U Bus 2 Us

2025 — Mountain Home, ID/US

Welcome to Mountain Home High School's U Bus 2 Us tournament! We are excited to have you this coming January 10 and 11! Here are a few things to know:

  1. All 14 Idaho speech events will be offered. There will be NIETOC bids for the seven national events: Duo, HI, DI, Extemp, Inform, OO, and POI. Number of bids will be determined at the tournament based on entries.

  2. Open divisions of Public Forum, Lincoln Douglas, and Congress will be offered. With enough interest, we will also offer Big Questions. Public Forum will use the NSDA January topic (to be announced on December 1). Lincoln Douglas will use the NSDA Jan/Feb topic. Congress legislation will consist of D3 Spring docket, supplemented by legislation from non-D3 schools (2 per school to be sent to alfredson_ar@mtnhomesd.org by December 20) The docket will be released on December 27.

  3. For judges, you are welcome and encouraged to bring judges with you! Mountain Home will have a large pool of judges from the community to draw from, so if finding judges willing to travel is difficult, let us know! We will get it covered.

  4. MHHS will be offering concessions (cash only) located next to the small gym where students will wait between rounds. Students are also welcome to door dash or walk to close destinations, such as Maverick and Briesta.

If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to alfredson_ar@mtnhomesd.org.

Schedule will be up soon :)
