Saturday afternoon: World Championship of Public Speaking
Saturday, August 14th, 2010Thursday evening: Speech contest semifinals
Thursday, August 12th, 2010As a second-year director, I was chief judge for one of the nine semi-finals, but it wasn’t exactly hard work. WHQ staff had already recruited all the judges, timers, and ballot counters, and all I had to do was find a tiebreaker judge.
It was a great contest, we had a fantastic winner, and I can’t wait to see how he does in the finals on Saturday afternoon!
