Hi all, 

I am sending you the schedule for Ljutomer Debate Weekend, organised by 
Gimnazija Franca Miklošiča Ljutomer and ZIP next weekend. 

I would also like to inform and invite you to the next International Highschool 
Debate Tournament we are organising from 12th to 16th of March in Postojna. 

And the ones who do have the middle school programme to the International 
Middle School Debate Tournament, which will be held also on the weekend of 
15th of March. 

More about both tournaments in December. Best, Bojana
