Debate Summer Camp
Experience our core components, designed for success.
An ADI program is never just a class. Our multi-faceted approach to debate education guarantees an engaging, effective, and individualized curriculum for every student at affordable cost of $800 for two weeks.
1. Lab
Labs serve as campers' classrooms. These small groups, organized by age and experience level, allow instructors to teach individualized lessons and lead engaging activities to reinforce learning.

2. Workshop
Led by experts in their fields, campers choose and attend camp electives to craft their ideal curriculum and enrich their debate education by exploring their own individual interests and passions.

3. Showcase
We believe in learning by doing and equip students with valuable debate skills in a hands-on camp tournament. At the end of the session, we invite families to celebrate our debaters' progress!

All attire is casual. On the last day, we will encourage campers to dress up for our family showcase
is extended day available?
Unfortunately, we are not able to offer an extended day program; the latest pick-up time from an ADI summer program is 3:20PM. We encourage students to carpool to camp and are happy to help connect local families.
is adi a good fit for BEGINNERS?
Yes! About half of our students have never attended a speech and debate program, and ADI is a wonderful environment to introduce elementary and middle school students to the activity. We organize our debate students by age and experience to help maximize every camper's learning.
