What's speech?
Speech is made up of 14 events, excluding PIR, and competes in competitions throughout the months of November through February on Saturdays. If you are able to sacrifice 1- 2 days a week and 1- 2 Saturdays a month, commitment will not be an issue. There are events for people who like drama, acting, comedy, presentations, speaking, the news, writing, reading, poetry, and ted talks. There's even an event called Radio Speaking. If you want a quick overview of the events view the slideshow below!
