"I’ve competed in speech and debate for 5 years, but I always find that I continue learn invaluable skills regardless of experience at debate camp. The advice, wisdom, and techniques taught at this camp have shaped me not only as a speaker, but as a child of God. I truly believe anyone can gain so much from this experience. Skill Set fosters a community and atmosphere that is unparalleled to any other activity. Debate camp is not only an astounding educational experience, but a time to build friendships and community in Christ. I’d encourage anyone, no matter what level of familiarity with debate, to take advantage of this opportunity to learn and grow together."
