The 2008-2009 season doesn't begin with the fall tournaments. Next season begins at Western Kentucky University. At WKU, we realize that becoming a great forensics competitor takes more than flash and style. It takes heart, substance and hard work to make national final rounds and master the activity. Held July 13-18, 2008, on the WKU campus in Bowling Green, Kentucky, the WKUSFI is an excellent choice, both for students who are only beginning their forensics careers and others who have already performed in national final rounds. This program is for both junior high and highschool students. At the WKUSFI, we take a hands-on approach to camp by combining structure with a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere that strikes a balance between educational and competitive interests while allowing students to learn at their own pace.
Costs for the camp are kept to a minimum: $325 for in-state students and $650 for out-of-state students. Our intensive, one-week program features some of the nation's best college and high school forensics coaches along with members of the 2007 International Forensics Association World Champion team, 2007 National Forensics Association-LD championship team, and the 2007 American Forensics Association and National Forensics Association-IE national champion WKU Forensics Team.
