The Eastlake High School Falcon Speech and Debate Team would like to welcome you to the Eastlake Spooktacular Tournament!

The tournament will be IN-PERSON at Eastlake High School on October 25 & 26, 2024.

We will be offering the complete set of events in IE’s and LD, PF, and Congressional Debate.

If any events fail to meet qualifying numbers, then the event will be dropped.

LD Topic: Resolved: The United States ought to require that workers receive a living wage.

PF Topic: Resolved: The United States federal government should substantially expand its surveillance infrastructure along its southern border.

Congressional Debate will be debating the following pieces of legislation from the TFA Fall 2024 Docket.

Prelims: 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 (in that order)

Finals: 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 (in that order unless the chamber chooses to rearrange it using proper procedure)

Please refer to the schedule for event times and cross-entry rules. All cross-entries are
at the student’s own risk. If a student does not make their round on-time they may be
dropped, regardless of the reason. Out-rounds will be paneled only if we have enough
judges available. We will break brackets in debate out-rounds.
We will do our best to accelerate the schedule if/when possible, so please pay close
attention to the postings and updates.

Eastlake students will be competing at their own tournament.

Student Congress will take place in the Library, and SCEI Room. Signs will be posted for convenience.
