Oral Interp has come to a close; the team was successful with three events qualifying for the state competition on December 6th and 7th in Sturgis. The state qualifiers this year are Erica Cahoy in the Non-Original Oratory category, Kate Swier in the Storytelling category, and Abby Gretshmann and Ella Hamilton in the Duet category. Erica Cahoy was the only senior this year. She has been in Oral Interp for four years, and as this was her last year, she will be missed. Our coach, Carol Swier has provided some comments: “Thirteen Oral Interpretation students have had a very successful season this year. They competed in six contests, winning the Karl Mundt Sweepstakes' Trophy at Dakota State in Madison and also taking home the District 3B first place honors. Working with these talented performers has been a joy. I look forward to watching them compete in the future.”
