team parents put together a hotel block for us! Just mention the Raven Invitational for discounts. The hotel is Staybridge Suites Louisville-East, 11711 Gateworth Way, Louisville, KY 40299
