Mock Trial Teams
We would like firm commitments at next Wednesday's Govt Club Meeting (September 22) for those who would like to be on either a Montgomery team or a Scrimmage team. The price goes up on October 1 for registration, so we would love to see everyone that is going to Montgomery signed up before then. (This costs enough, without paying late fees!!!)
District Meeting, Sunday 19 Sept
District Meeting, Sunday 19 Sept
We are meeting at CLC at 11:30 on Sunday. My apologies for cutting into church times, but I don't set the times of these things.
We do have a second vehicle available, so if all the "maybes" turn into "yes", we should still be fine.
There is no cost to attend District Meeting, but students need to bring $10 - $5 for gas and $5 for lunch on the way to the meeting.

Mock Trial Costs
There is a $10 registration fee to be on either a Scrimmage Team or a Competition Team. (That includes one copy of the case; there will be a $1 fee for each case that I have to replace because students lose or forget their cases.)
To confirm space on either type of team, I need the $10 payment and the signed participation form from the alyig website: http://www.alyig.org/register/11registrationForm.pdf
The registration fee will be the only cost for students on the Scrimmage teams. Members of the Competition teams will need to pay $220 - $245 in advance to the YMCA (depending on which deadline they meet), and an additional $100 to the Club the weekend of the event. The YMCA fee includes the price for attending the competition, two of our nights in Montgomery, most of our meals, and a t-shirt. The $100 that the Club collects pays for our other night in the hotel, an additional couple of meals, and our gas.
Questions, just ask: Cathy at cmmjaime@alum.mit.edu
