The FCDI High School Speech and Debate Camp is free to all participants. However, a $100 deposit is required which will be refunded after camp, provided the student attends the entire duration and does not incur charges (ex. medication, supplies, etc.). Students who withdraw before June 10, 2025, will receive a full refund of $100. Those who withdraw between June 10 and June 16 will be refunded $50. No refunds will be given for withdrawals after June 16 or for students who leave camp early for any reason.
