Explorer Camp: Debate

DEBATE (EXPLORERS: AGES 13-16)

This camp is designed for campers looking to improve their communication skills and confidence. Campers will learn how to structure compelling arguments, think critically, and present ideas confidently in debates. Each day, campers will practice forming arguments, handling counterpoints, and debating various topics with peers through parliamentary debate. By the end of the week, you’ll be ready to confidently tackle any debate challenge.

Cost: $450 per week
