Apple Valley Tournament


LOCATIONS:
All NOVICE events will be held at Falcon Ridge Middle School
with the exception of novice extemporaneous speaking, which will be held at Apple Valley High School. All VARSITY events will be held at Apple Valley High School with the exception of varsity discussion, which will be held at Falcon Ridge Middle School. This allows the tournament to accommodate only double or triple entries in events held at the same site. Since extemporaneous speakers often share files, both divisions are in one building. Discussion will be at Falcon because it is not eligible for double entering.

Falcon Ridge Middle School
12900 Johnny Cake Ridge Rd, Apple Valley, MN 55124

Apple Valley High School
 14450 Hayes Rd, Apple Valley, MN 55124

BUS

The bus will leave from Door 7 at 6:45AM.  There will be a shuttle that will take students from the MS to the HS once the final rounds for novice are over.  We hope to return by 6:00PM.  

FOOD
There will be concessions available at both schools.  You may purchase concessions or bring your own food.
