Invitation

October 16, 2018

Dear Friends:

You are cordially invited to attend the 37th Billy Tate Southern Bell Forum on the campus of Montgomery Bell Academy in Nashville, Tennessee. Competition will begin on Saturday, January 5 and will run through Monday, January 7, 2019.

Our goal is to provide the finest hospitality with the most competitive policy debate experience available. We are certain that our many hospitality offerings and quality of awards will assure you that we are not profit-oriented.

In order to ensure your school’s participation, please enter at your earliest possible convenience. Please read carefully all information and adhere to the stated deadlines. The competitive field is limited to 64 teams. Schools may enter up to two teams, with the “top” teams from each school receiving priority. Once capacity is reached, we will be forced to refuse additional requests to attend.

Sincerely,

Kevin Hamrick

Director of Debate
