Uno

So, we are 1 week away. 1! This means crunch time. As witnesses, we need to know our witness statements forward, backwards, and sideways. As attorneys, we need to communicate with our witnesses what we want from them. 

So. One week. (Freak out session not necessary. I'll take care of it for you...)





 OK. See ya later.

Welcome

Hello,

My name is Laura. I currently live in Athens, Ohio, but I will be moving to Roseburg, Oregon in October. I plan to start a Mock Trial Club as soon as I get there. I have had some really great experiences with Mock Trial here in Ohio, including going to the State Final Competition. You can watch the video of that competition here. Mock Trial is similar to moot court and is explained here. This blog will be the official blog of our team, but as there is no team yet, it is not a good representation of our team. For a sneak peek at how a thriving team's blog looks, visit the blog I have posted on the side.

If you live in Roseburg and are interested in joining or would like more information, please feel free to post a comment below.
