The camp is entirely free! It is made up completely of volunteers who want to expand accessibility to high-quality debate instruction.

The entire camp will take place on Zoom. All lectures, lab sessions, and other instruction will be recorded and posted later on the channel.

The camp will run from August 5th to August 12th. The first portion will be guided instruction from our staff which will then be followed by a camp tournament from the 11th to the 12th. The day will be structured with lectures in the morning, guided instruction in the afternoon, and optional activities in the evening. Each day of camp will run from 10:30 AM EST to 5:30 PM EST.

After filling out the interest form, you will be sent an email facilitating the process of registering into the camp. After signing up, you will be added to the NSDI Slack where all further communication will be centralized.

We will accommodate every student to the best of our ability such that everyone can receive the instruction offered by counselors. We will prioritize debaters coming from schools with less resources and who are able to commit more time to the camp.
