MDAW Summer Speech & Debate Camp

THIS SUMMER, JOIN US FOR DEBATE DAY CAMP!

The Minnesota Debate and Advocacy Workshop (MDAW) for middle and high school students is open for registration!

We are so excited to return to in-person summer camp on Augsburg University’s campus in 2022! Join us for deep learning, skill building, fun, and community this summer.

MDAW is a collaborative effort between The Minnesota Urban Debate League (a program of Augsburg University) and The University of Minnesota Debate Team. Our goal is to increase access to speech & debate for schools, coaches, and students entering 5th – 12th grade providing a high quality, virtual summer camp experience to students in the Twin Cities Metro, the Upper Midwest region, and across the US!

Scholarships, discounts, and payment plans are available. Early Bird until 4/1.
